You should have started preaching to her about it.

But seriously, I didn't know jahovas witness didn't celebrate Christmas. Its a bit of an over reaction to take offence, with such a common statement. Surely, regardless of her believes she has enough intellect to realise that you were only being polite.

When I first started working for royal mail I was delivering a load of cards to a guys house, he came to the door and I said "oh arn't you the popular one today, is it your birthday?" "No" he said "my wife's just died". Christ I just wanted the ground to open up and swallow me whole.

Wedding anniversaries are all they celebrate that I know of, my folks moved halfway across the US to be closer to my sister and her family (just a few blocks away in the same town) then sis and her family join the j-ws, Puts a damper on things when you want to celebrate holidays with your grand kids, and they all leave town during those times.
