I was reminded to tell everyone that if you do make a donation to use the "personal' tab on Paypal, otherwise there will be a service charge for each transaction.

Thanks again, to everyone.

Even if you cannot donate, your well wishes are noted and and I am forever grateful for them, they mean alot to me.

No, they never returned my email and I am looking at other places.:(

To2K,

I will do that, and make sure that you are credited with the donation, for tax purposes?:)

I have tried to PM each of you to make sure you know how much I appreciate this.

My main goal is to get storage and pay off the final bills for the utilities...with your help.

If I can do that I can find a place with a relative/sister.

--------

I''ll send you my info Via PM!

Thanks tons again!

You should freak the sibling who started all this out by telling them to get a room ready, you and Ed are moving in for the duration!!! ;) :D

(I know you couldn't stand to be around them but it would be funny to panic them for a bit! Yea, I'm mean!!!)

Ok - need some PayPal help...

I selected "Gift". And the money was coming from my PayPal account, not a credit card. Yet PP still wanted to charge me a fee!

Any ideas why???

If you go to the "personal" tab on the site you can transfer money for free?

That may help, I still have not figured things out either!:)

Thanks again!

Dude,

A few good thoughts would be much appreciated.

I wish I didn't have to ask for donations. Sometimes a thought or prayer is more than enough.

It's good to read that people are even thinking of me.

I have a family that lacks that sense of 'togetherness' that I wish we had-
I am really glad that I have found it here on PT.

So, toss out a prayer to your god, he'll pass it on to my god and the world be be right when it's all said and done!

Rock on!

LOL,

God works in mysterious ways.

And I swear,
He's sent me some people that I will never, ever be able to thank for their kindness. I will be able to repay them literally, but, how can I thank them for the humility they have put into my heart.

Some of you have stated that you wish you could help out with more than a few dollars or prayers.

Do not discount your efforts. You do not know how much you have made a difference with an envelope or prayer in your heart.

Stone Soup?

I remember a kid's story about a man who was poor and hungry and came across a small village-I am paraphrasing the story here...I don't want to get sued for plagarism?;).....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stone_soup

Looking it up I see that it has been told in many versions but the moral of the story was what could be done when people pitched in toward a goal.

----------------

I am stunned and embarrassed at the response to my quandry.

Please do not tell me that "you wish you could do more".

Do me a favor and walk around for the next week with your head held high and a lilt in your step. Feel good about what you have said and what you have done for me.

No, do not feel good, feel proud.....every time I turn around I am literally left breathless..thanks to all of you.

Pet Talk's motto is "We know every pet is special".

Let's not forget the people who own the the pets.

What is above 'special'?:)

I want to say that I am totally stunned at the response to my thread/dilemma.

Everyday there is one more letter, card and note that humble me more than you could ever know.

Someone dropped me a note that made me cringe.

It mentioned something about my commenting on one of their posts.

I was a little embarrased because I thought I angered them in some way.

Nope, they went on to pay me a nice compliment and wished me well, they also stuck a few dollars into the envelope.

---

I will sit down to write you all a little note via a PT PM.

If I do not get around to you at the moment? Blame it on Major LES. IT seems I have been struck with a terminal case of it.

There may not be crying in baseball.

NO one has said anything about PT.

Thank goodness for THAT.;)

I would like the Paypal information please. I could go find that letter that Jack Roush sent me, but Paypal is quicker. Hmm but then again, a note in the mailbox is more personal. I'll take both the paypal information and a reminder of the snail mail address. I know I have the card in my keepsake box, but once I open that, I may not get anything else done this evening.

Oh and Richard, my other Grandma was officially diagnosed today with early stages of Alzheimer's disease. (The family knew, but the doctor finally agreed today.) I hope that Jack leaves this Grandma alone!

Richard, you are one of my most favorite posters here on PT! You always make me laugh and smile with how you view things. You are one of the most amusing people I know. To put in simply, you spread a lot of joy around PT so it is no surprise to me that everyone wants to help you.... I expect a lot of people feel as I do about you and the joy it brings knowing you and reading your posts. No wonder so many have jumped in to help you!

I am sorry to hear about your G-ma.

If not Jack? Keep an eye out for Ray Evernham, I never trusted him.:( Give her a huge hug for me and remember that patience is the key.

I know we should not joke about something like that, but I think that when we do it with love, it's o.k.

Prayers to your house, G-ma and to you!:love:

My brother came over to 'see how I was doing'.

When I went to show him all the work I did during the week he said we would need another month to get all the crap out.

I thought, No, it would take a month for ME TO GET ALL THE crap out of the backyard.

I am going to ask the new owner-if the court does not get another bid-to wait until the end of November to take over.

There is so much crap in the garage that there is no way I could do it all myself.

At first I thought maybe they would balk, but that would save them money to hire people to throw everything out. I cannot see anyone wanting to spend anymore money than they want, IT will get me another month here and that will save me the time and money to move out to a new place.

Most of the stuff is stuff my Dad saved over the years and jammed up parts of the yard and garage, so I hope they are kind enough to grant my wish.

I had a good day today and got rid of most of the front room furniture without trying!!!!!

Things are looking up and I have faith.....

Thanks for asking!:)

I hope you get that delay - you are right, the new owner would save money!

And you will get a little more time to see about a place for your frens...any update there?

I've not sent anything yet cause my bills need to come first...but send something I will!:love:

Thanks again,

I am dragging my feed about the frens.

I love them soooo much that I can't get moving to do anything.

I will soon and will let you all know.

I am waking up in the morning with PURPOSE!

That let's me know I am full of Urine and Vinegar.:eek:;)

Thanks again, Friends.
