Some of you know Dreamer is a dork. (so am I) I may be wrong but I don't think she has ever made a wish here. My wish is for her to get some $$$ to buy some crafts. I know she is a dedicated mom and always puts herself last. It would be fun for her to be able to buy something just for herself. If she has ever uplifted your spirits, made you laugh or even taken your mind off your troubles for just a minute, please vote for her to win.

Money For BiPolar Meds...

Money For BiPolar Meds...

My husband has Bi polar disorder and recently made the decision to go back on his Meds. However after 4 medications they still haven't been able to get the right one and he has to go back once again to try something else. Even though we have insurance all the Doctor and Presription co pays are killing us. Money is tight and my h is starting to say forget it because he can't afford to keep seeing the Doc and paying for medication changes. It took me over two years to get him to see he really needed to be back on medication and I don't want him to get discouraged and find excuses such as money to not go back to the Doctor until they get his meds right.
So my wish is for money for his next doctor and RX co pays.
Thanks for taking a peek at my wish!

I wanna Roller Derby

I was invited to join a really cool roller derby group. If you know me, you know that this would be really great for me. I need to get out and be social which its been a long time since I have been. Two of my sisters are joining and I wanna join too. The cost for the skates and pads are the problem. It will be like $150.00 to get the equipment necessary. That includes the skates, elbow, knee, wrist pads, mouth piece and the fee to get started. I can't afford to get started but once you have the equipment your good to go. This is not only a great social oppurtunity but a wonderful outlet for the aggression I have since my divorce (December 7, 2009). It's also great exercise, its not what your thinking the stuff on tv. this is flat rink roller derby which is not all violent and stuff. Thanks for listening and please throw some stars my way. :) Oh btw I included a youtube video the first few mins show you how much fun it is and how its not like what your first idea of it is.

My lab dog has lost 26 pounds in the last month. He is really sick. I am trying to do everything I can to keep him alive. He was recently diagnosed with Cushing's Disease, Diabetes and now a liver problem. He is taking insulin, Remeron, vitamin b12 and Pepcid. The vet has suggested SamE to help normalize the elevated liver enzymes. This dog has laid by my side for hours refusing to go outside until he felt I was better. These costs are really adding up fast and I could use some help. Thanks for looking.

a gas card to get to the hospital for my biopsy

a gas card to get to the hospital for my biopsy

Hello GON friends
I hope you all had a good and safe holiday.
Tamara and I is asking for a wish to be granted for a gas card.
Things are so rough right now for us like alot of others.
My biopsy date is Jan 11th 7:30am at Ohio State Univeristy.
I am not looking forward to this, but it needs done.
The drive from our home to OSU hospital is around 87 miles.
We just dont have enough funds to put in gas to make it there and back. Tamara is taking that day off so she can do the driving. I am not allowed to drive after the biopsy.
We have a 1995 Ford Explorer and not too easy on gas. Im guessing it will take around $35-$40
If anyone can help us out with what they can, maybe I can make it there and get this over with.
Sometimes I wish I cant make it, Im not looking forward to this at all. Tamara says "for her and the ones who loves me Do it!"
Soon after the biopsy, sometime at the end of Jan, they want to start me on the 48 wk interferon treatments.
Thank you GON friends.
With love,
Wayne & Tamara

Momykidd works with some little old ladies who can be quite cantakerous at times and even get physical by pinching her. To keep them sweet she likes to keep Reeses mini Peanutbutter cups on hand as a bribe. Part of my wish is for a big bag of Reeses to make her job easier and the other part is for a big bottle of hand sanitizer to make sure she dosen't get ill which could make the little ol ladies ill too.

