Please use this thread to post thanks for the RAOK gifts, wishes granted, and anything else you are thankful for here on PBS. Hopefully, we can keep the RAOK and I Wish threads easier to check for wishes to grant and goodies to grab.

Note: And please be sure to thank members who grant your RAOK wishes. It's not necessary to do it here, but do PM to let them know you received your gifts. Too many things have been lost in the mail. Lately, members have mentioned that they have not heard from the members that they have sent things to and wonder if they have been rec'd. We hesitate to keep sending to someone who does not acknowledge, as we do not know if other items were rec'd. If someone declines your request, that may be the reason.

Members contact me in frustration, saying that they do not know if items are rec'd and that it is usually the same members who do not correspond. Most have decided not to send to those members, again. It is sad, but necessary to them. Please respond in some way.

If you have questions, please feel free to PM me and ask.

I had a busy month here explaining rules and asking people to change their posts.. Thanks to everyone who was so kind and understanding about that.  It's nice when we can take care of things ourselves and not get the PBS team involved.  We appreciate that very much.  It helps keep our RAOK running smoothly.

Also it seems our pleas for acknowledging RAOKs received have done some good. In June we actually had more thank yous posted than the RAOK and I Wish posts combined!   Way to go all.   Also much appreciated.   One of the most important parts of this forum is letting people know what they send has arrived.  I'm sure  there are a few who still need to work on that, but over all, it's getting better.  Thank You!

Thanks to the more than 20 people here who participated in June's card shower for Diane M who has a new diagnosis of cancer.
