I have a problem with you publicly blaming me when we lose in cornhole.

I am generally on the receiving end of this. My sister is the only one that does it to me. Although I have done this before to others, I try not to because I learned a while ago how it makes me feel.
This is a good post!

I'm not sure how I would quantify you being called a bully…could be a compliment

Trish calls me a Bully all the time But I kind of like it.

It's amazing how when I am in a particularly sensitive mood something can hurt my feelings that typically I would laugh off. The trick is that 9 times out of 10 people don't know when I am feeling sensitive to be more careful with the words.

I need to remember this when I make a joke at someone else's expense.

Thanks Becky! My sister was on the receiving end of this from me for years. God has worked on my heart in this area!

I've always struggled with it because I've unfortunately had a sarcastic kind of sense of humor. You know, guys in the locker room kind of thing where if a friend dropped a plate food I'd give the old "nice one, genius" or something else like that. Of course, I get as good as I give.

I've been working on it because I know it doesn't look respectful to those who don't know us. I don't want my friends to look badly to others.
