Well, I dont know if all of you remember...but on the day of my shower, my dog got hit by a car and died. Needless to say, the day was crazy, trying to get ready without crying, but once I was there, everything was OK.
It was very chaotic, h/e....67 ppl!! I made my rounds to pretty much every table (I thought), and as I was opening gifts, realized I forgot ONE table.
I felt terrible, but figured ppl would try to understand being that not only was it a tough day, but also I was being pulled from every angle.
Well, my fmil told me that one of the ladies (a distant cousin) said something like 'I didnt even know whose shower I was at.' Well, I feel bad and was thinking about mentioning something about it in the thank you card.
What do you think? Suggestions??

Re: Ow...feel bad
its just crappy that you have to feel bad about it...you didnt do it on purpose and now you feel like you have to make it right....i think that stinks dont let it bug you too much - things happen, you can say sorry for not having more time to chat in the thank you note and by doing that you did your part in trying to make things right

you want to know what - i know this sounds mean but you said its a distant cousin - who cares...you shouldnt let it get to you - i think its rude that she said that to your FMIL - my FMIL is nuts and would have told her where to go after a comment like that! ive never been to a party/wedding/shower and expected the person to spend 'x' amount of time talking to me....people expect too much these days, why cant they just let people enjoy themselves? thats the point isnt it?
I agree with this too... as well as the gal that said to tell her F off.. LOL
People are so self involved and wrapped up in in their own little worlds these days they look for crap to be offended with.
I have never gone to a shower or wedding and expected the bride to go out of her way to say hi to me. I .. go to her!! I mean come on... its her day to enjoy, not to entertain you. You are there to support and share the day!!! And , what a RUDE comment. ' I didnt even know who's shower I was at' Maybe she should have stayed home then. rude!

A thank you card should be just that, a thank you. Let your family spread the word about why you were not quite yourself.
It is so very sad.........
How are you doing?
