A little TLC for my wife after surgery EDITED
EDITED wish amount to reflect $5 donation in the chipin. Thank you! |
Half an Hour of Sunshine EDITTED
News has come in that my contract has been extended, and our day together will not be possible. What was to be 2 separations is now one giant one, lasting at least 4 long months. I cannot be there to spend my day with the woman I love, but I would still like to give her that day. Ellen will still be coming to North Bay, only now I shall not be there to greet her. What I now ask, is that you give me the chance to set things up for her while to have the day I wanted to give her. |
Travel Expenses for my summer visitation (3rd try)
Is this a need or a want? Personally, I feel that being with my children is a definite need. They are my oxygen of life. Without them, my life is just not complete. They are ages 5, 7, and 10. |
THANK YOU
This was a winning wish but I just wanted to say thank you but I had to edit wish due to someone spying on me |
A Hammock Swing For Sensory Integration Therapy
My son Jamie has Autism and like many autistic persons he has Sensory Integration Disorder meaning that it is difficult for him to process stimuli from the senses of sight, smell, sound, touch, taste, balance and body. It can be very overwhelming and causes many autistics to withdraw to avoid overstimulation, or try to sort out the input from their senses with self-developed soothing mechanisms and repetitive behaviours that can interfere with day to day activities and learning. |
Funds to Cover Son's Transplant Expenses
My son Jordan has a rare life threatening illness called Severe Chronic Congenital Neutropenia, Kostman's Syndrome,and will begetting a bone marrow transplant soon after his 16th birthday in April. Before the transplant, he will have many appointments for cardiactric testing,pulmonary tests, dental and vision etc...along with all his regular PCP visits. |
a graphic design, Wacom Tablet!
I have always wanted a Wacom Tablet. Some of you may ask, hmmm, well what is that? It's a graphic tablet for upcoming designers. It allows you to draw your creations and scan directly into your PC. I love designing graphics, and I have wanted one of these so badly for what seems like, forever. I'm trying to so hard to sell my designs, but I don't have all the tools I need to do some of the things that are IN where designing is concerned. |
Legos! Lots and Lots of Legos!
I have always wanted to build myself a table out of Legos and now that I finally have someplace to put one (I need something to put the TV on in the toy room), I need LOTS OF LEGOS! They are SO expensive, but I think that $100 worth would at least be a good start! Btw, if anyone has some old ones they aren't using anymore, I could certainly use some contributions! |
Help With Our Electric Bill

help with funeral travel expenses
My uncle passed away and the funeral will be Feb 21 about 120 plus miles away. My dad is coming here by way of bus and we are driving there together and will have to stay the night as it will be an all day event. My uncle is my dad's only brother and his oldest sibling and he is taking the death very hard. All of my family will be there also so it will be a very sad family reunion. There is no way I can miss this so I will go no matter what. With the bus fare, gas, food, some place to stay and anything else that requires money this is going to be costly. If me, my dad, my hubby and 3 kids have to sleep in the van it will not stop us. I dont think that will happen but if we have to we will. I know this wish will end after the funeral so if it wins it will help as a way to replace money spent from other things like my bills that I am going to not pay so I can use the money for us to go. This funeral is more important than my bills right now since they are mostly up to date and I will catch up later. I might do other things to come up with funds also it all depends on time. I am hoping we can find a place that is cheap and will let all 6 of us stay in one room to save money too. So far all I have found is a best western in Rohnert Park 20 miles from the funeral at a cost of $80 a night and they wont let us all stay in one room because the town has a ban on rollaway beds. If anyone can find something cheaper near Bodega Bay, Ca I'd apreciate it. Too bad its winter or we could just camp out in bodega dunes or dillons beach. Anyways, Thank you for reading and voting. The pic is my dad by the way. |
Ms Spunky to have a Sexy Teddy
MsSpunky hasn't had a new sexy teddy in 20 yrs. She needs something that fits her mature shape and will knock her husband's socks off. I don't know how much sexy teddy's cost, but I'm sure she can find something sexy in the $50 range that she likes. |
Help with Groceries 3rd Try
I am trying again. I work for the local school board transporting students to and from school. I do not receive another paycheck till Jan 31st. I have already paid rent and utilities on my house. That has left me with $75 for gasoline to get to and from work as well as groceries. I do receive some help from some local churches that participate in food banks. The food I receive from the food banks helps and has provided me with plenty of canned veggies, spagitti sauce and some noodles. So I will not go hungry. What they do not provide is meats and milk. That is what I am requesting help with is to purchase some meat and milk. I plan to use part of the money if I should win to make my purchase at a local Angel Food Ministries site. |

LOLing @ him hiding from the camera!
Yes hot and steamy bubble bath time.
Yes it is definitely a must have. I was afraid though that some people wouldn't understand if I put it under "needy" :p
You're welcome to Angel. I'm not saying I'd turn my back on a naked Angel ~ he's just a little too melancholy for my tastes. lol I'm sure he wouldn't say no to bubbles. I think EVERY vampire secretly likes bubbles ;) (more)
