UNAUTHORIZED use of a Cinnamon as a drink holder. Should this be forgiven?

[ebinmaine 67,277]

All right boys and girls. We got ourselves a situation.

I was at work today. Busting my back and earning some clams so I could bring home the bacon.

My female took the day off from work so she could spend the day around the ranch getting some stuff done.

I come cruising into the yard this afternoon and what do I find?

 

Aforementioned female and her mom have borrowed my Horse to pull the log splitter down from another location so they could use it next to the pile of logs in the back "yahd".

 

See the hood of the poor poor Cinnamon Horse??

It has been undignifyingly and reprehensibly reassigned as an adult beverage shelf. 

 

The miserably wretched former stallion...

 

 

 

 

 

 

WHAT SHOULD I DO???

 

Is the Horse going to need counseling?

Does my female deserve reprimand?

Should the log splitting earn time off for positive actions?

I guess I would bring this up with your paint department & see what kind of comments that you get.   My personal paint department would & has come unglued over such a thing though.

You could have asked one of the lady's to twist you a cap.

[wallfish 16,985]

I would put 5 more on there and let'm finish the whole pile! Then go inside, get myself a nice cocktail or three and consider the wood splitting work done

[JAinVA 4,619]

I don't see the issue.Truth be known many an adult beverage has been set on the horse hoods here.The only sin would be if the engine is hot.My missus threw a logging chain onto the hood of my dump truck when we were working a clear cut many years ago.Truck didn't care.

[bc.gold 3,403]

Forgive, unless you want to give up sharing a blanket.

[WHNJ701 4,165]

I'd be stopping at the store for another case and let them have at it for the rest of the weekend, poor hood??? You don't work for the paint dept!!

[Pullstart 62,792]

That last pic, looks like they’ve had their fare share today!  Might either join them or steer clear!

Pat's late husband had a Hayes logging truck, one day in the yard Art asked her to move it forward. She forgot to release the maxies and twisted  a driveshaft into a corkscrew.

Unless you think you need practice with your wax on wax off hand dexterity deflecting kicks and punches from BBT I'd keep your mouth shut.

[bc.gold 3,403]

My wife rest her soul was a blonde, when telling about her screw up stories around a campfire  would claim even her roots were blonde.

[ebinmaine 67,277]

All good advice folks. 

Much appreciated. 

 

@pullstart them empties are from a previous work episode.... Mostly.

You forget, majority rules.

[lynnmor 7,302]

I think that the horse is feeling neglected, pour it a mixed drink with extra ethanol.

I'd never be that mean to an engine. But to me..... Sure!

[JoeM 7,871]

Remember it is "BBT"

What bottle? I don't see any bottles?

[Stormin 9,981]

I'd be more upset about them splitting logs. I enjoy working with wood. Only if I can burn it though.  

[Tuneup 1,433]

Alcoholic or not, the disrespect of the Wheel Horse brand here is automatically forgiven when you consider you have your wife AND MOTHER IN LAW out processing wood. That is a major accomplishment and should be celebrated on occasion with added beverages, alcoholic preferred. Simple.

 

Alternately, if the tractor is all important, cast all blame on the mother in law and discard appropriately.

 

You're a lucky man. Reveal the secret as I can't get my wife anywhere near an axe. 'got wood to cut today, too!

[SylvanLakeWH 25,490]

Business as usual...

 

May want to invest in an appropriate holder to address such needs...

 

Cheers!
