Ladies, FIRST, let me thank the following:
Nora - thank you for the Beautiful Christmas Card!
Janelle - Thank you SOOOOOOOOOOOO much for the quilling papers!!!!!!
Becky - I just received the Hallmark movie today, and THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
Please Ladies, I need to express my deepest apologies for failing miserably at the ROAK for the past month. I need to let you all know that I will be imposing a SELF-EXTENSION on the current ROAK list until the end of January/into February for myself to all of you, as I desperately need to make up a month to every one of you wonderful Ladies! I am sure that most of you read what I wrote about a month ago about my Sister-In-Law being hospitalized and nearly dying. Please read the update I will be posting to there to explain why I have been absent for a month.
Ladies, I truly, whole-heartedly cannot express the gratitude to all of you for all of the wonderful notes and gifts you have sent to me. You cannot fathom how appreciated they are in this time of immense stress.

Hi Cyndie,
Not to worry. A RAOK is just what it states. A random act of kindness. It is about the selfless act of giving. . . not an expectation of receiving something back. This is why we started the RAOK. To encourage one another during their tough times, to bring a smile on a rainy day. It's not about "owing" someone for their kindness.
Enjoy your RAOK gifts and know how much you are loved!!

Hi Janelle,
I wanted to say thank you for the beautiful card and the lovely hankie. I have been collecting hankies for years and I have always wanted a plain white one...the white rose in the corner makes it perfect!
hugs,

RAOKs are to make all of us feel love, happiness,joy and put a smile on our faces when we have had a rough day or week. I will be honest I have cried over some of the heartfelt letters I have received, that you trust me with your secrets and some of the words shared. Letters treasured forever
Plus not all of you know this but I love, love sending and getting Farmgirl mail. I know it makes me feel special and loved so I thank you all.
Off to sign up for next year.
Hugs,
Deb

Cyndie, So sorry getting out this Thank You to you so late. I received your nice holiday card in the mail several days ago. I just love the picture on the front- so many fine details to appreciate in the painting! I will enjoy looking at it for days to come.
I am very sorry about your difficult month. Please do not feel like you have "failed" this ROAK. We all have things going on in our lives, some of which we share with others and some of which we do not. With God's help, we're all just doing the best we can on any given day. I pray things will go better for you and your sister-in-law in the days to come.
Blessings to you on your life's journey. |

Joanna, Thank you so much for the sandwich/snack bag, bookmark, note, and candy cane. You do really nice sewing! I have been recently thinking about how to cut down on plastic bag use, and the cloth bag fits the bill perfectly! I have enjoyed participating in this RAOK. Thank you for having hosted it.
Blessings to you on your life's journey. |
