Not Engaged Yet

Well, that was interesting....

Hope you all had a great weekend and happy belated Mothers Day to the moms here! 

Friday afternoon SO and I were in the kitchen opening the mail.  I found an envelope addressed to me from a very fancy-pants hotel here in town, where I have never stayed.  I opened it up and it was a long letter congratutlating me on my engagment and inviting me in for a consulation for our reception, hand signed, business card included.

I stood there for a moment and then looked at SO and said, 'Do you know something I don't?'  He took the letter, read it over, looked at me and said, 'Nope'.  LOL!  I threw it in the trash.

I'm only assuming I got added to a mailing list through TK or something else, but it was pretty funny.  Smile

    TK sold my address and people sent me a bunch of crap before I got engaged. It really ticked me off that they did that.

    I'm with cschiano on this one, I was annoyed to find that as soon as I signed up at TK, I was getting random wedding mailers.  

    My daughter doesn't know that BF and I have been discussing this.  She will be one of the first to know after the proposal, but no need getting her all worked up until the time comes.  I would hate for a misplaced piece of mail to be the way she finds out.

    Oh, I didn't think about this!  My 9 year old often gets the mail for me.  I don't 'think' he really looks through it, I've never instructed him not to, but there's also a good chance he does.  Hopefully that's the first and only peice of wedding-related mail I get.  This one was a benign white envelope with my name on it, so even if he saw it, there was no way to know what it was about until you read the letter.  Stuff about registries and dresses will be much more obvious.
