Thanks Phoenix - I think you are right(no, I KNOW you are right!). Believe me, I am trying to avoid these convos. It's hard when we are still under the same roof and she keeps initiating. Should I just walk away?? I am really not saying much back to her anymore. I had no idea SIL was going to send me a card. I haven't seen or heard from her in 2 months. She usually does send cards though.

I think you are right about separating. This is such a difficult living environment. I just wanted to separate without getting lawyers involved yet. I did tell her that I respected her feelings and am letting her go - I promise that was it. Still have a dent in my head from last week's 2 x 4s, so I did good in that regard.
