REMINDER:  The RAOK forum is open to the public, not just to PBS members.  To protect your privacy, the 3 monthly recurring threads are intended to be limited to just what their titles say - Wishes, RAOK offers, and Thanks for wishes granted.  In other words, the posts in these 3 threads should be originating messages only.  Responses to, or chat about, those posts should be by private PMs.  Chatting is welcome in the Share and Care forum, which is limited to PBS members, and where card showers and prayer chains are available for anyone who asks for support.  To protect your privacy, please do not post your addresses in these threads - we prefer that you ask people to PM for your address.  Thanks!
_________________________________________________________________________________________

Welcome to the Wishes thread, where we post our wishes - maybe things we collect, something we can no longer find in our area, things we have always wanted, etc, etc. No wish is too unusual (though common sense is appreciated!); you never know what will turn up.

We must all abide by these PBS rules :
You may not wish for money or money-like items such as gift cards, postage, or for monetary donations for any charities.  You may ask for things you collect for charities, such as cancelled stamps, pop can tabs, etc., but you may not solicit funding. This includes donations for GoFundMe and other fund-raising events.
No buying or selling or advertising. No spam posts.
No wishing for credits Credits are bought, sold and loaned only in the Book Bazaar forum, or you may use the PBS Kiosk to purchase them.
Do NOT ask for bookssince books are swapped on the site and book deals are made in the Book Bazaar. Sorry, but you may not ask for free books of any kind. (Unpostable books are given away in the damaged book thread of the Bazaar and sometimes in the RAOK thread.  There is also a Damaged/Unpostable Virtual Box in the Games forum.  New participants are welcome!)

Our own RAOK rules: 
Please do not offer payment for the things you are sent, including postage. RAOKs are given freely, asking nothing in return except a thank you. You could pay it forward by granting a wish yourself.
Please limit your wishes to no more than 10. Lists could get very long. You can always edit as you go along.***************
Unlike many other forums, we ask that you do NOT reply within the threads. We do everything by PMs between members. This keeps the threads clutter-free and easy to use. When you come to this ***Wishes*** thread, you see wishes. In the ***RAOK*** thread, it's all about things we are giving away - simple and easy. And to protect your privacy, please do not post your address in the thread - it's all done via PM.
Please check in and answer your PMs. It's frustrating when people want to grant your wishes and don't hear from you!
PLEASE say THANK YOU to the person who grants your wish.  You may use our monthly ***Thank You*** thread, or you may acknowledge what you have received via a personal PM to the member(s) who granted your wishes. This is very important if you wish to continue to receive things from others.

Tips:
Check the RAOK thread before you post wishes -- the thing you want may already be there for the asking!  If you see a wish you can grant, just PM the poster for their address.
And please remember, if one of the moderators contacts you about a posting, then we are only trying to keep the forum running smoothly and according to PBS rules. If you are asked to change, move, or delete your post, please do so. Most of you know that the PBS team does get involved to edit posts, and accounts do get suspended, if rules are broken. We hate to see that happen to our fellow RAOKers!

If you have questions, feel free to contact me.  I wish that your wish(es) will be granted!

Happy March all. Hope it's a good one.

My wishes this month are:

Non glittery stickers with a clear background. Not the childish ones or school type ones. Prefer butterflies, flowers, Spring or Summer themed ones.

Grape or lemon-lime powdered drink mix packets you add to bottled water. No lemonaid ones please, and no green tea ones. Tea flavored ones are fine as long as it's not green tea.

Long shot: I'd love to get a sterling silver cross charm for my sterling silver chain. It needs to be true sterling silver so it won't turn if if it gets wet, as I wouldn't be taking it off when I shower. I've been wanting one for a long while but just can't seem to go buy one. Would prefer one at least 2" long. If anyone could help me out, I'd sure appreciate it.

Hope everyone's wishes come true this month.

Happy March and month of Spring along with Easter to all! Wishing each of you health and joy always. 

Prayers always for our country and world to come together in faith, compassion, and kindness. Related to help put a kind permanent end to Covid and to work toward all of God's life having a safe, faith filled, loving shelter that is warm and has necessities. 

Dad and I health prayers are always appreciated. 

Sticker wishes: Summer or stickers that say thank you on them. I don't need any others. 

Longshot: Mickey and friends (classic characters and or Pooh and friends) paper plates. A Mickey or Minnie cookie cutter or toast stamp. Due to the ongoing pandemic, I would need these two items to be brand new and in their original sealed packaging. 

Please PM me if you shop at Ralphs or Kroger. I am not a coffee or tea drinker. I do so enjoy a very small mug of Kroger Brand Hot Chocolate making it with milk not water. The only one I want will say Kroger Brand Hot Chocolate Dutch Milk Chocolate on the box. It comes in a blue box with 8 envelopes. I do not want fat free or with mini marshmallows. Just regular. Link to picture:  Kroger® Dutch Milk Chocolate Hot Cocoa Mix, 8 ct - Ralphs

Do any of you get (or have an old) Reader's Digests or Salesian Missions boklets? I would enjoy reading a couple of each especially of Reader's Digest to see whether I want to subscribe. I DO have a current Guideposts subscription. Thank you so much to those of you who have sent me over the years older issues. Should anyone still have some older Guideposts please me, thank you! 

I do respectfully ask that anything sent to me come from a no smoking home. 

God Bless You. Thank you so much!

I second Mona's wish for an end to Covid.  I also sent a message to my neurologist to see where I'm at on the surgery waiting list. Hopefully they will respond to my questions this time.

Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers as I'm having to have more tests run including an ultrasound of my stomach to check liver issues, and a breast biopsy. And on top of it all I have a kidney infection and will start antibiotics tomorrow for that.  The tests and biopsy will be done the 19th. Seems it all wants to hit at once. Murphy's Law.

I am going to have to start from scratch.  If anyone has any seeds, especially Ranunculys or Lisianthus, Hollyhocks or Peonies, I would love some.

Thanks for looking.
