According to my inventory spreadsheet, my collection has hit the 4-digit mark. Of course, there are some empty lines on the spreadsheet that I need to deal with, and a few horses that aren't in there. (Ooops. Just realized today that my pair of Wedgewood Lady Phases from the first Treasure Hunt aren't included. So, no way to know if I have two long-tailed LPs or a long and a short.)
I have somewhere over 1,000 horse-shaped objects - mostly Breyers, some Stones, a couple Hartlands, one or two resins, and a good number of oddball chinas, Schleich and Safari horses, and random vaguely-horse-shaped things.

New horse on the way
I took advantage of a deal yesterday and bought a Trad-sized Delilah from Breyer's Saddle Club horses on Ebay. I was watching one from a dealer I've bought from before, who was offering free shipping, plus the promo set of Saddle Club Mini Whinnies. Ebay sent me a 10% off coupon code, and Ebates is offering a 3% rebate on Ebay purchases now. So, Delilah will cost me about $34 in the end.
(Ebates is a neat site. You get a percentage back at various online stores when you shop through their site - Sears, Barnes & Noble, dozens of others. When you've got at least $5 in rebates, they send you your money, either as a check or deposited to your Paypal account. If anyone reading wants to sign up with them, if you list me as referring you, we'll both get an extra $5 bonus. )

Color Crazy stallion
I finally got my Color Crazy herd stallion this month. Mine is a very very dark bay, with socks and a blaze. Oh, and a pair of rubs on his front leg and hip.
Pictures to come.

Lousy timing
I've managed to miss auctions for two QVC Black Beautys on Ebay this weekend. And of course, both of them went for a price that I would have bid up, if I'd been online.
The first one, I missed because I didn't get online at all Sunday, and forgot about the auction. The one today, I was watching, and then my little boy woke up at just the wrong time. He's sick today, and I got busy giving him some medicine, so I forgot all about the auction ending.
I think it's time to look into a bidding service.
