A fridge for my uncle.
My uncle who is one of the sweetest people you will ever meet has helped out lots of people over the years. He is now in his 80's and could use a new fridge- his won't keep milk cold. I would buy it for him myself but I can't. I am a single grandmother raising my 2 grandchildren and I can barely take care of us. |

Money to redo my Uncles bathroom and put in a gas heater!!!!
Ok guys, this may seem like a silly wish but it is not there is no running water in the tub or the sink and by the time you carry water from the kitchen in a 5 gallon bucket the water is cold. This house is like 65 years old and my grampa and his sons built it from whatever boards they could find, the wind just whips through the walls and windows. My Uncle will be 82 Feb 14th and this is his home please help me make it a better place for him to live. |

The Money To redo my Uncles bathroom
Because He so needs for it to be done he is 82 years old and is a real sweet heart and he has been living like this for over two years. No running water in the tub or sink. He takes a shower with a water hose. |

The chance to start over
My grandchildren and I moved in with my uncle because we had nowhere else to go but I have been unable to find a job here there just are none and the living conditions are just deplorable. I desperately need to get to somewhere that I can find a job, there is a nursing home in Franklinton LA that starts a new CNA class every two weeks, if I can find us a place to live I have a chance to be self supporting and get my life back. Please please vote for this wish and help get us to a place where I have a chance to start my life over. |

The chance to start over this is 2nd time to make this wish
I am desperate, we are living with my uncle and he is a sweetheart but I have to get us to a place where I can find a job so that the children will have a safe clean place to live. I have found a 2 bedroom mobile home for 250.00 a month I will need first and last months rent and deposits they are replacing the floors and flooring and fixing it up to rent so it will be awhile before it is ready. Please vote for this wish it is 30 minutes from the nursing home where the cna course is located it is perfect if I can just get the money to rent it. I will have the opportunity to be able to get a job and go to school to get a better job. This will make our lives so much better, I wont have to constantly say no when the children ask for the littlest things and I will be able to buy school clothes and supplies. This will give me the chance to feel like I am somebody not a nobody. I just need a little help to get my life back. |

The chance to start over 3rd try
I have decided that maybe my wish is too selfish to be a nice wish so I am changing it to naughty. I want the chance to start over to move to where I can get a job there are none where I am now. We live in a small community maybe 30 people live here. I have had a bad couple of years and have gotten us stuck in the middle of no where. I have found the perfect place but dont have the money to rent it. I also have found a job where I can take a cna course while I am working, but in order to get this job I have to move. I am raising 2 of my grandchildren and they deserve better than this. Please consider voting for this wish |

The chance to start over
Ok as I am sure everybody knows by now I am a grandmother raising my grandchildren I have been through quite alot in the last 2 1/2 years. I am not going to go into all of the details I am just going to say that if I get this wish it will change all of our lives for the better I want to move us to a place where I can get a job with training so that I can eventually get a better job I have been a wife, mother and caregiver for most of my life. Now I am just a struggling grandmother trying to make life better for my grands and myself. Please help us to get a chance at a better life. I have found a place to move and a job once I get there I just need to get us there. |

The Chance To Start Over
Ok I know you are probably getting tired of seeing my wish, but I am not giving up. I truly am desperate and I need this wish, so that I have a chance to get my life back on track. I am a grandmother raising my grands who has been through a lot in the last two years. We ended up having to come and stay with my Uncle in North Mississippi because we had no where else to go. The Delta is poverty ridden there are no jobs. The little community I live in has maybe 40 people living here, we have no stores here, but we do have a local drug dealer, I guess that's the one thing you can always count on. I need to get my grandchildren out of here to a place where I can get a job. I have been searching since Jan 20th and I have found nothing. It doesn't help that the closest town where I could find a job is 45 minutes away. My Uncle is a sweetheart and I am very grateful to him for opening his home to us, but there is just no way to make a living here no opportunities to go to school so that I can get a decent job, Anyway I am wishing for the money to relocate us closer to home and get close to the nursing home in Franklinton La they have a CNA course they offer to employee's so if I can just get us moved I will be able to support us. Once I get my CNA I will be able to get an even better job. |

Money for gas to visit my Grandchildren
I would like to go home and visit my grandchildren, I have not been able to visit since I cant find a job and I am stuck here in North Mississippi. 2 of my grandchildren live with me 12 of them are in Louisiana. I will be changing the picture daily so you can see all of them. I really really miss them. |

A pair of Dr Scholls Tennis Shoes with gel insoles
Because they are so comfortable and I just can not afford to buy a pair right now. They really make you feel like you are walking on air. |
|
Some Gellin Shoes For My Hurting Feet!
I so want the Dr Scholls gel sole shoes cause they feel so gooood. I have bone spurs in my left foot and they really help and the pair I had are in pieces now and I cant afford to buy another pair. |
|
Gas money to visit my Grandchildren!!!
Because, I miss them very very much. I made this wish a couple of weeks ago and had $40.00 Donated but with the cost of gas now it is just not enough to get me there and back. I am stuck here and can't get home, but I would so like to go and visit. |

A Head Stone for Keith
Keith was a very loving and caring young man and has 3 Big sisters who are my daughter's, that love him very much and so very much want this for him. My daughter has been asked why did your family not save for this.

Please just vote with your heart as I am wishing with my heart. |

3 New tires for my car
I am a single grandmother raising my grandchilren and it is a struggle to keep a roof over our heads and food on the table. There is no money for extras like car tires. I was forced to buy one because we had a blowout and we have to have 3 more because they are in very bad shape. They would not be so much but when my car died my youngest Daughter gave me her 96 Ford Probe when she got a new one. |

3 New tires for my car!
I had to buy one tire because I had a blowout and the other 3 are in very bad shape. I am a single grandmother raising 2 of my grandchilren and it is hard enough to keep a roof over our heads and food on the table so there are no extras for tires although they are very much needed. |

$50.00 to spend on Me Me Me
Because I always have to use every penny I can scrape together for the things we have to have like elec, food, water, rent. I would like 50.00 to spend any way I want maybe a haircut and a manicure would be really nice. |
|
50.00 to spend on pizza and a movie
Because every single penny goes to bills, rent, necessities. I would like to take my grands out for pizza and a movie it would make them so happy. It is hard to raise your grands and I am so tired of having to say no we can't afford that. I would love to be able to say load up let's go have fun. |
|
Pizza and a Movie
There never seems to be anything left for just fun after all the bills are paid. I would love to take my 2 grands out for pizza and a movie. They have been very good and really do deserve this treat. |

Quilting Supplies
I am putting this in naughty because it is a want and not a need, I really really want a rotary cutter and mat so that quilting will be faster and easier. I am stuck in the house waiting on surgery and it would give me something to do. |

Peace on Earth
I just think peace would be nice. |
