Weird! Baby shower invite

[joenali]

For someone I swear I don't know. I can't even recall this person. I wonder how they got my address?? I've searched on Facebook and found her but I don't recognize her at all. Not even the same high School or college . It's weird.

Could it be a friend of your husband's somehow? I got invited to a baby shower for one of DH's friends and I had met the person all of three times.

[joenali]

He doesn't know her either. I have a text out to my mom, it might be someone she knows.

I don't even want to RSVP, I don't know her.

[zoidberg]

Maybe the daughter of a friend of your mom's? People do strange things when it comes to weddings and showers.

[Stingyshark]

That is odd. I barely want to have a baby shower with family-

[kams]

Very weird! Maybe you know the hostess & she thought you and mom-to-be we're friends or something? How do you RSVP to that? Lol

[kams]

Were, not we're. Damn iPad makes me seem like an idiot & I can't even edit!

Lol! I don't even know the hostess. I'm waiting to talk to my mom, she's out of town.

You should go! Either you'll find out who it is or you will know no one and they will all wonder who you are!

Then again, I hate baby showers.

Could it be the wife of some cousin that never changed her last name?

[joenali]

It's such a mystery at this point. I don't think I have a cousin with the name on the invite. I'm not going, it's too far away. This is so weird. I'm leaning toward someone who my mom knows and they just want gifts!

[joenali]

Just talked to my mom, she doesn't know who it is either. I'm baffled.

[trigal]

What are you going to say when you RSVP?

[Deleted]

People invite randoms when gifts are involved. I got a grad party invite for some person I have never met in my life. Turns out it was my Dad's cousin's granddaughter or something ridiculous.

[Raggedeannie]

Any mutual friends on Facebook?

[hannahb]

That's strange. I've been invited to bridal and baby showers before where I know I'm invited only for a present but at least I've known who the person is!

[zoidberg]

I wonder if it is some kind of mistake, like they meant to invite their cousin with the same name as you and looked up the address online and picked the wrong person. That could possibly happen.

Or it's the daughter of a coworker who really wants gifts.

DH and I get a few letters/cards from some old lady in Arkansas. Once it was for her grandchild's graduation.

We don't know this person or this family (none of our family knows who it is). Not sure how she got our address or DH's name but I feel so bad for her because we never respond and she writes the nicest notes in the cards.

I normally lurk, but this caught my attention.  I wouldn't be surprised at all if that were my H's grandmother.  She lives in AR and has literally hundreds of people that she writes and sends cards to.   She's 93 and emails as well.  I have a feeling some people don't remember/know her, but she doesn't forget ANYONE.

LOL too funny, maybe it's one of DH's old high school teachers or something but I have no idea how she would have known DH moved to where we are now. It's so weird but we have a good laugh every time we get something from her.

that is too funny
