One day late? meh.

So I had this grand idea that I was going to post daily on my blog for the month of June. It’s June 2nd you say? Oh well.

So I thought I’d start the month out appropriately. I thought I would share with you some of the famous quotes I grew up hearing from my mother.

1. If her lips are moving, she’s lying. (just heard that one today)

2. Go over to your own damn side and leave me alone. (loving, I know)

3. You can’t get blood out of a turnip, but you can sure kick a turnip’s ass. (it gets better, I PROMISE)

4. Do as I say, not as I do. (She usually tells me this as she’s going 100 mph down the road to impress the grandkids)

And the final one…. *drum roll please*

5. Believe none of what you hear, and only half of what you see.

Yes, folks, I am prepared for life!

 

Question of the day… what was a favorite saying of one of your parents?

Some how I feel as though I have been misquoted.

Sara said...

Um, no you haven't. I specifically asked you for detailed comments this afternoon. ;)

two of my favorites:

"Your ass is grass and I'M THE LAWN MOWER!"

and, "If this room isn't clean in 30 minutes some heads are gonna roll!"

I was wondering what the recent blogging was...I haven't checked any in a week or two and here you've got a ton of posts.

My favorite teacher quote is, "let me tell you a couple three things."

And parent quote? I don't remember but I know it came out of my mouth on the way home from church yesterday and Tymon called me on it. I'll probably remember it tonight...

Another favorite teacher quote: (photography class referring to negatives and print making) You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.

Like, thanks a lot Mr. Charvet, glad you like the shots I spent all afternoon taking.
