New Arrivals

I've been pretty under the weather this week, which is quite apt as it is, yet again, pissing it down. Stupid April showers. More like April downpours. So that's why the blog's been quiet but luckily I've received various ponies and won various pony auctions this week which have helped to cheer me up, as has having my hair done.

Yesterday I picked up two parcels on the way to work, one of which contained the last two of the birthday ponies I ordered. Poor things were stuck in customs for ages, they took a month to arrive. I am now the proud owner of Garden Glow, the last Sweetheart Sister I needed to complete all the Sweetheart Sisters and So Soft Wind Whistler. I also received my latest order from Taobao which containted Princess Cadance and Shining Armour as I don't want the playset they will come with when they are officially released, just the ponies themselves, so I thought 'why wait?' I ordered an extra Shining Armour to sell on eBay but he's not selling for a vast amount so I have arranged a trade with someone on the Arena for (fingers crossed) Fashion Styling Applejack.

I also received two pony lots to do up and sell on yesterday and another earlier in the week which also contained a pony for me.... German Princess Tiffany! She's gorgeous and can't wait to unwrap her from her neck brace to see what she looks like now I've cleaned her and done her hair.

I intended to list my next lot of eBay ponies on Tuesday but I just didn't have the energy! I'm shattered and I'm full of cold so I crashed and burned instead; same yesterday and same will apply tonight, though my friend Chris is trying to get me to sign up to Twitter so I may have to do that tonight unless I can pursuade him that the world won't end if this waits, along with my eBay listings, until the weekend.
