Please use this thread to post thanks for the RAOK gifts, wishes granted, and anything else you are thankful for here on PBS.  Let's try to keep the ***RAOK*** and ***I Wish*** threads easier to check for wishes to grant and goodies to request.

Note: please be sure to thank people who grant your RAOK wishes. It's not necessary to do it here in the thread if you prefer to PM to let the sender know you received your gifts. Unfortunately, things do get lost in the mail. In addition, senders have mentioned that they have not heard from the people they have sent things to, and wonder if the items have been received. We hesitate to keep sending to someone who does not acknowledge gifts. If someone declines your request, that may be the reason.  Senders contact me in frustration, saying that they do not know if items are received and that it is usually the same people who do not correspond. Most have decided not to send to those requestors again. It is sad, but necessary to them. So please respond in some way.

If you have questions, please feel free to PM me and ask.  And thanks for using this thread to say Thank You to our wonderful wish granters.

Thank you to each person who helped me fight through the cancer and treatments in 2018. Every message, card, thought and prayer were so appreciated.  I am thankful for each of you!

Thank you to each of you who continue to run these forums through 2019.

Thank you for your continued friendship in 2019.

Hey everyone,
Thanks for the affirmations, but please do remember that it is all of YOU who make this forum the joyous place it is.  Jeanne and I would probably have little else to do but complain to each other about the weather if you all weren't here participating  :)

This is how WE feel about YOU!

Thank you to Towana (ladypink), and Kim (seacat66) for the birthday cards! I haven't been around much (or at all, really) on the forums lately because I went back to school starting in August, but you both remembered me. :) Sorry about the late acknowledgement -- I moved to Indiana, so the forwarding took time, and then the offices were closed over the holidays, but they've arrived at last! Thank you!
