And not the pretty kind you set off on purpose.
After working with BudgieWudge (whose papered name I find out is Cumbia, but I still plan to show her as Not Gonna Budge as it fits her beautifully lol) with my friend Elaine, we went to the wi-not and picked up some food and headed to the other barn to wait for Aleasha to come out and ride. I was stoked, it feels like ages since I've gotten to hang out what with my psychotic busy schedule.
Al comes down to the barn to get the trash to take to the curb, we talk, and then as the minutes pass by I say "You should probably take the trash down before they get pissy about it not getting done, then come back and we can chill." So he does. Well, apparently a can infront of the woodshop got missed, because about an hour later his stepmother storms down to the barn screaming at him about how it needs to get done and he needs to (explative delted) listen and if he can't (explative deleted) listen he needs to get his (multiple explatives deleted) ears checked. So he goes to take care of it and I stupidly say "I'm sorry I thought he'd taken it all down or I wouldn't have been letting him sit here chatting"
WRONG MOVE
She begins to unload both barrels on me, reloads and repeats then switches to a fully automatic about how I need to stop (blanking) up his life etc etc. and how they just got him to get his life back on track.
I'm sorry...uhm...Wow. I didn't realize that encouraging to stay with his job where he just got his top secret clearance and a $5/hour raise was a bad thing. Or talking him out of blowing money on stupid things and reminding him that just because he has it now doesn't mean he won't need it for something else later and especially since he plans to buy a house he should set aside as much into savings as possible was a BAD thing....Or that only wanting to see him happy and wanting to be a part of what makes him happy was quote f'ing up his head end quote.
Seriously. Yes, there's a few years difference with me in the lead but he's a legal adult. I'm not taking him out drinking (actually refuse to let him have alcohol til April when he turns 21), we aren't running around all night getting into trouble and he's making it to work on time every day and when they need him to do something I tell him its cool we'll spend time together when you're done or another day. I can understand they're worried seeing as I'm a ready made family, but I'm not asking him to take care of me and my kids, he hasn't even MET my kids yet. And as far as them being worried he's going to knock me up, we hardly see eachother for more than five minutes at a time and that's the last thing on our minds!!!
Now when I was hauling horses and working them for her, she had noooo problem with me. Loved the hell out of me. But now that I'm dating her step son I'm a psycho b*tch.
So now poor Al is worried that she's gonna run me off, which isn't going to happen. He makes me happy, we're good together, and as long as I make him happy its going to take more than a pissy stepmom to run me off.
I can understand her blasting off on me, it hurt and was out of no where but that's fine. What really irks me about last night is after she was done screaming at me she stomped off when after I asked repeatedly what I was doing that was so wrong and she couldn't come up with an answer...she stomped off and kicked a horse because he gave my friend a hard time catching him. I don't CARE how mad you are at me, unload on me but do NOT direct any of that towards a horse and there was NO CAUSE to KICK HIM!!!
UGH!!!
Working with horses is time intensive with much of the work being done without a lot of help. Check out
