My dad always said to me ,"leave that chapter out of your book." I guess I asked to many questions. :?:

When I would be hurt or angry at what someone did to me she would tell me not to retaliate but to, "Give the devil enough rope and he'll hang himself."

My brother had a saying when he saw someone

Been reading again and thought of two of my Dad's favorites: "A penny saved is a penny earned" and one that is so not typical of him, "that makes my butt smile".

So stupid he could'nt pour Pee(being nice) out of a boot if he had to turn it upside down to read the directions on the heel. Children are suppose to be seen and not heard. She's having a hissy fit. |
