I'm through with you...

...thank you cards!!!  The final 15 of you went in the mail this morning and I couldn't be more thrilled.  After much suffering, I am not sorry to say good bye.  I think I might have to go to physical therapy to regain full motion and control in my writing hand.  And I don't care if I ever see another envelope that needs to be addressed or sealed again!  You are a huge monkey off my back and now I will have time to spend doing other things I don't want to do!

Re: I'm through with you...

  • Crap, I really need to start these... 

  • Good for you!!!  I am mostly done with mine but am still nagging DH to do his family and friends, LOL!
  • I'm a physical therapist (well I will be an official one in September)- I can help you! lol

    Good job getting them done!! We haven't started ours yet Confused

  • Congrats!  I'm really jealous...I feel awful that I haven't even started these yet, and I've been married for over three weeks!  I do have an excuse though...I'm a teacher and the last day of school for the year is only 2 weeks for tomorrow.  So I'm swamped with assessments and report cards and parent meetings and trying to cram in all the stuff that somehow didn't get taught over the whole year, haha!!  I plan on buckling down in the first week of July and getting them all out...but with over 100 thank you's to send, it's going to be a loooooong process!!

    Thanks for the offer!  I might just take you up on that.  :) 

  • Well DONE!!!!! Doesn't it feel good. I got those done a couple of weeks ago now wooohooo!

    I just sent the stuff that I sold from the wedding out so I am officially done with wedding stuff except waiting on photos!!!

    Can I tell you the MIL is driving me LOCO about pictures like I am holding out on her intentionally!

     

     

  • Great job!!  I've got about 15 written and need to send them out.  I'm waiting to finish until after I take the GRE next friday.  Then that weight will be off my shoulders and then I can whip out the TY cards and get them done...and then I'm FREE to do whatever I want!!! :)  I want to tear up the bushes in the front of our house and put new, prettier ones in and put a walkway next to our driveway, which are my weekend projects once these 2 things are done.

    Pam my MIL is doing the same thing! I keep telling her when I get them, she will know. 

    Good job on getting your thanks you's done. I actually sent the last of mine out today as well. They really are a pain and I'm glad they are out of my life.

  • That's great! I finished mine a week and a half ago, and then two days after I mailed the thank you's, about ten more gifts came (over the course of a week, not all at once). I haven't started this second round yet... I really don't want to. I also need to go to Dillards, because we have a place setting of china that came with no name attached to it. So I have no idea who sent it. I hope Dillards can tell us! 
    Anniversary
  • Congrats to all who have finished!  It's a wonderful feeling once it's all done.

    A tip for anyone who is interested:  type up your notes in a document first.  Mine ended up being 10 pages long!  But every single note I wrote is on there and none are more than 5 lines of type.  It allows you to put your thoughts down before you put pen to paper - my brain just doesn't work that way!  

    I went several rounds with the thank you cards, so when I would get back to it and have trouble getting started, I would peruse those I had written previously to get an idea of what kinds of things I talked about.  And it helped me to be sure not to write the exact same thing to everyone - like all my cousins who would have gotten cards on the same day and compared notes. 

  • Congrats!  We're getting close.  I have 5 left to write and DH has 6 left to right.  We have to wait to send a lot though because they were honeymoon registry gifts and we're waiting for the pictures we ordered to include with the cards.  Sidenote: I know a lot of girls get all up in arms on TK anytime someone mentions a honeymoon registry, but our family and friends LOVED it.

  • We considered a honeymoon registry and my rookie post on TK was a question about them - what are they? has anyone used them?  I completely got my feelings hurt!  And I didn't post on TK again for about 6 months because I was so gun shy.  I also think it's a fantastic idea and am excited that it worked so well for you!!
  • I had all of mine done, but we received another gift yesterday so I have another one to write.
