Ponies at rummage sale

[Haruna]

Today was a bad day at work. I work at the aftercare at a Catholic school, and as I was going through the gym to get to the kitchen, I saw that they were setting up the church rummage sale. I had known it was coming up and had fleeting thoughts of finding G1 ponies there, but I figured I wouldn't. While I was passing by the toys, though, I saw this:

I asked one of the volunteers who was setting up if they were selling anything early (the rummage sale is at 8 tomorrow), and she said nicely that I could just come the next day. I have plans tomorrow and work is a half hour from my house, so I didn't think I could make it. I was bummed.

Then, when I got off work, I saw that another volunteer was now sitting down pricing stuff with a lockbox next to her, and I risked it and asked if they were selling anything now. She said yes! Happily I went over and found the pony bag. Then -- I was very happy to hear them offer to sell it to me for $3, but then very sad to see that I had only $20s in my wallet. 

After seeing me fumble in my wallet for loose change that could possibly add up to $3 (they didn't have any change yet), the volunteer was an absolute angel. She saw from my badge that I worked there, and said that I could take the bag on the honor system and pay them back Monday! How kind, and what a blessing.

Here's what was in it:

Fakies and unidentified stuff:

Some G3.5s and two Applejacks with some accessories, and some barrettes that may be MLP?:

And these guys! I had only thought that Rattles was in the bag, since I hadn't had much time to look at it, but there was more! Splasher is in what I'm 99% sure is Baby Glory's crib, with her blanket. Rattles and Tattles have their bottles and necklaces, and two of the diapers look their size. (You can see there's a pile of diapers, lol!) It's dorky, but I know you guys understand me when I say their cheerful little faces can brighten a gloomy day.

That's lovely! Great finds. Their little faces are adorable! As an aside, I found working in schools could be very hard.
