Thanks luckyclover--I've tried to get past it these days and move on, but it still bothers me and I'm sure the issue will resurface again the next time she is bitchy to me.  The one thing she did to me that was really rude that weekend was to look me up and down rudely--you know like you did in high school to girls you couldn't stand.  i'm sure she was checking out waht i was wearing.  it was really rude and sil even noticed.  i swear she bore a hole throug me with her stare!  how do you respond to something like that?  i just ignored it.


I love the idea of providing a cheerful response--other ppl have suggested that and I am really going to try to do that.


Right now I'm trying to figure out if I should email her to get her sister's email (I need to send her some pictures) or if I should have hubby do it.  Any thoughts?  She can't really be rude to me in an email, and if she does at least it will be in writing.

Holy crap, alb!  I can't believe she is STILL behaving this way towards you as long as you guys have been married!!!  She certainly doesn't deserve such a wonderful DIL -- and you really are if only for the reason that you have throttled her after all the things she has put you guys through.  I really think it's a jealousy issue with her and unfortunately, may never change.  You already know that it would be a fruitless effort to try and have a conversation with her about her behavior as it seems as though that's just her character.  I'm really sorry you are going through another issue with her, but really happy that you don't have to be around her very often (and won't have to see her but maybe for a few times the next few years).  I remember our conversation some time ago about "boundaries" and she's crossed a million, but just keep maintaining your composure with her.  That way, you know that you have ALWAYS been the better person in all situations involving her.  I'm glad that A supports you in your frustration; it helps when you have hubby who is always in your corner.  Let me know if you ever need to vent.  Just call.  You know I have had my fair share of dealing with "outlaws".  Hugs to you.

Definitely get your hubby to do it. Just try to avoid any contact with her. Make your hubby do all the dirty work. Even if you think she can't be rude, she probably can. It's better to do a preemptive strike. Oh god, I just endorsed a Bush idea. Shoot me now.
