That's a good idea Tee.

Happy update: Mr. Randy came through for me!!

Dave picked up 5 bags this morning.

I'm smack in the middle of other projects at the moment, so I can't devote any time to it right now, but I'm thrilled it is in the garage ready to go!!

Hurray!

I think we should all send postcards of gratitude to Randy. Just think, what better show of appreciation from all over the country/world to put a smile on someones face, eh? I bet that would make his day!

Shoe, that is the best idea I've heard in a year! I'm in. We just need Randy's address. Trish???

We are all so quick to complain when things aren't right at businesses; we need to remember to compliment exemplary actions.

Just iterating I'm all for it, so I don't leave ya'll stranded! Hilarious!

I can just see the surprise on Randy's face...and I've never seen him! Then again you're talking to someone who found great fun leaving presents on people's doorsteps and never letting on who sent it. (I'm mischievous, ain't I!) Rolling my eyes.

Congrats Trish! Hurray! It's so nice to get something that seems impossible. And please take "as you go " photos. I just can't seem to get the hang of Quik Wall yet. So maybe if I see you in action, I will get over my anxieties about it.

Shoe, you are too cute Rolling my eyes.

Count me in too! I agree, those that provide such great customer service do need to be shown appreciation!!

Debbie, you'll get the hang of it....just start with a small project to get the feel for it. If you have any questions you can tree-mail me if you'd like.

He'd be quite surprised to get a few postcards from around the country. This could be fun. I will make and award a special microbadge to each person who sends him one.
