Re: October brides
hi date twin!most of mine are out...like 90%...but I still have to finish for the 'straggler gifts' - I received a gift as recently as a couple of weeks ago.
my MIL called me rude because they weren't out before the holidays.
she is overly aggressive. It was easier for me to write the damn TYs than to deal with her talking about how 'rude' DH and I are...

thanks cookie! You're too sweet. honesty, my trick was to type out the thank yous when i was on the train to work on my bb. i came up with a bunch of ways to say 'We are so appreciative of the generous wedding gift' and then I'd make sure to add a nice opening line and a closing line. I also was able to re-use some of the wording for people who were not at all related.
You'll get there. Give yourself a few to do each day. If you bucket people into groups you can mail those groups out once completed.

Re: October brides
yes!! we had to wait 3 1/2 months to get our pro pics back, and then I had issues w/ ordering the actual thanks yous and had to return them, but this weekend we finally banged them out and I am dropping them in the mail today!I literally wrote the same thing on everyone's card - whatever, I don't think they're comparing (esp DH's guy friends)!!!
