The Week In Kardboard

09/15

Monday morning comes with the usual. Finish up this weekly recap, and the Card of the Day for Instagram and Facebook.

Other than that, it’s more or less leftover orders from the weekend.

Took the kids out to play soccer today, I haven’t done that in a while, and I’m feeling it. My legs were tired, but I enjoy it.

09/16

30 day plan.

I forgot all about this. I need to get back on track with this. Day 14. Fix the About Us section.

Again?

I thought I did that a couple of months ago.

Restock for Crystal Dominion on TCG Player and eBay.

09/17

Had a few Legacy Collection cards laying around, so I listed them on TCG Player. I got a whole bunch of boxes a while back, and nobody wants them. That’s kind of weird, maybe that means I should open them up. I haven’t done a video in a while.

Soccer Practice for the kids, we went early again and played for a bit before the coaches arrived. After that we got dinner at Wendy’s, homework, and played a game of 99 Nights.

09/18

Listed a bunch of Crystal Dominion on eBay. These ones aren’t just a restock, new foils mostly. If you need some, we got some.

We took the kids out for Soccer. That was all afternoon.

Started sorting Emissaries of Light. That’s up next for a restock.

09/19
Well, you guessed it. Restock of Emissaries of Light on TCG Player and eBay. Also listed new foils from Emissaries of Light on eBay as well.

There’s more stuff going on in the background, things I mentioned before, but I won’t speak about them until we have something going. I’ll drop hints here and there, but that’s about it.

09/20

The weekend is here, and it’s games day. Today the kids lost 4-0. And, my kids played the worst they ever did. It’s probably my fault, I had them up late. So, next week they are going to sleep early. Can’t have them fall behind on things that they enjoy doing.

I thought I was going to take my kids to a birthday party, but then they said that they didn’t want to go. That’s strange. I usually am all day at the restaurant on Saturday, but it looks like I got the night off. So, I took a nap. A long nap. And, then I went to get dinner and went back to bed.

09/21

Had to take care of things for the restaurant today. Things that I should have done yesterday.

Got home, got stuff ready to take to Storage, went to Menards, picked up a bunch of Light Fixtures. Some of those lights will be for the videos.

After that I just finished up the Weekends orders and headed to bed early. ish.

Kardboard Fantasy V – Legend of the Korners

09/08

I didn’t.

Feel better that is.

I just tried resting up, but you know how that goes. I ended up running around all day. And, when I finally got home it was time to get ready for tomorrow.

Kids, bedtime routine and dinner.

Oh, and don’t forget the leftover orders from the weekend.

09/09

“When I flush the John! The shower goes on!”

It’s time to try and fix this drain in the shower. I thought it was a simple clog, cause that’s what it usually is. I don’t know what’s in there, but I ended up breaking 2 rodders. That was not fun at all. I gave up on it after a while cause my drill got stuck to one as well.

Amateur Plumber. At your service.

Started Sorting Opus XIV. Add in the new bulk and new cards that we acquired, make it one big batch for our restock, instead of going through different piles at a time, to find the cards we need.

09/10

Restocked Opus XIV – Crystal Abyss on TCG Player and eBay.

The Kids had Soccer practice today, and we got there 30 minutes early. We had the whole field to ourselves for a while, we had some fun before their practice started.

09/11

Listed a bunch of Opus XIII – Crystal Radiance Foils on eBay.

And, I’ve been using Notebook LM. It’s a great piece of AI that you can feed it a bunch of sources, and it will give you a great summary about it.

Also started sorting Opus XV – Crystal Dominion for a restock.

Played another game of 99 Nights in the Forest. We made it to day 33. We’re going to get there, We would have gotten to a lot more days, but I thought that if I had the Bandages and dies I would be able to revive myself. Apparently that’s not how it works.

09/12

I had plenty to do today.

Listed some new Opus XIV – Crystal Abyss Singles on eBay. 90% of them are foils.

Restock for Crystal Dominion on TCG Player and eBay.

That took me quite some time. Trying to juggle Kardboard Korner and the restaurant at the same time is not fun. Usually I wait till it slows down a bit, and then I grab some cards. And, as soon as I grab them, the phone rings.

Same thing happens when I make something to eat.

