I would like new toast tongs because my current ones have seen better days. I use them all the time, but unfortunately, I left them in last time I toasted something, so now they're singed.

C'mon, Y'all, Let's Keep Our Knitting Lady Knitting!!

Ladies and Gentlemen of the RHF Community, May I Please Present:~~ The KnittingLady~~. The Knitting Lady has become a beacon in the night, a symbol of comfort, for many. How has she done this, you may ask? She seems much like you and me - a low income, disabled person, who for the most part, stays at home. You may be thinking, "Well that doesn't sound very inspirational." But you are wrong! Our Knitting Lady takes yarn and fabric, and with loving tenderness, she fashions these raw materials into handmade treasures which are then presented to very deserving people such as Homeless Families, Victims of Domestic Violence, Premature Babies, Low Income Families, and also to patients in Hospitals and Nursing Homes.

All proceeds from this wish will go toward buying fabric and/or yarn to help KnittingLady create these treasured items.

~~Financial Donations Will Be Gratefully Accepted~~

ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT NON-FINANCIAL DONATIONS SUCH AS PATTERNS, SCISSORS, NEEDLES, THREAD, FABRIC, AND YARN, SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO KNITTING LADY, SINCE SHE KNOWS WHAT SHE HAS AND WHAT SHE NEEDS.

~~Please help Knitting Lady achieve her goal of helping others~~

Money for Living Expenses for Marie & Her Family

Money for Living Expenses for Marie & Her Family

Marie is a very sweet, loving person. If you've been here a while, you are probably familiar with her. She's a very good, caring, supportive RHF member, but she recently had to move back home to the Philippines, where her parents are tenant farmers who live in a small place without electricity or running water. Marie has children there, and she is looking for work. Life is very difficult for Marie and her family. She had been trying to help out her family by working overseas, but her Visa ran out, so she had to go back home in May. It takes her several hours to get to a place where she can use the internet, and she does not have a vehicle. I know many of us here on RHF are very needy, but this is a family who cannot afford running water or electricity, and is miles away from the nearest city. Marie is losing hope, and I'm running this wish for her to help restore her faith in humanity. I'm pasting the information from her profile here, and her RHF name is just Marie, if you'd like to check her out. Please vote and/or donate to help Marie and her family. Thanks!

Eldest among 6 daughters of a tenant-farmer & a mother of 3. I worked as a caregiver/domestic helper for 5 years, ending May 17. My wishes tells you more of how hard my life is. I am now in a place where election related cheating is always on the air. It's too hot here & everything is scarce. I do need your help.

$$ For Food, Utilities, & Living Expenses for Bandit's Angel

$$ For Food, Utilities, & Living Expenses for Bandit's Angel

Bandit's Angel (Dee) is disabled, on SSI, and is struggling to survive. She has a HUGE bill ($2,813) from when Bandit (her companion kitty) was in the hospital, and she can't pay it. In order to make payments on that bill, she is doing without food, toiletries, and other necessities. She stays inside all the time because she has to use her gas to get to her medical appointments. The stress of this bill is exacerbating all of Dee's medical conditions, which means she gets sicker and sicker every day she has to worry about this bill. Dee is despair about her situation, because she feels trapped with this bill hanging over her head, and her everyday existence is very depressing. Please, let's give Dee and Bandit some help here with 5 votes, supportive comments, and donations, if you are able. Thank you for helping my friend. IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE TO DONATE TO DEE & BANDIT VIA PAYPAL, HERE IS HER ADDRESS: Ms.SoCalAngel@gmail.com

An Electric Tea Kettle for a Friend!!

I want to get this kettle for a friend because she doesn't have one. Her stovetop doesn't work properly, meaning she can't use a stovetop kettle. I have one similar to this, and I love it, use it all the time, and would like to give my friend this same opportunity. I jacked up the price a little so I could also pickher up some nice tea.

Grandmother In Desperate Need of Assistance with Utilities!!
Video

Grandmother In Desperate Need of Assistance with Utilities!!

