and she was very upset to hear that she didn't get her thank you because I didn't get my proofs. I e-mailed my photographer and he said they'll get to them in a few weeks. I don't know when that means I will get them by. It's been almost 4 months since my wedding, is that a really long time to wait to send thank you's? Actually it'll be close to 6 months by the time we design them, order them and actually get them out. I'm going to need ritalin for that project

I haven't gotten mine out yet either! I have to call my photographer to tell her what I want.

A big group of friends went to a wedding together and we all just recently got the TY cards - 20 months after the wedding ! Meanwhile the couple had a baby, so we surmise that a christening will be coming up soon.

I actually have 1 sample thank you that the photographer sent me but I really dont' like one of the pictures which is why I'm not so patiently awaiting my proofs. Anyway I'm thinking of mailing her the sample just to shut her up! She's blind anyway she won't even know how massive my arm looks in the picture

I'm laughing so meanly at the she's blind part!
so i guess you didn't get digital proofs then? I actually had mine done and ordered within a month of the wedding... only for them to continue to sit there. it SUX to write them. I recommend drinking wine while doing them. But most people i know are like, oh, you have a year (I know not everyone thinks that though).

lol no I meant it as a joke, laugh all you want. If you want me to make it funnier my dad thought she should have fax machine. I guess he didn't get the grandma is blind memo.
I was thinking of taking an aderol to help me get through writing out the thank you's . I actually had a bm tell me that her friend sent out her thank you's after a year and she considered it 'tacky'. Gotta love the comments from the peanut gallery.

Re: grandma wants to know where my thank you's are..
Older people like thank you cards within the first month... it's crazy. I just finished mine today and they are going out tomorrow. People don't understand that you have to wait for proofs, etc
