RSVP's to date > > Dear Noelle and Robert, > Attached is the RSVP list. It looks like we have 28 attending so far > including us and you. > I hope once you receive wedding gifts that you will send thank you notes > right away. Most people including myself hate it when a bride or someone > doesn't send a thank you note for a wedding gift or whatever for 6 months > or longer after the event. The sender has no idea if the recipient ever > received the gift, whether or not they liked it or it fit or whatever, or > whether they were grateful to receive it. That sort of delay can be very > annoying and rude. No one likes to give anyone anything without the > recipient expressing their gratitude in a timely and sincere manner, > otherwise the giver feels like why bother giving that person anything as > they are so ungrateful. This is just good manners to get along well in > society. We haven't received any gifts and no one has marked the web site registry that they bought anything. > I don't know if you heard, but my accounting associate at work is quitting > work in a few weeks right in the middle of the busy tax season. His > announcement came as a big surprise to all of us and means more work for > the rest of us for awhile. Apparently he isn't even going to another job, > but rather decided he didn't like this kind of work anymore and will just > live off of his property management and acting that he has been doing on > the side occasionally. I wrote a letter of recommendation to our owners as > to how to take advantage of this opportunity, so we'll see if they take > any of my advice. Because I never got along well with this person as we > was terribly moody, it could end up a good thing for me in the long run. > We'll see. > Hope all is well with you two. Our photos of Mom's Birthday and the > Antarctic trip came out very well. > We look forward to showing them to you, Mireille, and Alain when you are here. > We even captured the sounds of the penguins through Don's new digital camera > when we project them on the computer screen so it's like reliving the > experience all over again. Did Mark e-mail you? If so, what is his e-mail address? Thanks! > Love, > Gail
