Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

I am of the opinion that there are a couple of kinds of respect. There is the respect that we should just automatically show elders and people in authority such as teachers, bosses and law enforcement. (My mom was a single parent for much of my life so we spent a lot of time with my grandparents. Sass and back-talk were not an option. My boys were raised to treat their teachers with respect. I'd tell them, "You don't have to like them, but you will treat them respectfully.")

I think the other kind of respect is earned. One gets it by how they speak, act and treat others.


The fact of the matter is the whole 'respect' thing was a JOKE in reaction to her slap emoji which I thought was a JOKE over me welcoming the Pond with my usual morning greeting. No big deal. My feelings were never hurt'ruffled'rattled, and I feel bad for her reaction. There was no intent on my part to upset anyone. That is not how I get my kicks. I am into hugs, giggles, and smiles.
 
Laughed so hard I cried! :lau:lau

good thing you aren't female. We laugh so hard, we pee. :lau

Sorry, I feel bad. I didn't say anything. Honestly, part of me thought/hoped she was teasing in a dry humor sort of way. I was thinking...she can't possibly be offended by a general greeting directed at anyone who chooses to read it, right? WTH is right.



Sounds great! I'm glad it's going well.

Hey, WV/VW, early Happy Anniversary to you and 'ladder man'.

Good close baseball game. Boys won 3 to 1. Next game tomorrow at 4:30.

Congrats to the boys, and best of luck tomorrow!

and thank you. I hope to be as happy as you and the Princess, for as long as you have been, and will be! You're my inspiration!

Honestly, I've never been happier in my life. I have a wonderful husband that is crazy enough to love me! what more can a gal ask for? :D


Happy Anniversary @WVduckchick May your lipstick never fail.
