Okay our excuse is we have been depressed, stressed out, freaked out, worn out, just about everything on the out and out. So we decided to go to the store. We went nuts at the store. I already have five of the six 35th Anniversary ponies. I decided I wanted one to open. So I got another one. Then I discovered my childhood colorforms were being remade, my childhood spirograph set was remade. I found a Wonder Woman t-shirt in the men's department. And of course R2 found Optimus Prime. It was a Optimus shoptimus event. To make matters worse we left Target and went to the Disney Store. They were having a sale. Medium sized stuffed animals for $10. How was I supposed to leave Marie and Lady there by themselves? They are so soft and wonderful . I wanted flower and I wanted Maximus and I could have easily come home with Donald and Daisy I could have spent $100 on stuffed animals. Is there a medication for this problem? I need it bad. I can't believe how perfect these 35th Anniversary ponies really are. They feel and look identical to the originals. They are so much nicer than what we had during the G3 phase.
I have already thoroughly enjoyed my Holly Hobbie colorforms. It took me down memory lane and I know I'm going to enjoy this toy for many years.

Oh and I do this ALL of the time. My kids rooms are busting at the seams with toys and I am constantly on the prowl. We do not eat out or do a lot of things other families do (we are a bit alternative), so I kind of justify it as OK. I have simmered down a bit in the past year though - LOL! Well kinda!
 
I spent hours with my HH set as a kid. I know I had another set but I can't remember which one it was. I am wondering if it was Raggedy Ann. Hmmmm mind is drawing a blank. I kind of messed up my neck playing with the Spirograph all day. Man that was fun. I am paying for it today. Booooooo I never eat out either, but my biggest reason is that food out is toxic for me. The sad thing is I am obsessing about going back to the Disney store to get Pua is it? For R2, Flower and Tramp for myself. Maybe even Maximus. I have lost my mind because, I really want Daisy and Donald Duck. I could cry.

Such a great shopping trip! Too much fun stuff. I have a feeling that I would love to shop with you.
 
I can't use my arms much again, when I can @Leave a Whisper I will show you a photo. Its kind of a concept on paper dolls but a bit different as the clothes cling on the doll.

here is a youtuber than will kind of show you...

LOL you would probably get really tired of listening to me moan and grown from the pain of just moving through the store and the exhaustion I feel in the car on the way home. R2 is a saint.

I remember wanting one so badly.

@tulagirl you could sit in a cart of some sort and, trust me, with my pain levels, I don't mind complaining. I know how bad it can be.

Did I ever tell you, my toes grew longer and the space between my big toe and the others wider, because squatting or bending just hurts so much, that I always use my feet to pick up things? My big toe is now slightly opposable. :rolleyes:
 
I use my feet and legs a lot too for arms. I have no idea what will happen if I lost those too.
