The family asked me to look after their three dogs, 2 daily walks, feeding etc, keep my sisters part time job looking after a few horses safe while she was away, np, I love my family, I love dogs & horses, outdoors work why not.

It was when I was living on the South coast, loving life in my motorhome, it meant cutting my summer short but family first and all that. They were going to Canada for 3 weeks in September iirc.

About 2 weeks before they were due to leave, the bastard control freak phones me, tells me I can't park my motorhome (aka home, mobile office, all my important stuff) on his drive, I will have to park it at his friends place over a mile away. I had no idea who or where this was so I said it wasn't what we agreed and wasn't happening. He told me I had to, it's been arranged, no reason given, I said NO, he cut the call off.

I was fuming, what do I do, let all the people I love down? I thought he would call me back, nothing, I later found out he was frantically trying to get a replacement dog sitter but to no avail. I lost sleep over this control freak crap, do I tell him to shove it or do I put the rest of my family first & keep quiet. I kept quiet.

Why am I BEYOND angry, why did I decide the next time he does something to piss me off I would offload 3 decades of crap on him? because my entire family did nothing, no apologies (not that would have made a difference)

30 plus years I've kept quiet for the love of my family, how long did you expect me to keep watching him treat us all like crap?
