NOLA Notes

Today, I am working on my thank you notes for my shower attendees. I am extremely appreciative of all everyone did for me. But why are thank you notes so tedious? I’ve written one (yeay!) and feel I have earned a break (thus this post). And already, I’m saying to myself, “One down, nineteen to go.” And they just get harder down the line because it starts to feel like I am repeating myself. Not that anyone would know, because who reads other people’s thank you notes? But, I always endeavor to make each personal and unique. But are there 20 different ways to says thanks for a baby item? I’ll know by the end of today. Because I WILL finish them today. I am a stickler about thank you notes and getting them done as timely as possible.

But I can’t promise that there won’t be several mindless posts today just to break things up. It helps that I have a doctor’s appointment midday to give me a real break.

So tonight after the last thank you note is written, CS and I are gonna make all of Sun’s goodies fit in her closet and room. Too bad I can’t drink for this. It will warrant some liquor. I’ll at least be sure that CS drinks!

Update: I am just about done. Except CS says someone dropped off a gift for me with him. So add one more. The last one I have to do is for a friend who said that I did not have to send her a note. Well, now it’s a challenge. I’ve come up with her own “Mad Libs Thank You Note.” Once the finishing touches are done on it (I need to brush up on what exactly is an adverb…), I will be done! Now on to the task of making all this stuff fit in a very tight spot.
