Just need to vent a little here after trying to be nice its ended up annoying me terrible!
So fellow livery at the yard has a soft approach to her thugish Welsh x, thats fine her call.
She left him out all summer with little contact and now wonders why he doesnt like being in.
Added to this, she always kept him in outside stables, but now he has no company and "creates" (only when she is around but i wouldnt like my horse outside on its own either)
So being nice i offered she could try my spare stable for a night as my youngster is away for winter- although as we have no indoor tie space its been my tie up area too as well as storage for rugs.
And at the end of the month there is another box coming free in the barn she could then have.
Cue long discussion how he wont like it, blah blah blah, but that perhaps she would try.
Bed was banked up straw and i said just use that and see what he does.
No set date as she wanted to wait till it was "cold and he wants to come in"
This was Friday night, Saturday i go out for a lesson, come back to find stable has been emptied bedding thrown away and her bedding moved in!
Called her and she wants him to get used to the stable and his smell in there before he's in overnight (god forbid if she went to a stay away show!), Ok not happy bunny and why not just tell me the night before, but fine get on with it (chants in head, just be nice just be nice) Told her i was busy all weekend but i would order new storage boxes this week and couldn't sort the rugs till this weekend- says not a problem.
This morning she tell me he will be in from Weds and I need to move my rugs!
Like i have the time to just drop everything and sort and the storage units/trunks aren't here till Friday!
That I only have had to buy as I'm trying to be nice!
Plus some of us work 12 hour days plus travel!!
Don't actually have a solution for where to put/store 50 rugs?! Any magic free ideas??
I already have have rug rack in my stable and if i put anymore on it my poor mare wont fit in the stable!
Tis true that no good deed goes un-punished!
Almost want to take back the offer now!!!
