Power out

[rivermom]

It has been sooo cold. Personally I don't like it one bit. Each morning early I'm out hammering the horse water trough to break up the ice so he can drink. I keep telling him "Bay, don't put your lips to this ice or your lips will stick".

Each stroke of that hammer I'm cursing - sure the neighbors laugh when they drive by. There's no electricity where the water & trough is at so I can't use a warmer.

Speaking of Bay....This ummm man (will be nice and wont call him names right now) who has the horses who was going to put in Bay's stall yadda yadda....Well he changed his mind. So hubby and I spent money and time working on the other pasture for nothing. So Bay isn't coming home right now after all. &**#$@ *^&!!_* **%$#@ !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I give up!!! I give up on trying to stay warm and I give up on stupid people!!

Anyway, done venting now.

That really sucks Sheryl! Not only the hammering of ice, but the wacho man changing his mind. You should tell him he told you one thing and then you spent money, see if he'll reimburse you. Some people next time he comes over...make him some ice tea with water from the trough...LOL I know, I know, I'm being a stinker again.

Oh now that is priceless!!!!!!!!!! You don't know how bad I want to do that.

Actually I don't even speak to this person. He's the one who recently divorced my gf. Well, he won 3 of the 8 horses in the divorce. and now says "changed my mind, getting rid of them".

It's all just an awkward situation that goes beyond bizarre.
I don't care really about the money, it's the fact that Bay wont be here. This guy who's getting rid of the horses works for the man who owns all the land out here. He's the one telling me when Bay stays or Bay goes. Nuts!
