  I promised to get a new Red book. 2016 spiral is losing pages. $5 golds are half gone

  I'll get on that today.

  And my current grey sheet is dated January 2017. Probably have been some changes since then.

  My collecting has taken an entirely new, unforeseen direction in 2019 already!

  I’m having a blast! Have added 7 dark side medals to my collection and surveying the unexplored yawning landscape from a reinvigorated overlook. Haven’t had this much fun numismatically in a long time.

  What is a manageable number? This can help me as I buy more and consider how many raw pieces to slab.

  I liked what Emerson said on these resolutions and pledges: "I will not pledge to not drink wine, not to drink ink not to lie & not to commit adultery lest I hanker tomorrow to do these very things by reason of having tied my hands."

  Dogs thought "that is not a bone"...as in "throw me a bone".

  Numismatic and otherwise?

  Like promising myself not to buy on impulse or just because the coin is shiny? NO.

  Not sure I'd call it them resolutions, exactly, but so far this winter I've been executing my plans more or less on schedule.

  No.

  I have gained rather than lost weight. My semi-serious idea for an online coin dealership is not fruitful either. The number of nice coins at reasonable prices (assuming wholesale as opposed to retail plus transaction) are small. I'm still waiting for grading to stabilize before playing the crack out game again.
