Sounds fair to me. I'm over 300 posts behind, and I'll probably have to delete most of them unread, so I haven't been keeping a tally of who's perpetuating the feud the most. But I get the impression that you're trying harder to end it than Judy is. Byron Katie says there are three kinds of business: my business, your business, and God's business. If you look at it that way, I think you can see everything Judy says and thinks as her business, including stuff she says and thinks about you. You have no control over it. It is what it is. It needn't bother you as long as you don't get involved in it. If both of you were to do this, there would be no feud. If either of you to do this completely, there would be no feud. Only when one of you allows yourself to get even a little bit involved in the other's business is fuel added to the fire. I don't mean to sound preachy. I hope this is useful advice.