This wish is for KelsAngels. She has tried every resource she is aware of, both local and online, to obtain assistance with their Electric bill, to no avail. Her husband is out of work, and is actively seeking employment. This bill has been accruing, and they have received NO ASSISTANCE. Kelly and her hubby are raising their grandchildren, who were abandoned by their mother. Kelly mentioned she had heard that the electricity cannot be disconnected if a baby under 12 months lives in the house and welfare and food stamps are provided. If anyone can verify that, please PM her with the documentation.

Kelly and her hubby had been struggling themselves, due to his job loss, and then her daughter abandoned her children with them. One of the babies is 6 months old, and the other is 1+ yrs old. Amanda needs to see her cardiologist, because she was born with a hole in her heart, and although it was expected to heal on its own by now, it hasn't.

Kelly cleans houses for very low wages, in order to try to keep food in the house. She is beside herself with worry about the electricity being disconnected, because she needs to be able to heat up Amanda's formula.

In addition to the 2 grandchildren they are raising, Kelly has 3 of her own children living at home that have the same needs as other children: clothes, medical care, food, etc. Anyone who knows Kelly knows she is very sweet, supports others and is always going out of her way to assist in any way she can. Both Kelly and her hubby are very overwhelmed and depressed about this situation. They were struggling to survive already, when her daughter became involved with the wrong crowd and appears to care more about her friends and social life than about her own children. The daughter abandoned her babies with Kelly, with no regard for the fact that her mom is struggling to survive on a daily basis. I am familiar with symptoms of Depression and Anxiety, and I can assure you that Kelly exhibits the classical symptoms of both, and really needs a helping hand.

At this point, Kelly is scheduled to lose her electricity within days. If you do not see her around on RHF, that is why. Please help this large family out in any way you can.

An Electric Teakettle for Dee Dee

An Electric Teakettle for Dee Dee

Dee Dee has a LOT on her plate right now. She is on disability and is fighting cancer, supporting friends and family members, and maintaining a marriage. On top of that, her stove and oven don't work. I think life is difficult enough when things at home work smoothly. Obviously Dee Dee has other priorities, which is great, but I would like to be able to give her an electric kettle so she can relax with hot drinks when things get to be a bit much. I've taught stress management quite a bit, and one of the things I emphasize to clients is self-nurturing behaviors. Dee Dee seems to have many positive attributes that help keep her going, but as her friend, it's hard to stand by and not doing anything to make her life better. This wish is my little attempt to improve her quality of life in my own way. Before you cast your vote, please consider how much of a positive difference something so small as an electrical kettle could make in Dee Dee's quality of life. Thanks!

Granted -An Oster Black 6 slice Toaster Oven/Broiler/Baker!!

This wish was granted by jcjiii. I'm putting this in the nice category because it's pretty much a need. My current toaster oven broke down, and I don't have an oven where I'm staying, so this would greatly enhance the type of meals I could prepare. For those who don't know me, my situation is on my bio, but here's a short summary. I'm an injured worker fighting the system, with no income since last December. I was rear-ended by an 18-wheeler on my way to a client's home back in June 05, and am fighting to get the treatment I need and to have them reinstate my pay, as well as reinstating my pharmacy benefits. I was evicted from my home of 9 years due to lack of income, so I had to move, and am now in a place without an oven or tub. It's been a rough road, but I'm coping with the help of family and my wonderful friends, both in real life, and also the extra special ones I've met online. Thanks for checking out my wish, and good luck with yours!

Granted by Me! Silicone Ice Cube Trays!!!

Granted by Me! Silicone Ice Cube Trays!!!

My new place doesn't have an ice maker. I have a really hard time getting the ice cubes out of the standard ice trays I bought. For one, I don't have the strength in my hands and wrists to twist the trays, and for 2, the twisting motion hurts my hands and wrists. If you watch the video, that's about how difficult it is for me to make ice cubes! I'd like to replace the ice cube trays I have with silicone trays because they're much more flexible and will be easier for me to handle and get the cubes out of. I found some really pretty ones I would like to get, and I can get several of them for the $30.00, and use the extras for when I make desserts like Vietnamese jello! Thanks for reading my wish!

