So... I was sitting in the barn today... more specifically in the tack room on top of a very comfy bale of hay (2nd off the ground), reading my book (fiction).
In walks someone I hadn't met before from the door to the parking area... we say hi, exchange names... then he says "Hey, that looks like a great spot for doing homework!" and I say.. "Oh it's just a book. Thankfully I'm a long time out of school." (Not adequate to explain I'm too old for homework, LOL).. and he walks out the other door into the barn.
I shrug and go back to my book.... and the outside door to the parking area opens again and in comes a lady... the fellers wife.. and we say hi and exchange names and horse colors, LOL... and then she says "Doing some homework?" and I kind of guffawed and then said "No, no... its a book!" and she said "Oh... Literature! Good for you!" and walks out the door into the barn
Really? Don't get me wrong, I'm not insulted, will likely take such incidents as a compliment someday soon
. I'm just a little flumoxed. I told my mother about it when I came home, and she said exactly what I'm thinking... "How old did you look to them?"
So... as much as I hate to post my picture online... I have just got to know... How old do my BYC friends think I look?
This photo was taken 10 days ago... similar outfit as today.. just without the squinting from the sun, or the smiling part
