mine too..... i almost cried lol kidding
Advice needed.
I can't stand people who deliberately lie about themselves and misrepresent their experiences. Drives me nuts.
Now, let's set the background, My cousin, she is 6 years younger than me, she's 24, almost 25. After she was born, my uncle and his now ex wife lived on the farm for about 18 months, moving to town for a couple months before getting a divorce and then his ex wife got custody of the now 2 yr old and remarried to a professor at a university and moved to SC. My uncle relocated to SC, got a job and such. My cousin has only been back up here about 4 times for a combine total of maybe 2-3 weeks.
Anyway, I get a link sent to me last night by my sister. It's to a newspaper article from a paper in SC, my cousin announced she's running for the city council down there. In the article, she(cousin) brags about having all this experience farming and all the stuff she learned from the hardwork done on the family farm(our grandparent's).
What gets me, she's never so much as lifted a bail of hay, milked a goat, collected eggs, fixed fence, even ridden on a tractor, never lifted a finger on this farm. I have, I spent my entire life busting butt on this farm. It pisses off not only me, but others in this family, that she's claiming to be this farmer chick when she isn't by any stretch of the imagination.
I'm tempted to write a letter to the editor of that paper setting the record straight but that would flame into a giant Hatfields/McCoy situation rapidly.