Yippee, I was able to grant my own wish, finally!

Something Warm & Fuzzy For Justacaregiver To Sleep With!

Update, this wish is being fulfilled by Hugs Monster! Thanks to her, Lela will have her snuggly sleeping partner! The Happy Cooker/Justacaregiver (Lela) has been sleeping with Walmart, her stuffed bear, for quite a while, and it appears she's worn him out :(. Since we (all of Lela's friends) are flat broke, I'm asking for your votes so I can get her a replacement snuggle partner. She's a great friend and never asks for anything, so I'd really like to do this for her. Thanks for your vote!

$$ To Help Out KelsAngels, Electric & Phone Disconnected

Kelly is the sweetest person, and she and her family have been going through some tough times. Her hubby was unemployed for quite a while, and just finally got a job, but they are really behind and can't get caught up. In addition to having their own teens at home, Kelly & Jimmy are raising 2 of their grandbabies due to some issues with their daughter. They live in New York, and the weather is getting colder. Let's get them some help to get their electric and phone reconnected. This video is shot in Kentucky and is about the struggle to survive on low wages. It reminded me of the struggle many of us face, and when you watch it, I hope you will think of Kelly and her family, the high cost of living in NY, and the fact that she and her grandbabies need electric, heat, and phone service. UPDATE: i FOUND KELLY'S QAMBIO LISTING: [ link ] If you have a Qambio account, please up her listing, and if you are a donor, please consider giving to this family in need. Here's a link to Kelly's Forum Thread, please check it out and keep it bumped so people will know about this wish. [ link ] Thanks!

Peace & Justice For The Family of Deanna Cremin

Peace & Justice For The Family of Deanna Cremin

In 1995, something horrible happened in my hometown. From Kathy Cremin's Blog on MySpace: I don't quite know how to start what I want to be said here. But I am going to try. Over 12 years ago, I had a happy little family. I had a good job. My children by all aspects were happy, well adjusted kids growing up where their parents grew up, in Somerville, Massachusetts. Although I had the regular concerns any parent of active teenagers does, murder was not remotely in my thoughts. My concerns lied in their personal and emotional health. Their education, and their drug awareness. Their social activities and personal friendships did not raise any red flags for what happened. March 30, 1995 is a day that I dread to remember. But I can relive it several times a day second for second. My beautiful daughter had been strangled to death and I did not know what to do. I had no idea how to handle this and live at the same time. There is no relief to this grief. I live with it. Her dad lives with it. My daughter and my two sons live with it. I think it is our love for one another that helps us to move on in our lives. When I look at my children and I appreciate so very much, how very proud I am of them. How very much I love each one of them. How I wish I could do away with all the evil in this world so it won't come near them ever again, it is a very scary and strange feeling. Because no matter what,I am always afraid something bad will happen. When things are at their best,that fear is always ever looming over. Yet, I can't let it defeat my, or anyone in my family's dreams, endeavors, and pursuits for success and happiness... I almost lost everything with meaning after Deanna was murdered. And I would have if I had continued to let grief control my life. I chose to let the love inside and surrounding me be my guide. I am so grateful to have what I have. But I will not just slide back and let Deanna's murderer not be pursued. I think we can all help this quest for justice. And I am truly grateful to everyone who has put any time into helping get "Justice for Deanna." Thanks for listening, Sincerely, Katherine Cremin [ link ] If you know anything about Deanna's murder, Please contact Kathy.

Granted by Me!! New Salt & Pepper Mills

I have problems with my hands due to nerve damange, and often drop things. This week, I dropped and broke both my salt and pepper shakers. I use sea salt, and like to have both a salt mill and pepper mill. I could really use a new set, and found one I like (see pic). These would really come in handy with the holidays coming up, since they're prettier than the big containers of salt and pepper. Hope you enjoy the video, and Happy Holidays!

