Low Key Easter Weekend Recap

Y'all it almost happened.  It seemed like it was almost a perfect carpet install.  Then the dude grabbed a broom and swept all of the carpet on top, swept the floor, then swept the stairs going downstairs.  Thanks for taking our clean carpet and giving it a fresh layer of unknown dust and dirt all over it.  Then we looked when they left and saw a gap by the baseboard on the landing we weren't happy with and I know they had to have seen it so I fear shoe molding is in our future which we hate.  The final "of course?"  We had a TON left.  Like enough to recarpet another set of stairs easily.  Uh, why are you sending someone out to measure to give us a quote and we have enough left over to carpet another set of stairs and have enough of another piece for a big strip in front of the washer and dryer.  This goes well beyond the "10% waste" they have you get.   (It stretches 2/3 the length of our basement) So begins the process of trying...

Thank you Hump Day Poll


I met the Mr when I was 17, and I remember my future mother in law giving me a thank you note for something I did.  I thanked her for it, and she said she always sends thank you cards.  Since I was 17 years old, I never gave it a second thought as I usually thanked people at the moment for something they did or said.  I loved the feeling of knowing someone took extra time out of their day to thank someone and how nice it feels to get snail mail.  Ever since then, I've always done thank you notes.  It's second nature.

I keep all of the ones I receive because it just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy to see that someone appreciated something I did for them or gave them.  It kind of reinforces the desire to want to keep doing things to make people smile or make their lives easier knowing its appreciated.

Do you send thank you notes?

  1. I always believed it was universally practiced since my mom was always insistent on sending thank you cards for everything. But mom's being mom's, she tended to do that for me and my brothers and just had us sign or write a little something in the card before she would send it out. It is a nice gesture and one that is always appreciated. There's no app for that!

  2. I do send thank you cards. Someone once told me that I was over the top about it, which really bothered me, but I've continued to send them anyway. I enjoy writing them and putting a smile on someone's face.
