Excuse me while I yawn

you would think I was K is a high maintenance person, this is something that I learned months ago but because I have a very hard telling people no, I can't get away from her. I feel guilty for not helping her (ummmm religious or something) or listening to her but when she goes on and on......and on......and on about the same thing for 30 minutes it makes it a little hard to listen let alone care about what is going on with her. I know it doesn't sound nice but it's hard to listen to someone go on and on about having sick puppies in the house when I'm trying to get my daughter dressed. And yes I've said it to her that I need to go and take care of things in my house
She doesn't get it. She never will. Everything that she does or had is better than it is here. I may have said this before but she doesn't listen. She seems to think that AZ is worse then OR, that people don't know what they are doing here. A couple of good examples

A couple of months ago a transformer box blew up across the street from her house, nothing big, just a big spark didn't even have to call the fire dept. Her response? "I guess they just don't make them like they do in X"

I'm sorry, they weren't made here, some company somewhere made them so it's not like the city of Bisbee made them and put them up.

The weather here changes fast, especially during monsoon season I've learned. Well she checks the weather and it says one thing and then she comes back a couple of hours later and it's changed. "Oh great, they changed the weather on me again, typical."

Um isn't that what weather does? Change?

Those are just two that I can think of off the top of my head but there will always be more, lol.

Ok so K has done it again. She is a big advocate for animals right which is fine but she needs to control it. She already has a pit bull of her own, 2 hairless dogs, and 2 cats. Well of course when you have a male/female cat your bound to get kittens right? right. So now there are 3 cats. Then she got another male kitten that was about 4 weeks old so now there are 4 cats, but wait...it gets better. well the female went in heat again and just had kittens......again!!! So now there are 6 cats in the house along with 2 puppies and a pit bull. Then there is mother, who has a ranch outside of town. She has sheep and dogs (that's where K got the dogs from)and we've been out there quite a few times. Well the herd is pregnant and have been having babies for the past month, since the beginning of December. It's been great for S but....can you tell where I'm going with this? Yes, now she has lambs. The mothers have "abandoned" them so she says. I haven't been there to witness it so I can't say what is going on there. So let's go back to the animal count.
1 Pit Bull
2 Hairless puppies
6 cats
2 lambs
3 fish (yeah sorry about not mentioning that one sooner)

Ok so now that I've given you a little bit of a background let me get to what has happened today. There is a ranch outside of town, I know a lot of ranch's around here, that we've been to this past week. Now I don't know a whole lot about horses, never owned one so what would I know if an animal is underfed? Oh I know maybe because I can see their ribs!!!!!!! Now she's had a horse, that much I know what but what happened with it, I don't know. But here's my thing. We drove by it and she was going on and on about how the horses are just so skinny and the person is doing a horrible job taking care of them and that she couldn't believe that I would go to a place like that. She knew that we had just been there a couple of days ago so why keep going? We walked around the ranch, feed the horses, saw everything that was there.
She didn't hid anything, and was very friendly, the lady at the ranch. She was very nice. There were lost of horses there, about 10, and a bunch of burros to. None of them were really shy, not anymore then I would expect if 3 kids came screaming to the fence, lol. And I told K about this. Told her that none of the animals looked sick, hungry, etc. And she says, well they must have put them away. That pissed me off. I was very tempted to pull the car over, yank her out and make her go look at the horses. Don't tell me what I saw and what is going on. I told her that she really can't judge what other people are doing at their places unless she goes out there. Was I wrong for saying that? I don't think so.

She complains about the neighborhood dog and messes with her 3 dogs, and even gone so far as to jump the fence and mount the female puppy. Don't tell me about it, go say something to the guy (she sees him every morning let the dog out) or call animal control or the cops. Make a complaint. Do something about it but quit complaining to me about it when you don't want to hear what I have to say. It's just dumb.