Yippee, I was finally able to grand this myself!

Funds to Help Dee (Bandit'sAngel) & Kelly (KelsAngels)

I have 2 great friends who really need some assistance. I know the maximum win is $100, but I would appreciate any donations also, because these two women really need all the help they can get.

Dee (Bandit'sAngel) is struggling with daily pain which has been compounded by her recent fall, and she is all alone living in California, struggling to survive on SSI. She needs financial assistance as well as emotional support.

Kelly (KelsAngels) is struggling to maintain her electric service, which she needs not only for lights, but for cooking and heat. Her hubby was out of work for an extended period, so they are behind on ALL of their bills. They have already lost their electricity twice, and are struggling to keep it on, as well as pay their rent and phone bill. Kelly just now finally got her internet back. Kelly and her hubby have 4 teens, in addition they are raising 2 grandbabies, and their daughter's friend, who is verbally abused in her own home, so prefers to stay with Kelly. I would really appreciate it if you would consider helping out these 2 very special ladies.

If anyone would like to make a donation, here are their PayPal Addresses: Bandit'sAngel - Dee's PayPal is ms.socalangel@gmail.com, and KelsAngels - Kelly's PayPal Address is: kapjhs@iwon.com Prayers are always appreciated. Thanks, and Happy Holidays! Lisa

~*~*~*~Let Them Eat Crepes!!~*~*~*~

I have a confession to make...I'm a crepe fanatic! I love making (and eating) crepes :). I want a really good pan to make my crepes in, and a new crepe recipe book, as well as a crepe spreader. I don't need these things, I WANT them...badly!!

The pan I've been using to make my crepes in SUCKS! It has a "non-stick" coating, which is a strange term for it, since everything under the sun sticks to it. I found a very nice heavy-duty smooth pan that's designed specifically for making crepes, and I'm salivating over it. I want to get the pan, the recipe book and spreader, then I want to make some crepes I can be proud to serve!

Please give me your vote of 5 so I can get my crepe pan and supplies. Thank You!

S'il vous plait me donner votre vote de 5 si je peux acheter ma casserole et mes provisions de crepe. Vous remercier et le bon appetit !

This Wish Has Been Granted Net10 TopUpCard

I'm still struggling to get back on my feet after being off work for 2.5 yrs following a serious car accident. I'm back to work part-time and need a cell phone for my job. I have the cheapest plan I could find, which is Net-10, at 10c a minute. I am very conservative with my minutes, but just can't afford to buy a top-up card, which costs $60. I need this phone to communicate with the agency I contract with, as well as with my clients and their CPS caseworkers. This is a one-time need. My hours at work should be increasing soon. I recently got both Cervical and Lumbar Epidural Steroid Injections, and I am hoping they enable me to be a little more productive. I would appreciate any help with this matter, and I do help others when I'm able. Thanks, Lisa

Two Handmade Alpaca Wool Shawls for Justacaregiver & Her Mom

I have a dream...and what a dream it is!! I want a lil bit of luxury for a friend and her mom. I found these shawls, and would love to get them for Lela (justacaregiver) and her mom, so they could have something nice and warm and snuggly to help stave off the cold west Texas nights. I'm looking for men for them too, but for now these shawls would be nice, LOL. There's nothing like a nice handmade gift to make a girl feel loved, and these two gals could really use a nice treat.

The video is on making a shawl. Not the ones i'm talking about, but I thought some might be interested in it. Thanks for reading my wish.

Money for Computer "Stuff" for KelsAngels To Keep Her Online

I miss my friend Kelly (KelsAngels). She isn't around much anymore because she needs computer "stuff" so she can fix up the computers she has so she won't have to share the one working computer with her teenagers and husband. She's currently borrowing a laptop, but will eventually have to give that back, and I'd like for her to be able to fix up the other computers they have so they can all share their internet connection and not have to take turns and stress out about staying up until all hours of the night just to get a few minutes of online time. Kelly's really sweet and I think GoN could use some sweetness right about now! Thanks for reading my wish, and please consider giving Kelly your 5 stars so she can be back here with us :).

