It’s my kids Kindergarten Graduation today. Dropped them off to school, and then it was off to wash the Jeep and decorate it. Bought some balloons and Car Paint for the windows, and it was ready. Got there with time to spare.
Sat inside watched the ceremony, and I got to tell you it makes you feel proud when your child accomplishes something. Sure it’s just Kindergarten, but at the same time, they spent their whole year going to school. And, Kindergarten isn’t what it used to be. They have actual homework, and IXLs and all of the same things that the older kids are doing.
After the ceremony, it was time for the parade. I had my son stand up out of the Sunroof, waving to the whole school as we slowly went around the parking lot twice.
Next it was time to treat him to McDonald’s cause that’s what kids like. We had time to spare so we went to the thrift store. Found nothing at the first one. Second one, we found some PS4 games at 3 dollars each. Picked up 2 Uncharted games, one was sealed, and Red Dead Redemption 2. They also had Assassins Creed III for the PS3, so I picked that one up as well.
Went to the register and all Media was 50% off. That made it an even sweeter deal.
Finally tested out the Dreamcast, and it works. Played a little bit of Capcom Vs. SNK 2. And, I think that disc isn’t an original disc. It just looks way off and the art on the cover isn’t any where near the art on the original game.
Oh, well.

They’re calling for rain tomorrow. It figures. All week no rain come Wednesday, Rain.
Went to a Thrift store in the morning, just to pass some time, before I head to the restaurant. I had 30 minutes found a Marshawn Lynch Jersey, and a Nightmare Before Christmas plush.
Orders were delivered today Final Fantasy VII Art Museum came in along with the Wii Sensor bar. I’ll finally test the two Wiis I got a couple weeks back, along with the games. Expect to see the games start popping up on eBay soon.

The kids are out of school, and it’s raining. Lucky me. I get to stay in bed for an extra 30 minutes. No Flea Market. I am disappointed, cause I like going to the one that’s today. Not that many Vendors, but there’s not that many shoppers either.
Rolled out of bed and my daughter had knocked over a cup of coffee on my desk. Yeah, I should have picked it up yesterday, but what can you do. At least I didn’t have any cards on it like last time.
Listed the Final Fantasy VII Carddass Masters up on eBay. I enjoy going through these cards, they bring out the nostalgia of playing Final Fantasy VII when it first came out.
At night we played with the Wii. We Donkey Kong Country, Sonic and Mario Kart. I was playing with my son, and we were having a great time. Laughing and poking fun at each other. But, I am not a fan of the Wii. I do not like the controls, and how they make you use the shaking of the Wiimote. I just want a controller that sits in my hand and I press the buttons. No need for gimmicks.

Had to get out there today and search for those garage sales. Only thing is that there wasn’t any worth going to.
What happened to people having Garage Sales on Thursdays? Last year I would go out and find a whole bunch of them.
Got another order of Carddass Masters. This time though a Holo Sephiroth was in them.
Did some work, on the other eBay account. Need to start getting some traction on that one as well. It’s mostly for items that are not Trading Card or Video Game related.

We did find some things today, and we’re excited. Just not too excited. Best thing we found was a copy of Stephen King’s Christine. The Book Club Version.
Listed some PS4 games on eBay, and the Final Fantasy VII Carddass Masters on eBay.
And, that’s about it for today. We stayed busy at the restaurant so didn’t get much done here. At least it’s Saturday tomorrow. That means driving from Flea Market to Flea Market. It’s calling for rain, but it shouldn’t start until after 3, so we should be good.

Woke up 30 minutes late this morning. Almost didn’t head to the Swap because I thought that all the good stuff would be gone. Then I thought, what am I laying in bed for everyone else is not looking for what I’m looking. Sure, there might be some people that do, but if I don’t go there’s a 100% chance of not finding anything.
Grabbed my son and off we went. We ended up finding a Sega Genesis, Found 2 controllers as well for it. And, Super Mario Galaxy. Everything else was priced at what I would sell them for.
Off to Robbins.
Tales of the Unknown Volume 1 The Bard’s Tale
Anyone know what that is? It’s a game for your ancient computers. And, it’s actually worth something. Especially since it has the manuals and everything that comes with it.

Sunday was a quiet day as usual. Just spent the morning putting all the orders together.
Had to run to the restaurant today, and I had forgotten about some cards that we’re delivered yesterday. So, I spent a little bit of time listing them on TCG Player and eBay.
I was looking at the inputs to the Sega Genesis, and they are not what I expected to see. That AV input. I’m wondering now if I take the cables from the Master System if they’ll work on the Genesis? Got to find a game for it first, no use figuring it out before I have a game to play.
