The 30 Day Challenge

[gabumon]

April will be a month of pony hair-doing... as we savor our curremt herds!

Ok, I just got rear-ended a half hour ago!!  I'm fine, my van is amazingly fine, but  I'm shaking right now.  Looks like I picked the wrong month to give up ponies!

Good luck Tuney The same thing happened to me when i first started collecting. I had no idea my pony spending was so out of control.

I haven't purchased any ponies so far this year so it is possible.  It's also made me really appreciate the ponies i have instead of focusing on which ponies i still need.

All's good from me.  I received G2 Berry Bright in the mail and took some time to remove her hair and tail (it was cut and frizzy).  I guess I have to wait a month before I can rehair her.  Or has trading been declared okay?

Also finished restoring Bow Tie.  Her new symbols look dreadful though...  I'm thinking about taking them off and just making her a blank flank forever...

I can't. It sounds scary not buying ponies for a month.

hope you're doing okay michelle.  grab some girls from your herd and do some styling! ( if you're still shaky be sure to talk to a friend in person)

Holding strong so far, no views of sales threads, ebay or etsy so far! The real challenge will be when I have to go to Target after work, I always stop in the pony aisle, but I must resist!!

[michelle53]

That is my plan for the day...pony hair styles!  I received 2 yesterday who have dreadful hair. 
I went to Target today, and was able to resist buying ponies (I have all the Target ponies:)

Good luck everyone I've been good with my budget, as long as bills are paid and food on the table the rest is for the pony fund <3 I dont fuss at looking at what I've spent, within 3 years I spent about 6,000US on a game site. Lets just say I dont do that anymore lol

I'm sorry to hear that. Are you physically ok?

*lots of gentle pony hugs*  I'm so sorry to hear about the accident!  Are you doing okay? 

It is great to able to walk into a store and be satisfied with what you already have, isn't it?  Especially since you told us that going through that giant box of ponies you had prepped yourself to enjoy April with is already so much fun.   

I think Pony Salon is a great idea to get through this!  I recently isolated my childhood herd from the rest and I am trying to find a new display as 3/4 of it had to come down, so that is my goal... figuring out how to display most of it again.  And of course, sunfading season is beginning, so my windows are filling with little tinfoil packets. 

[michelle53]

I'm fine!  Thanks for the concern my friends:)  I did go to the doctor today to get checked out, and I am A-OK.  Everyone here is so sweet and caring, I just love you guys!! 
It felt good to walk by the pony aisle and not buy anything.  I will probably order some replacement wings this month to fix up my wingless girls, but that doesn't count...right?

Only 11 participants. There must be more...

Sorry dude.  The Maryland pony meet is the last Saturday in April and I ain't crazy.  I am reading the thread and rooting for you all though!

[Buddafly]

the MD meet is my pre-planned cheat day.  I'm not buying anything all month until that day.