Let's click some stars for Windy, and help cheer her up! This bouquet also includes a 10% donation for Breast Cancer Prevention, and the price includes a vase. Thanks for reading my wish :).

People To Please Check Out Mspunky's Non-Profit Site

This is copied from a posting by Mspunky in the July Prayer Request Room: Father GOD you know that I am trying so hard to start this NON-Profit Organization to help parents and grandparents that lost a child, to help by giving them a headstone and taking some of the burden off of them....



I gave the organization a Name GOD and I will call it "Buried with Dignity" and it will be in honor of Donavon, Crystal, Kedan, and Shannon. These are 4 children of friends of mine that have lost their babies for one reason or another. I have set up a Chipin page GOD but I am getting NOWHERE.....fast.... I need you to help me GOD I need to do this to help all of these Moms and Dads and Grandparents Lord...IT IS NOT FOR ME that I want to make this dream of mine come true...it is to help these parents or grands at a very very low place and time in their life... just a little better by my organization helping.



Maybe if everyone wrote to Oprah, or Maury or Montel or Tyra and told them what I am trying to do to make this happen....maybe that will help..So I pray that people will contact them for me and this cause to help us bury these children with some dignity...and give these parents and grandparent a small ray of hope and peace... Thank you GOD for listening...amen



This is my Chipin page and you can also go to [ link ] and read what ME and My Hubby and some of our friends and strangers were able to do to START to help 6 children that died....and the remaining 2 of them are Finally buried with dignity after 1 1/2 long years of asking for help for them......

A Treat for Lisa Welch, I Want Her To be Spoiled

Lisa is a great person and friend. She's been through a lot, and is having some depression issues right now. She's got chronic pain and is struggling financially, because she can't work, due to her injuries. I know she can't afford luxuries right now, so I'm making this wish for her, and if it wins, the money will go directly to her. I want her to use the $$ to splurge and buy something she really WANTS, not something she NEEDS. Let's give Lisa a little fun, and let her spoil herself! Thanks for reading.

Those of you who are relatively new may not know Dee Dee, but if you check out her profile and previous posts, you'll get to know her a little and will see what a great person and friend she is.

Dee Dee has a LOT on her plate right now. She is on disability and is fighting cancer, supporting friends and family members, and maintaining a marriage. On top of that, her stove and oven don't work. I think life is difficult enough when things at home work smoothly. Obviously Dee Dee has other priorities, which is great, but I would like to be able to give her an electric kettle so she can relax with hot drinks when things get to be a bit much.

I've taught stress management quite a bit, and one of the things I emphasize to clients is self-nurturing behaviors. Dee Dee seems to have many positive attributes that help keep her going, but as her friend, it's hard to stand by and not doing anything to make her life better. This wish is my little attempt to improve her quality of life in my own way. Before you cast your vote, please consider how much of a positive difference something so small as an electrical kettle could make in Dee Dee's quality of life. Thanks!

A High Gain WiFi Booster/Extender Antenna for KelsAngels

A High Gain WiFi Booster/Extender Antenna for KelsAngels

Why is this wish greedy? Because it's for ME, more than Kelly (KelsAngels). She's a great friend and a great GoNer, but most of the new members don't even know her because she's been gone so long. I miss talking to my buddy. She lost her electric for many months, so couldn't be online, then she ended up moving in with friends. She's living in their basement, and has a hard time connecting to the internet. I sent her an antenna a while ago, but it's not strong enough to reach the connection, so she needs a high gain booster/extender antenna. If this wish is granted, she'll be around more, and y'all can get to know what a sweet person she is, so please consider giving this wish for Kelly your 5 stars. Thanks!

