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!

Robin G participated in the Independence Day Swap. While she was not my partner, she did send me a nice envelope. She included a thank-you note for hosting the swap and an assortment of patriotic-themed notecards. Thank you for your kindness.

Thank you to Debbie (Darlin-D) for the cross stitch  kits. They're adorable!  And yes, my eyes need some extra help these days for these kinds of things. I keep a stronger pair of reading glasses handy  :)

Many thanks to Schuylar for the sheet of 2 cent stamps. I will put them to good use sending RAOK mail to friends now that the rates have gone up again.
