Couth
So, I was not going to tell this, but it is eating me alive. My brother is retired out of the military. He asked last weekend if he could bring his girlfriend to stay for the night. Of course, I said it was fine. They got to my home around three in the afternoon and we grilled and visited while my hubby cooked. They had probably been there about two hours and she started telling about someone that had been to her father's business and wanted to buy some of his offerings. The person wanted things a little different from what her father had built.(wood work). They agreed to pay an astronomical price for what they wanted. Then she said, "They were gay as the day is long." So, Jimmy(my hubby) looked at me as it to say "don't slap the shit out of her". I just looked at her and said, "What do you mean? What is "gay as the day is long?" She looked at me like I was an idiot and said. "You know. They are fags." Needless to say, my hubby signaled my brother to shut her mouth and then told me to come inside. I was livid. He said "Let it go. Kyle is out there. (grandson). I just looked at him but agreed. Two seconds later, Kyle came through the door and said, "Nana, did you hear what she said. She is wrong to talk about people isn't she?" I have to tell you. I hugged that little eight year old so tight. I did not say anything to the idiot outside because the one that matters understood. I have never been so glad that I held my temper. I am so proud of my daughter for instilling the right things in my grandson and love my grandson for being himself, as he was taught to be.
