Hello~! Newbie to a lot, here.
« on: November 19, 2017, 03:57:44 PM »
Well, this is a completely new experience for me. Hello, nonetheless!

I was a Moderator of a fairly well-known site for about 10 years, and finally hired. They went through layoffs and I was someone who was affected. This was after losing my USMC veteran husband of over 9 years (had been together for 15 in total) to cancer.

Needless to say, I was looking for something "to do" to focus on and help me with healing, and I started falling in love with the idea of pony customization, which I have been looking for tips and tricks for. I decided to join this community since it seemed like a better fit for me than the other place I was at for a long time.

I am a rather crappy artist, classic gamer; have two wonderful meowing fluffy furballs in my life, one is almost 11 and the other just celebrated his 1st birthday; love collecting G4 ponies and gaming memorabilia, but I will jump on getting anything that has Legend of Zelda splattered all over it. I am a Dr Pepper fiend, coffee lover, chocolate hoarder.

...and I cuss a little. I like to think of myself as a classy lady with the vernacular of a Marine.

Thank you for welcoming me into your herd  :3

Thanks so much! I am excited to start something new. I've always been into MLP so it will be nice to be more active with it.

Welcome aboard! I'll warn you now: tinkering with little plastic horses is extremely addictive.

I'm still learning about customizing and this is a good community to start in.  Everyone's nice and very willing to help you out with tips and tricks.

Looks like it... I am looking at pictures that people have done and I'm drooling. The amount of creativity here is motivating.

I have collected so many junk ponies and cheapies to practice on, too. I'm giddy as a little girl on Saturday morning ready to watch cartoons, ha!

Welcome to the Arena :lovey:

I just loved this "...and I cuss a little. I like to think of myself as a classy lady with the vernacular of a Marine."  I say this all the time about myself and my husband but I switch out marine for "tradie" as the aussies say!

Look forward to seeing you around the forum :party:

Haha! Yeah, It's not often that I have a potty mouth, but when it happens something stupid happened, let it be to me or because of me  ;P

Thank you so much!

Welcome! I can't wait to see all of your customs! I know what it's like waiting for materials. I'm starting to customize Monster High dolls and I'm still waiting for some of mine. I look forward to seeing you around!
