Diana, thank you sooo much for the sweet little package. Starburst my favorite! Wednesday was a bittersweet day for me as the kids went back to school (a sr. and a soph.). I came home from work to your sweet package and cute note card. Thank you!
The sweet part of school starting back up... I can get back to RAOKing my FG sisters. :o ) Put my "fun money" back to MJF and not in extra food - my teen boy is a bottomless pit with hollow legs!
Blessings, staci FG# 973 :o )

HI, Mellaisbella Melanie. Just a short note to see if you got my RAOK package. I mailed it off a couple of weeks ago. Don't know how long it takes for your mail. Hope it got to you alright. pegabner peggy |

Thank you Diana!!!! I take care of my Mom at home and we are both almost literally tied to the house. She can't go anywhere and I can't/won't leave her alone. My brother comes by every afternoon and he stops and picks up the mail for us. When he brought in your package, it was like Christmas. He just looked at me funny and said "Are you all right?". LOL He just doesn't understand us Farmgirls. Thrills my heart for someone to send something. My little Mama gets excited too! The York candy bar was wonderful, then I found the beautiful hand crocheted/embroidered hankie!!! And the trim was red!!!! Mama is doing so much better now, still can't leave her alone, but that is ok. Thanks for putting some excitement into a sometimes rather long day!!! Much love and many blessings!

Thank you queenofadventure for the sweet note, "When in Doubt" napkin and the magnet.
Very colorful and nostalgia. I love the card. Will write back to you soon.
I am always doubting. Never thought about wearing red though.
I love magnets. I have few of them on one side of the refrigerator.
Many many thanks for taking the time to write and think about me. |

I was RAOKed by Toni today! I spent all morning waiting on an oil change and after the mechanic not being able to do it, I came home and found a package waiting on my doorstep! :D I was a tin painting of a beautiful weathered barn and a JOHN DEERE tractor!!--my fav! :D I just can't decide where to hang it up though I am thinking it is perfect for my kitchen cupboards. She sent a cute cute cute journal that my son promptly claimed for him because "Tractors are for boys, Mommy" ;) Thank you for thinking of me Toni. I love it all! ;d hugs Jessie

I have so many R.A.O.K. to share it is just wonderful how these little acts of kindness brings so much joy to a person's life. Even from those we've never met. I wish I could have you all come to my house for a farmgirl tea party. We have a great Best Western Inn right in town. Maybe Diane could plan it for us. In the fall or spring would be great! Dream!!!
First, off speaking of Diane, she sent me a lovely book on soap making and hankies for my project. It was so surprising when I opened the book to see them tucked in the pages. And, my dear Ruth sent me more hankies, just lovely. Theresa sent me teas that I can drink, gluten free and everything. I have a stack of cards a mile high and I'm going to sit down and write all of you a thank you card. Then, I'm going to post who you all are again. It brought tears to both my husband and me to see how much I'm loved by women I've never met in person.

Today, I received a butterfly card and bookmark from my dear Angie Red Caboose farmgirl. I love the words. "May you live your day with quiet strength. May evening bring you a peaceful heart. May your sleep be filled with restful dreams. And may you wake up each morning with a sense of renewal and the feeling taht life is good."

Susan, So glad you enjoyed your little pin cushion. I had fun getting it ready to send to you - so much fun doing RAOKs! Just sending some "sunshine and hugs" along to another sister is a blessing! Hugs, Ruth

Hi Anna, You have really made my day - oh my goodness what a great RAOK - I love the lace - I can make lots of pretties with it, my mind is racing with ideas! And your sweet note sharing yourself with me, we really are alot alike! Even names! I was named after my Auntie. I don't have a middle name, but friends will put "Anne" with it, sort of funny, huh? I love Goldens, what color is yours? I don't own one, but hope to someday - I have three small doggies that I love though. I would love to visit SD someday - it's on my "bucket list"! Thanks so much for thinking of me and making my day so much brighter! I loved it all!  Hugs, Ruth

Peggy sent me the most wonderful relaxation cd along with a lavendar eye pillow that she makes. You just gotta here this cd. It will wash all your tension right out the window. It is Celtic music which is one of my favorites. All instrumental which is another great way to relax. The pillow smells delicious. I want to get the cd to include with some of my items on my etsy shop.

Anna you have thrilled me with the bluegrass CD's!!!! I played both of them as soon as I got them and I would never be able to say which one I liked best! There were alot of songs on these I haven't heard before. I do wish we could have met before the South Pittsburg Cornbread Festival. If you EVER head back this way let me know and we will do something fun in Tennessee. South Pittsburg is right down the road!! Thank you again for the music, sweet note and for thinking of me!!!! Many blessings, Farmgirl Sister, Gail #61:o)!!! |