Money to help replace money that was stolen

Not many know but in Aug.2009 I had cash stolen, license stolen, and my credit card stolen by some neighbor we figure who was arrested before fraud charges started appearing on my card. I got my new credit card back but the money and license was never found. Since I moved here I have lost money again two times and I have tore this place upside down looking for it. So if a neighbor comes in I watch my purse like a hawk!!! I keep my cash in one place and it is not there and I can not afford to lose any money..I still need someone to take me to get a copy of my dang license so I can order a pizza once in a while. I had some work checks cashed by old time friend and ordered a pizza for 10 bucks and later when a neighbor was over I said hand me my purse and only had 27 bucks in it and there should have been more than that... the picture too bad not a girl is how I feel like what the heck!!
Thanks for reading this....

I Sell Demon Babies on the Black Market. Need to Legitimize.

I Sell Demon Babies on the Black Market. Need to Legitimize.

I'm in the dangerous, secretive business of making and selling demonic babies on the black market. My clients are reluctant to purchase or barter for a baby because I don't have any way of providing them documentation to fool any social service investigators they might encounter. I need this printer to forge realistic adoption paperwork. It would also be awfully handy in printing shipping labels (it's okay, i put air holes in the boxes) and invoices.

I don't know the exact printer brand I am wishing for because the prices fluctuate (like on amazon) and I want to get the best deal possible. But, thanks to some advice from a fellow GoNer about ink pricing and quality, I will definitely be going with something from the Canon Pixma line. Right now $80 (the chip-in amount) would cover a Pixma all-in-one, but if I wind up just getting a printer, that's cool too.

I've recently started working with wood building different items to sell to make money.
I put this in the needy category because it's a need and will benefit my family.
This is a nice set on Amazon that I would like to have. Keep in mind some of these bits run $35 to $50 a piece.
They are $99 plus shipping but my wish is for $50

I would love for him to be able to do something besides televison and video games over there. Posting a few different ideas.

This is a post that Barbjon posted in the forums about a dirty braless barebutted old lady.

and asked me to put a thread up for her. where she works ,it is a private pay place. they take no medicare or any insurance. the people pay cash money per month . there is a little lady there who needs things because she doesn't have money to buy stuff. you all know ,things like shampoo, shower stuff , deodorant, this lady needs underwear and bras and stuff. she wanted me to ask if anyone could send even samples of shampoo deodorant,and things like that.this little lady wears a size 36 -B bra and size 8 undies. the bras can be used as long as the hooks on the back work. she said the little lady's bras are so bad that the hooks are hardly there anymore. and she said she would come on here tomorrow when she can and update. she said any help would be appreciated.

Lets help Mommykidd and Barbjon take the lady out for a shopping spree. Fifty bucks should buy some shampoo, soap, panties and at least a bra or two with careful shopping maybe a bit leftover for a hershey bar or two as well. If you can help let Mommykidd or Barbjon know as well in pms.

This wish is for Brenda Archambault. Many of us have recieved a card or two from this sweet lady and we know she loves to send cards to let people know she's thinking of them or wishing them a happy birthday or just as a little pick me up.

So i'm requesting everyone send her card and mail supplies - wether its a few postage stamps, leftover cards from holidays past, or whatever else you can think of that would help with her card giving as the holidays approach us.

I am wishing for $20.00 so Archambault can buy whatever else she may want or need. Please PM me or Heavenleigh for her mailing informatin.

I went through my drawer the other day & found that most of my socks are Sunday socks.
They are all holey! I have maybe ybe
2 or 3 pair that aren't holey, but they don't look that great either! I could use some unholey socks to perform my evil deeds in throughout the week. I absolutely hate having cold feet. Should you support my evility, I shall purchase unholey short & long socks, perhaps in a variety of colors & maybe even a couple of pairs of fuzzy, warm, around the house socks. Thanks for checking out my wish! Update: Someone(not sure if they wanted me to say who) sent me a pair of pink fuzzy socks & yellow slipper socks! Thank you! / Update #2: mom22 donated $5 towards the necessary foot coverage that will help me implement my evil plan! I adjusted the amount. Thank you! :}
