A bit of history first: Bought a house in May when I had a good job. Married in August; VERY small wedding. (siblings, parents & grandparents at a house). One week after my wedding, I lost my job unexpectedly. My husband is self employed and struggling. To be honest, it is/was very stressful and even now we struggle to pay bills and have food. (and we are a lot of debt) Thank you notes have been on my mind, but choice between food and bills & sending notes...well, food and bills have won out. I am amazed we still have a house and our marriage has lasted. :(
Anyways, now my Aunts & Uncles (who weren't at the wedding) are making snide remarks about not receiving a thank you note for their gift and why we didn't put any announcement in the paper about being married. I haven't seen these people in over 10 years and I do not know if they realize how bad it is for us financially.
Should I still send a thank you note, and borrow money for the costs? (after all this time)
