Sara!

Duexlie,
I find myself making those comments, too. So does my H. I think we do it as subconscious stress/anger relievers? I made a comment the other night that I didn't really mean as anything and my H said, 'you like to get those jabs in, don't you?' I was shocked. I truly didn't mean anything by what I said, but that's how he took it. I apologized.

Sometimes we use humor to defuse certain situations. I think it's a natural thing to do. I try to think twice, or three times before opening my mouth and regretting whatever comes out of it!