A PUR Filter & Some Tupperware (Hurricane Ike Related)

A PUR Filter & Some Tupperware (Hurricane Ike Related)

I stayed in my home during Hurricane Ike, but evacuated after, due to no utilities, and no groceries/gas in the region following the storm. People were acting really crazy after the storm, driving up on curbs, sidewalks, on medians, and cutting people off, driving right through the flashing red lights, etc. The majority of the traffic signals in my area are still not working, over 2.5 weeks after Ike hit. 11% still do not have utilities. Trash has not been collected in over 3 weeks, and debris has not been picked up either. My bedroom ceiling leaked all over the bedroom floor and ruined my rugs. I haven't even had the time or energy yet to move furniture to check for mold. Other than that and the problems with the fridge/freezer, I mostly had limbs/leaves all over the place, and the gate next to mine, as well as the fence between this place and the neighbor's house are down. I did lose some of my aquarium fish, but 2 were still alive, over 2 weeks after the hurricane hit, which is a miracle. The kitties and I are fine, other than Asthma/Sinus flareups due to having to use bleach to clean the fridge/freezer. Thankfully, Dee Dee (a member here) hooked me up with a friend of hers, so we had a safe place to stay while we were evacuated.

I was out of town for two weeks, while the utilities were off. When I returned this past weekend, after power had been restored, everything in my fridge/freezer was totally ruined. The power had been off for 16 days. The seals on the fridge/freezer are broken, and everything in there was filled with flies, maggots, and black mold, including my Brita Water Pitcher.

I would like to be able to replace the Brita Pitcher with a PUR water faucet filter, get a few extra screen filters for it, and buy some Tupperware containers to replace the ones I had to throw out. Because I was out of work for 2.5 weeks due to Ike, I currently have no income, and can't afford to replace them myself.

Here's a link to the Laura Recovery Center, it has some pictures and information on some of the approximately 400 people still missing/unaccounted for due to Hurricane Ike. Thanks for reading.

Brooke Ellison Story Book&DVD for Brooke GRANTED!

Brooke Ellison Story Book&DVD for Brooke GRANTED!

THIS WISH HAS BEEN GRANTED BY RANDYAPPLE, TYVM RANDY!

Back in April, Lois Collis' cousin Brooke, who is a teenager, was severely injured in a motor vehicle accident. In the beginning it was touch and go. Brooke broke her neck and back. She bruised her lungs, and broke her pelvis front and back, too. She had numerous injuries and was hospitalized for 2 weeks, then transferred to a rehab facility. She is now at home, but can't even see her mom, because her mom just went through surgery. At this time, Brooke is paralyzed from the waist down, but the family is hopeful that she will one day walk again.

Brooke has started to realize her limitations, and is very depressed. She is used to playing all different kinds of sports, and this is a devastating blow to what she once knew, and how she lived her life. I'd like to be able to get her both the book and DVD version of this story. We all know that books and movies made from them are often very different. I'm hopeful that she'll read the book, then watch the DVD when she needs a lift.

Here's a blurb about The Brooke Ellison Story: At age 11, Brooke Ellison was left paralyzed from the neck down after being hit by an automobile. Writing together in alternating chapters, Brooke and her mother, Jean, document the exhausting efforts and dedication that it took for Brooke to beat overwhelming physical odds and finally graduate, with honors, from Harvard University. The story begins on the day of the accident and ends triumphantly with Brooke's graduation speech from college. Brooke's upbeat account of her college experience reveals her charming and witty nature, and Jean's contribution is a testimony to the profound powers of a mother's love and unfailing dedication. Although many other biographies of quadriplegics are available, this one, written with keen intellect and an open heart, deserves attention. It is recommended for both public and school libraries seeking nonfiction that provides strong role models for adolescents. Academic libraries supporting a curriculum in the health sciences might also find this suitable. Deborah Anne Broocker, Georgia Perimeter Coll., Dunwoody

Craft Supplies For Making Christmas Ornaments&Homemade Cards

Craft Supplies For Making Christmas Ornaments&Homemade Cards

Last year, for the first time ever, I hand made Christmas cards for family and close friends. I really enjoyed working on them, and everyone seemed to enjoy having something homemade, rather than store bought.

