Hi Everyone, my name is Jodi, and I am from Madison, Wisconsin. I have two favorite ponies, good ol' Glory and sweet Applejack; oldies but goodies. I must have had 40-50 ponies as a child along with the first 4 playlets to come out. Out of that collection, I only have about a dozen left of my ponies and part of the Dream Castle. Have no idea what happened to the rest but I assume my parents had something to do with their disappearance.
What got me into collecting them as an adult was I was going through a very stressful time and wanted to bring back some of my happier childhood memories. I became very involved in bidding and buying on Ebay (I realize that may be a four letter word in these parts). My original plan was to try to buy back the ponies I remember having as a child. Unfortunately for my banking account, I did not stop there. My thought turned to actually collecting and displaying them. That did not pan out, and my collections has since then been sitting in storage.
So now, because all they are doing is sitting in storage, I have decided to put all, but mine from my childhood, back on the market. The strange thing is I have this compelling need to purchase/gather a few more items before I think my collection is completed before putting it out there. Weird, I know.
Looking forward to meeting you all,
Jodi
