Cathy: Uh, oh. Charlene: Uh, oh. Andrea: Uh, oh. Cathy: My fault. Charlene: My fault. Andrea: My fault. Cathy: I never actually finished my thank-you notes from last Christmas. Charlene: I never finished my wedding thank-yous. Andrea: My daughter just graduated from college, and there's a baby bonnet I never acknowledged. Cathy: I should have done it right after Christmas, but I was still addressing Christmas cards. Charlene: I couldn't decide what last name I was using, so I couldn't get any thank-you note cards printed. Andrea: I wanted to send a picture of Sara wearing the bonnet, but I never got a copy made. Cathy: Now I owe too big of an apology to even start! Charlene: The job is too huge. It looks over me! Andrea: It hangs over my head everywhere I go!! Cathy: That isn't a storm cloud! It's accumulated correspondence guilt!! Cathy: We've darkened another weekend for the whole country. Charlene: Now we owe 1,298,000 notes of apology. Andrea: At least no one can say women don't take responsibility.

The only thing that could be worse is if there were four of them together. After that, the ‘storm cloud’ would be more of a major earthquake. Before that happens, will you three GET A LIFE!?!

Funnily enough, when I read this strip I find myself thinking of all the things I should have done but didn’t do… and there’s a lot of them.

Me too, RinaFarina. I do what I can, and the rest I’ll have to get over.

It’s just plain rude not to thank someone for buying you something special for whatever occasion. Worse than that? Being a cross stitcher (like me) and going through all the time and trouble to make something personal especially for someone and not getting a thank you for that either. :-(
