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 so much for the floss. I just got home from having a root canal and found your package in the mail. What a wonderful surprise and it made my day. I feel like I won the lottery.

To all who have contacted me and or Helen,   I am leaving tomorrow to visit her and JoAnne.  Some of you had sent cards to her, too.  I will be gone until next Friday and in no contact with a computer.    Good new,  my hand is out of that horrible brace except for sleep time and my hand is healing well so thanks for all the prayers and good wishes.

Thanks to Vicky for the postcards. That bridge looks so scary. I wouldn't be able to walk across it. I love the train too and added both to my Happy Mail board. It has a lot of postcards on it.
