I would say when going to work "another day, another dollar so they say".
You can lead a horse to water, but you can't teach a dog old tricks.
I would always tell my children when they came in dirty from outside - well you are washable you know.
Another line I would catch myself saying due to the fact that all of our childrens names started with A's, well you know which one you are when I would say one name and actually meant one of the other ones.
