Hmmm... more wacky neighbor news.
Neighbor husband came over and chatted with DH; he needed help with something. Then when DH went outside for his walk, the husband was there as well and asked to go on the walk with him. DH figured he wanted to talk, so said that was fine.
He went on about how "hurt" his wife was, especially that DH had called her a bad word. DH clarified, "I did not call her that, I told her to pull her head out of her {butt}. And I apologized to her,
several times, right after I said it. I should not have said it. I also apologized to you for it. I am done apologizing for it." (I told DH earlier that, once she's over herself, she was probably going to nag him to apologize again, and I told him he'd apologized enough, she has some apologizing to do.)
Her husband said, "Well, you raised your voice. She's very hurt by that." DH reiterated that he did indeed raise his voice. He said that she clearly was cranky, DH was tired, and it was just a bad deal all the way around. But other than the rude statement, he stood by everything else he'd said. (Good for him!)
So her husband said, "Well, I think she's going to be mad about this for a while this time." DH said that was fine.
And quite frankly, I'm ecstatic! I'm looking forward to being in my backyard or front yard without being assaulted by her. Of course
I'm not usually the one she comes over for anyway... But now I'm sounding catty...
