A few months ago, I let my supervisor know that I was going to Best Buy on lunch, and I may be a little longer then usual, which was no big deal. We can take long lunches if we wish, I just like to let it be known I'll be gone for a bit. I was going to buy the Fleetwood Mac remaster CD's. She, just being nosey, which really was no big deal to me, asked what I was buying. Me, knowing they think I'm slightly off with my FM obsession, told her she probably didn't want to know, just to avoid the hassle of hearing "don't you have enough of their stuff...." She blurted out, rather sarcastically, "Boy, I wish I had your money." I have never shared anything to her or anyone else what my late husband left me. That is NONE of their business. Anyhow, I've heard that comment more then once from her. I let it roll off my back. But really... c'mon, that is about the rudest thing a person could say to a widow.

That's horrible! It's pitiful. In this case you might want to choose the aforementioned option b. You've got a case of raging jealousy going on there against you.
