MOM USED TO SAY;

“March is a crazy month, only crazy people are born in March.” She had two daughters, and at least one grandchild who was born in March. None of them showed any signs of mental nervousness.

MOM USED TO SAY;
“The way you make your bed is the way you will sleep in it!”
To this day I don’t really understand that. If I sleep in a messy bed I will have a messy dream, or a perfectly neat bed guarantees I will have neat dreams or sleep without moving?

MOM USED TO SAY;
“If it was a snake it would have bitten you!”
I think this meant that the damned thing is right under my nose and I can’t find it like a moron! Here it is!

MOM USED TO SAY;
“Wait, wait ‘till YOU have kids, then we’ll see.”
This, of course, meant that I didn’t agree with the idea that I had to be home by 11:00 PM.

MOM USED TO SAY;
“What am I made of money? A whole pound of butter on your piece of toast!?”
Not necessary to explain.

MOM USED TO SAY;
“What am I related to the electric company?”
The lights would go out suddenly when she said that.

MOM USED TO SAY;
“If I want a roll of toilet paper, you can come rolling in!”
Usually, I was adding my two-cents into her opinions.

MOM USED TO SAY;
“You make me BUST!!!”
This meant that I was out of range of her wooden spoon and she was getting a little annoyed.

MOM USED TO SAY;
“I’ve had it UP TO HERE!”
She usually placed her hand palm down under her chin at my perceived transgressions. I always felt they were progressions.
