    My sister insulted me yesterday on FB, and when I called her on it, she claimed that it was only a joke and that she was the victim of what I said back. I hate passive-aggression and I am tired of her trying to make herself look better at my expense. Sisters cannot get along - my mother's legacy to her daughters.

    Passive aggressives often throw loaded jokes, thinking that it softens the blow, to shroud the delivered insult with their joke disclaimers.

    She knows not to go there, thinking a more public setting would prevent you from responding. It's the only way to shut them down, no matter who it is, until they reboot.

    Hugs Elsie. That is not an easy exchange to have to acknowledge, and share with us all.

    Why do jalapenos grow so much later than tomatoes?! It's ruining my salsa game.

    Wait until they turn red. So much better.

    I know. And I was thinking, if we move it a little to the left, it would be so much better.

    Maybe fill the pipe with something soft

    Thank you. I got my son's girlfriend one as a Christmas gift for this year and I'm really hoping she feels the same.

    It doesnt matter how far you've come or what you've had to overcome.....there will always be someone that sees you now and never saw the fight, the struggle. They may be fighting their fight and be jealous that you are not like them. They will be angry, they will try and minimize you as being lucky. They will find like minded people to commiserate with. You will not fit in. Dont get angry, they are unaware......the truth need not be loud or even spoken. Not being heard doesnt make it any less true. Be at peace with that.

    Truth!

    Pay special attention to people who try to knock you down for your success or confidence. I used to feel bad for people like that, but in the end they're just insecure and toxic which is quite a sad combo. Watch out for their rages too.

    I say pay them no attention.

    I agree, but when that behavior is their habit, pay attention to that choice they make to be that way to you. It's not cute or romantic. It's mostly obnoxious and creepy.

    Agree. One needs to keep the crazies within your line of sight. It's due diligence. Insecure and toxic people who are rageful can do damage.

    It's foolish to disregard or dumb down the security risks they are.
