My 7th birthday in 1992, my mom found me two of the secret surprise ponies and two of the rainbow babies. I had no idea those would be my last.

I mean they're all worth something, I wouldn't throw them out or anything. Schleich figures are incredibly expensive. The little Blythe doll is from an LPS set. The fairy is the queen from Tinkerbell, Queen Clarion?? Not sure exactly. The shoes are possibly Bratz or Moxie, I'd lean towards Moxie because of the actually walkable heel height. The SSC doll, from this angle I can't tell of its a real one with a haircut or if it's a knockoff but that should be at least a couple bucks as well.

I'm in with a 2 year old in tow. I don't normally come here on the arena anymore, if someone makes a fb group or even group msg please let me know. I'd love to be able to keep up on details.

On my phone at work so please excuse typos.

After my email to buttercreamdream it made me realize how retarded it all was that I haven't been able to touch my own  stuff in months.. So I talked to Nick and got him to talk to his dad, who gave the guy upstairs an ultimatum, so we were able to go in and perform a pony bin rescue operation. Pregnant me was exhausted and passed out as soon as we finished, so I didn't get to go through things yet. If I'm still aware this evening I'll try, otherwise it'll be next week.


Here's what I have today. No names etc because I'm at work on my phone but I do have a stack of receipts.


To Ontario: LC731981761US.   (customs)


The rest are USPS delivery conf

To zip 97413: 0311 3360 0000 9055 7280

To zip 48708: 0311 3260 0000 9055 7273

To zip 20878: 0311 3260 0000 9055 7266

To zip 19808: dc# 0311 3260 0000 9055 7259

To zip 43055: dc# 0311 3260 0000 9055 8058

some first class some priority based on size/box. If any #s don't work its probably a typo on my part. The rest will be coming soon.

hey guys, this is a quick reply to let you know what's up.

Right now I'm in the process of getting about half of these packaged and shipped. The reason it is half is, ready for this? There is a random guy staying with us, and he's using the "spare" bedroom where all my ponies are stored. By the time I get home from work, he's usually in there. I got lucky and got about 30 minutes of rummaging time while he was taking a shower tonight, but unfortunately it wasn't enough to go through all boxes and find everything I'm looking for. When we scrambled to get everything as neat as possible against the wall so he'd have some room, I wasn't smart enough to think about the fact that I would be NEEDING some of the things in those boxes shortly, and everything got thrown together in a huge mess. Yippee, lol.

I *should* beat him home from work by at least an hour tomorrow, which should give me a chance to get in there more and move things around. I have a LOT  more bins to go through to find these guys!

Here is what I have currently boxed up (in order of what I found, not what was drawn!) :

SDCC poster for ButtercreamDream
Tootie Tails for Avaind
Blossom plushie for lemontwist
Baby Yoyo for SwiftheartBabbit
Applejack's Farm Truck MIB for ZettaMomo.

everybody else, I absolutely have your ponies, they just got mixed back in with my ginormous 30-something storage bin collection by mistake and I need to find them again.

I also have Movie Firefly set aside for storydreamer (last I heard we don't have her addy yet).

If I can't come back with tracking numbers tomorrow, you'll probably see me Thursday. Wednesday is my fiancee's college graduation (YAY!) so I'm going to be a *little* busy that day too. :P


last thing before I go to bed - I don't know if you remember, but Meaghan.. (aka MyHatBarks) was at the very end of the list of prizes. Meaghan is one of my best friends and former roommate, but she did donate a toy to try and help the numbers go up before we had a lot of participation. So now she's the go-between, playing secretary, getting me all your information and organizing it in a spreadsheet on google docs (yes she actually made a spreadsheet.. crazy person).. and since then has taken herself off as a prize winner. I just want to ask everyone here for your opinion, is everybody participating okay with Meaghan still getting a prize as she should have originally? I don't know if I had anything she's seriously after, but I don't want to force her to be excluded just because I asked her for help. However, I will leave it up to you guys. Let me know what you think!


..oh and also, one more one last thing - I hadn't been on the "old" arena for a while either and I don't even KNOW how many PMs are there. It says I have 13 here. I don't have the time right now to read and reply to all of them, so I don't want to open anything until I know I will have time. So don't think I'm ignoring you, I'm just putting those messages off temporarily :P ButtercreamDream, I saw you said on one of the previous pages that you sent me a message on FB.. I didn't receive it, just so you know, so I'm not ignoring you either.

Okay that's enough for tonight .. have a good night everybody and I'll talk to you soon!

okay guys, here's what's up.


At the very beginning of January (basically right before the last time you heard from me) I started thinking about looking for a better job. I updated my monster resume and within HOURS I got an email about a job fair. I shrugged and went. What I got was a fantastic opportunity for what I thought would be a part time, temporary position. Never in my wildest dreams, however, did I expect for that to turn out to be full time (and probably permanent). I now have two jobs. I've also tried to keep up with my wedding plans (less than two months to go), I'm busy with an online class and trying to find a house and my MIL was in the hospital for about a week. My online time has gone from hours a day doing nothing to checking my fb and email every three or four days. That's pretty much it. This is my first time visiting this new site and I wouldn't have even realized it moved without a nudge on fb from crimsondeity. I'm sure a few of you have noticed that you haven't seen me around the arena or another site I used to be on all the time. This is why.

ABC = busy. O.O

I'm not really trying to make excuses, just explain things.

I'm sincerely sorry for putting all of you on the back burner - it's just that everything came so suddenly, I wasn't prepared and I didn't expect it.

To cookhuman, kalavista and anyone else who's stepped up and helped with your parts - thank you SO much, you guys have already done way more than I expected. (if there's anyone else who has, thank you too.. I just haven't read enough of this yet to see who you are).

to everyone else - again, I'm so sorry you all got stuck in the back. Not forgotten, just dead last on my "things that need to happen immediately" list. Today's list still has four or five things on it that I didn't get around to, and yet I still feel accomplished. Yeah, not so great. :/

As of right now, it's after 11pm here and I'm getting up at 5 to shower and get ready for work. I only work the one job tomorrow so in the evening after I get home I should be able to come back on here and go through these pages more slowly. I have a lot of back reading to do and a lot of organizing and writing things down. I will get to you though :)

I have also asked two friends if they would be willing to step in and help me get things organized and back on track. I haven't heard back yet from either.

I will be back tomorrow and I will do my best to get things on track. In the meantime if anyone would like to contact me with questions, helpful hints or angry rants you can go through my facebook, since messages (usually) get forwarded to my phone. the link is facebook.com/abrowncrayon .



see you guys soon.

-ABC
