I agree with isnthatodd, but some people are like that. One of my best friends always ask people to help her and never says thanks. She is the nicest person and I love her to death. I just chalk it up to "that's how she is" and move on. At least you know that you did a very good thing!!!
That said, getting a thank you is always nice-hope you do. :-D |
IM not expecting anyone to jump on a soapbox and shout it out from the roof tops but c'mon a little 'thank you' goes a long way..and poor or not, a TY doesn't cost you a thing...
You did a great deed! good for you.. |
same thing happened to me.no jumping up & down,just a simple "thank you",or even that the gift was received !
my other thought waS THAT THIS WAS TO BE USED FOR GIFTS FOR NEEDY,COMFORTING GIFTS.when the gift isn't even acknowledged,it makes you wonder....are they really used for the original intent,or just a "sob story" to get free things? am i being pesimestic ,or what ? but i agree ,i would do it again,in fact alredy have ,but wonder if i'm being "taken"? please let me know if i'm the only one who has these thoughts....... dar |
saying "Thank You" seems to be a forgotten thing of the past for a lot of folks these days.
Just know you did what was in your heart to do & pray for the lady. She may have more problems than she can handle right now. |

No I think that is normal. My children receive used clothing all the time and I make sure they and I thank the people gifting us the items.

No excuse for her not acknowledging that she got the stuff......e-mail or call her and ask if she got it.

I use the Feeecycle in our area. If I would have gotten that I would have had to hug you!! You are so thoughtful. And I would have thanked you online! However, maybe this lady doesn't have internet or hasn't been able to get to a computer since she got it.??? Just know that you did a great thing!

some time ago I sent some of my handed fabrics to a gal (on another chat room) and she thanked me, but later she sent me a lovely wall quilt she made using my hand dyed fabrics, she even hand quilted it, I was so overwhemed, I just could not belive she went to all that to make me a lovely quilt. She used the rest of my hand dyed fabrics to make a Baltimore applique quilt, It got rave reviews and is on display in her state capital building for a year! She even gave me credit for the dyeing, now how huge a thankyou is that?!!! really made me feel so good.
I hope she felt my thank you as no words are enough some times to convay your feelings, but we must try! |
Just a little Thanks goes a long way, so Yes they are passed out a lot around here, Don't care for when you give a Gift or Do somthing and No one says Thanks,dosen't have to be a formal note !!!
Did know of a situation where the child/teen that before could use something was to send a note to the giver,after a while, was much better at automatically Thanking the Giver, This is a Great topic to be passed around with the Holidays upon us :) and to remind our little ones to say Thanks So Thanks for the timely reminder!! :) |