99 Nights in the Forest has become a nightly thing.

09/13

Gameday once again. We finally got our jerseys! #5 and #12 for my kids. They played good today. And we won our second game! 2-1 That makes us 2-2 in the standings. I don’t know what place we are maybe I should check the website and see if that data is available.

The kids got their Halloween costumes today, and they’ve been parading around the house with them.

I was doing my running around today and there were garage sales everywhere. I had no time to stop today, by where were all of these when I was out there a couple months ago.

09/14

Other than orders, not much got done today.

My daughter wanted goalkeeper gloves. She says she wants to be a goalie. So, I did what any father would do, we went and got some. I told her, that if we get them, we’re going to have to practice everyday.

We also went out for dinner again, and can’t say that we were pleased with our food. McDonald’s would have been better, and I don’t care much for McDonald’s.

Kardboard Fantasy V

09/01

It’s Labor Day, it’s also my daughter’s birthday, so we spent the day getting ready for her party. It was just a small party, with family, but she enjoyed it. She finally got a Switch that she was asking for, plus the game she’s been wanting Animal Crossing. Or Crossy Roads as she calls it.

After it was all done, I had to put all the orders that got stacked up from the weekend.

And, hopefully these World Champions Decks 2024 will come in this week.

09/02

I was out cold today, missed my alarm, kids were late for school. And, well, we still have plenty of things to take care of.
Had some free time, so I tried organizing the office again. It will always be a work in progress. Today was more like one step forward, two steps back.

I either need more room for it, or less trading cards. I’m thinking more room.

09/03

It was School Curriculum Night.

And, that’s where my whole night was spent. I thought it would have been an hour or so. It ended up taking 3 hours. Running around to each class, meet with all their teachers. It was a little bit hectic.

Luckily, their Soccer Practice was canceled, and it gave me more time. Other wise I would have been running around like a chicken with it’s head cut off.

Finished up some orders. And, still no word about the World Champions Deck.

09/04

Called my distributor bright and early. The World Champions Decks 2024 have arrived and they will be here tomorrow. We’re going to have to get everything ready as to where we can just slap a label on them and have them sent out as soon as they arrive tomorrow.

Started sorting all the Gunslinger in the Abyss boxes that we’ve opened. We’re going to start putting these cards in our Bulk lots as well.

Played a game of 99 Nights in the Forest again. We finally saved one of the kids. And, got to day 11 again.

09/05

Patiently waiting for the World Champions Decks to come in. I’m get excited every time a UPS truck goes by, and then I’m disappointed when they don’t turn into the parking lot.

But, they finally did arrive. Only a week late. Got everyone’s pre-order sent out as soon as they did.

Restock for Gunslinger in the Abyss, on TCG Player and eBay.

09/06

Gameday!

This kids did better this week than last week, they only lost 3-1 this time. And, 2 of those goals, were because the goalkeeper was hiding from the ball. Go figure. Yes, they’re just kids, but don’t duck so the ball won’t hit you. That’s what your arms are for.

It’s ok, we’re still keeping our heads up.

After the game, I was just running around. Didn’t stop until 4PM, and after that I was just spent. Managed to get all of my orders done. And, I went straight to bed. I think I’m getting sick.

09/07

Yep, I’m getting sick.

Time to pop some Ibuprofen. And, try and get through the day.

Ended up heading out to Indiana, and have dinner with some of our kids. We picked a place that we went to years ago. Apparently they have good burgers, or did.

After we got home, I just put the kids to bed, got their lunches ready for school, and passed out. Hopefully, I’ll feel better tomorrow.

Just Around the Korner

We just got off the phone with our distributor, and our World Champions Decks 2024 are on their way. And, if all goes well, they will be here tomorrow.

With that, to whomever Pre-Ordered. First off thank you for your patience, and secondly, they will be sent out as soon as they arrive. Hopefully they will be arriving at your doorstep early next week.

I must say, that this is a great way to get somebody into the game. I would actually like to see two new players use these decks for the first time, as they go into the match blind.

That might make for a good video.

Warrior of Light at the End of the Tunnel

We’re starting to see the World Champion Decks 2024 starting to arrive at Distributor warehouses. Slowly making their way East. That means that they should be arriving in the next couple of days.

We’ve added them back on to the site. You can order some, and we’ll have them shipped out as soon as they arrive.

Delays suck.
