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 would prefer to PM privately 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 Towana for the postcard.  I wish I was traveling with you.  We loved South Dakota this summer.

Thank you, Claire, for sending Rowan something Halloween-y! She loves to decorate our house inside and out. I haven't given her your package yet, but I'm sure she'll be sending you a thank you, too.

Two packages were dropped off in my mailbox last night, but we just found them this afternoon.

Thanks to Vicky for the big crosswood puzzle book - I love my crosswords and can never get enough of them.

Thanks to Claire for the fall /harvest mini-muffin papers.  It make take me some time to use up 300 (!) of them, but I'm looking forward to the challenge.

I was out of town for my birthday and came home last night to birthday wishes from Melanie, Towana, Mona and our postcard fairy. 

Thank you for your good wishes ladies!  Thank you also Towana for the goodies you sent. They make me smile. 

Thank you to Chris (Lambie) for a postcard of her favorite vacation spot. Five miles of beach, 3 miles of boardwalk and a #1 used bookstore sounds wonderful. I will be looking for that area next time we visit New Jersey.

Wonderful mail day!  Thanks to:

Vicky M for the puzzle books and two surprise magazines.  I'm thrilled to get all these!  

Nancy surprised me with another envelope and more budget sheets.  I am getting into the daily act of using these.  They are incredibly helpful!  So kind of you, Nancy!  

Thank you both for making my day!  :)

Thank you Mona for the bday card.  It arrived 10 days after you mailed it but I still enjoyed it and appreciate your cheerful bday wishes.  Very thoughtful.

Thanks to Connie for the sticker envelope and to Vicky for the movie work search book.