After I got back from being evacuated due to Hurricane Ike, I realized that a lot of my Christmas ornaments/decorations/craft items had been ruined due to water & mold. I would like to be able to purchase some supplies to try to fix the ones I can, and re-make those that weren't salvageable.

$50 won't cover everything I need, but it would really help me get started, and hopefully soon, my pay will catch back up (lost income due to Ike). Once things normalize with regard to my pay, I should be able to buy the rest of the materials I'll need to complete these projects. Thanks for reading my wish :).

Mirror, Mirror, on the ground, shattered pieces all around.

Mirror, Mirror, on the ground, shattered pieces all around.

Help me please, improve my luck. Without my mirror, I'm a sitting duck :O.

The area where I live is under construction. The other day, I was driving down one of the roads, which is currently one lane in each direction, with construction barrels and a drop off of about a foot on my side. The oncoming car swerved into my lane, and to avoid it, I swerved in the opposite direction, heard a crack as my side mirror hit a construction barrel, and my mirror went flying off the car. Thankfully, that was all the damage done. It could have been a lot worse, because if I'd dropped off that foot on the side of the road no doubt the car itself would have been damaged, but I can't afford to replace the mirror. I was able to go back after traffic died down, and found the mirror housing with wire still attached. The mirror part is broken, but the housing seems to be intact, which seems to me to be a good thing, but since I know next to nothing about cars, I think it's time to call in the professionals!

A Pair Of Soft, Fuzzy Slippers & Bubble Bath for Heidi

A Pair Of Soft, Fuzzy Slippers & Bubble Bath for Heidi

Heidi (sweetblonde65) could use some pampering. I tried to buy her a pair of slippers, but she knows I'm struggling, so wouldn't accept them. So, I figured the next best thing would be to make her a wish. I figured while I'm at it, she could probably use some nice bubble bath, too, so she can relax. I know she's a hard worker, and does without a lot of the little luxuries that we women like, so if this wins, she can treat herself to some new slippers and bubble bath, or other whatever other bath/body type product she wants. PS, Slippers are on sale at [ link ]

Fast Food Giftcards for Supermom & Her Kiddos!

Fast Food Giftcards for Supermom & Her Kiddos!

Steph (Supermom) is a good friend, and she's been through a lot lately. She's injured herself, been out of work and school, her car still isn't running, and her home was recently burglarized. Thankfully, no one was hurt. I made this wish on WUAH, but they deleted it, because they have a new policy that no one can make wishes for other members or former members :(. So, here I am, appealing to the wonderful members of GoN to help me get this family a little fun and enjoyment.

Steph has 4 children, and they, like most children, love fast food. If we could get them some fast food giftcards, that would give Steph a break from having to cook. Money's tight, so they've been doing without any extras, and could really use a treat. Here are some of the fast food restaurants near them: krystal, mcdonalds, burger king, chick fil a, subway, arby's, hardees, taco bell and kfc. Thanks for reading this wish, and please consider giving Steph and her kids your stars!

A Fun, Stress Free Night Out Together For The Ferst Family

A Fun, Stress Free Night Out Together For The Ferst Family

Sherri, Tom, and the kids (Tessa & Joe) have lots of challenges, and they could really use a nice evening out to the movies, es, dinner, or whatever else they choose to do. They could even go back to Chuck E. Cheese's if they want, since Joe had such a blast when they went there for his birthday. Where they go and what they do is sort of unimportant. What IS important is that they are able to go out and treat themselves, without worrying about bills and other expenses.

FYI, I changed the category of this wish from Greedy to Needy, because Sherri is having a lot of heart problems, which I believe are stress related. Therefore, in my opinion, this wish would help her by relieving some stress, which makes it more needy than greedy. If this wish wins, the $100 will go to Sherri's PayPal, and then they can figure out what to do with the $$.

Thanks for reading this wish, and please consider giving Steph and her kids your stars!

$$$ To Help Sherri Ferst Pay Her Medical Bills!

$$$ To Help Sherri Ferst Pay Her Medical Bills!

