I think so. But it was nebulous and how do you call a passive aggressive attack? I asked “Uh did you just . .” but no effect. I mucked me up good a for a couple hours saturday and I’m still brooding on it, but I’m trying to focus on the good. Met lots of boys . .

My father, Virgo-Libra cusp believes he is never wrong and places his importance in the fact that he’s a Baptist and he raises my niece (a 4 yr old BRAT) because my sister is husbandless and irreponsible. (Even though his “noble deeds” only facilitates my sister dumping her kid on mom & dad whenever she wants.) ANYWAY, my 5 year old and I were visiting them and the girls were racing cars down a ramp and grampa says, don’t push the cars, let them race, so they dont break something and if I see you do it again, I’ll paddle both of you. Like I’m not even in the room and I can’t discipline my own kid because my sister can’t??? Control freak. The girls settle down for a few, but soon are pushing the cars again (they are VERY competitive). My dad jumps up and is about to go after my kid with his paddle stick, even though my neice is the one throwing the cars, not sharing, tattling, whining and being a complete brat. So my kid, Lily, runs over to me scared to death. And I have to say: If I think Lily needs punished I will take her home and she will be grounded to her room for the night, which was not the case beacuse she did nothing wrong. We left after that.

Passive aggressive? Ha! How about just plain ol’ aggressive.

Yup. Got out-maneuvered by a 14 year old Scorpio on Sunday. Blah….

Pissed my daughter off, too. But it actually worked out ok in the end, so neither of us are fussed about it.

And today, my poor daughter woke up feeling sick & dizzy–probably the kickback remnants of a cold she’s been battling since late last week. So she stayed home to rest, and I stayed home to play mommy, and it’s been lovely quiet and just us two hanging out, hiding from our responsibilities and enjoying the respite.

Just found this out late last night but at my son’s work one of his assist. managers grabbed his arm to talk to him on Saturday. He pulled away from her two or three times and she kept grabbing at his hands. Strictly against corporate policy. Lucky she didn’t get karate chopped, but he’s reporting it to his manager.
