I wish a happy new year to all coin collectors, and I hope you will have more coins in your collections..
Happy New Year all. It's just a few more hours to midnight/NY in my part of the world. Enjoyed a nice family BBQ this evening and have just put my daughter (4) to bed. So it's going to be a rather uneventful NYE, but a good chance to browse CT!
May you all experience good health in 2018. If poorer health is your lot, may you have the wisdom and strength to decide how you will play the hand you've been dealt. I'm forever grateful to Elie Wiesel for his example of the spiritual truth that about the only thing we can control in life is our own attitude. Steve
Wish the best to all of you. Many kisses.. Cheers for ever.. LOL. 2018 Always Hope for the Best. Happy New Year
Happy New Year to all! 2017 has been a bit tough on the health front. My Dad is in chemo treatment for lung cancer and my niece had an epileptic seizure on Friday, her speech has not really returned yet. All we can do is hope for the best. That said, I hope 2018 brings many new coins to you all and continued fun and excitement in this great hobby of ancient coin collecting!
Well, here it is. 6:00 a.m. on New Year's Day, 2018, (and it is 25.1 degrees c. already). Whatever life threw at us in 2017, we are still here in 2018, and that alone is good. Remember, life is but a game of cards. We are dealt a hand and we play those. If we play them well, we have a good life. If we play them unwisely, our life is not so good. It all comes down to us. "I thought that I was hard done by when I had no shoes, until I met a man who had no feet." You may not get all you want in 2018, but I hope that what you do get, makes you happy.