Sherri and Tom have lot of physical challenges and the medical bills to prove it.

Sherri recently underwent a battery of tests to figure out what is wrong with her. She has no insurance, so those bills will be sky high, and $$ is scarce in the Ferst household. She does a lot for this community, running contests, auctions, helping out the Avon fairy, etc., and I'd like to win this wish to help her out with her medical bills. Can you please give back to her in the form of 5 *****s on this wish? Thanks! Lisa

Flannel PJs, A Robe &  Indoor/Outdoor Slippers For Heidi

Flannel PJs, A Robe & Indoor/Outdoor Slippers For Heidi

Ok, so it isn't usually that cold in Mississippi, BUT Heidi (sweetblonde65) has been there so long, her thick Minnesota blood has thinned out, and she's freezing!

I want for her to be able to pick out a nice soft, thick robe, some snuggly flannel PJs, and a pair of warm indoor/outdoor slippers, so she can be both warm and comfortable. She's a very sweet lady, and can't afford to buy these herself, so I'd like for us as a community, to grant this wish to keep Heidi warm. Thanks for reading, and please consider giving Heidi your 5*****s on this wish so she can be warm!

A PrettyNew Bedding Set for Schnarfle's 7-Year-old Daughter!

Schnarfle's been running this wish for her daughter for the past 7 weeks. Her daughter has a comforter that still has a little life in it, but Schnarfle would love to be able to get her this pretty new set to brighten up her daughter's room.

As with everyone, money's pretty tight in the Schnarfle household. This would be a great Christmas gift to her daughter, to reward her for doing so well in school. It would also motivate her daughter to clean her room so the rest of the room would be as pretty as her new bed.

Can we please get this modest wish granted? Here's a link to the set that she wants to get: [ link ] Thanks for reading this wish, and please consider giving Schnarfle and her daughter your stars!

PS, I increased the amount back up to $40 in case the sale ends before she can get this.

$$$$ Financial Assistance For LuAnn (Boxercharm) $$$$

$$$$ Financial Assistance For LuAnn (Boxercharm) $$$$

LuAnn hasn't been around in a few months, because they have lost their internet. The internet is the least of their problems, though, and they could really use a hand up. I don't know her PayPal address, nor would that do any good, because she is not able to be online at all. She is recovering from an injury, and is currently undergoing phsycial therapy to help her be able to walk without her crutches/cane.

Despite her troubles, she maintains a positive attitude, and keeps in touch with MorningGlory, me, and I believe, Gerrisister. I'm not a very good letter writter unfortunately, because I have a lot of trouble hand writing things with my hand issues. So, I haven't been as good at keeping in touch as she has been. I always enjoy her cards/letters, because they are chatty and upbeat. MorningGlory had planned to make this wish a while back, but she's been busy getting ready for her upcoming move, so I decided to make it. I'd love to be able to stick a money order for $100 in my next card/letter to her. I know $100 would make a huge difference in their financial situation. Thanks for reading, and please consider giving LuAnn your stars.

Avon Terry Wrap & Slippers For Kay (Luvmygrands) GRANTED!!!!

Thanks to everyone who has voted, bumped, promoted, supported this wish - an anonymous donor has GRANTED this wish!! PLEASE consider voting for Amber's wish, I think this project would really help the family in dealing with their grief from the loss of Amber's MIL. [ link ]

Kay's a great friend, and I'd like to pamper her a little. I got this terry wrap from my mom for Christmas, and I love it - it's the softest thing I've ever felt, so I'd like to be able to get one for Kay, and also get her some matching slippers.

Not only is she a great friend, but she's also a wife, mother, and grandmother raising one of her grandchildren. She gives everything she's got to her family and friends, and I'd like to be able to give a little back to her, in the form of this pretty pink wrap/slippers set, so she can relax a little, be comfy, and feel spoiled.

If this wish wins, it will also benefit our resident Avon Lady, Sherri Ferst :). Thanks for reading, and please consider giving Kay your stars!
