Watch you language when you're around your grandkids, ladies LOL!!!! We all use abbreviations: DH, SIL, QAYG, FART, etc., and my family knows most of them, esp FART. I walked into Starbucks and heard a voice from across the room "hey grandma, how was your FART yesterday?" It was my DGS. His 3 friends, 3 customers, and 2 counterpersons just all stood there with their mouths hanging open!! I was beet red but explained to all what a FART was and everyone thought it was really funny. (I think I'm still blushing as I type this.) They were all good sports and DGS's friends were coming up with their own acronyms. The best one was CART--chick acquisition road trip; they were headed to the mall after class to check out chicks. So never think your families aren't listening when you talk; and they'll remind you of what you said at the most embarrassing time. I'm still laughing!
