You can only feel one feeling at a time. You can't feel trust and fear together. You have to listen to what you feel.

Don't make love to your problems- they'll never give back the satisfaction you give them.

Troubles aren't worth the paper they're written on, but that does't mean writting them down won't help you get a fix on them.

You're not happy. Fine. Act happy and see if the right feeling catches up.

If you don't have anything nice to say.....(come sit next to me) then don't say anything.

You catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.

Always brush your hair before you go to bed. You might not look like Medusa in the morning.

You know how much I like to talk to my friends. If I haven't anything nice to say, then I have nothing to say at all. (this was being said when she caught me doing something I wasn't supposed to be doing.) Always made me think twice after that.

(From my mother)

Pretty is as pretty does...

Lady born, Lady bred, dresses her feet, and then her head...

Birds of a feather flock together...

Dad's cousin told my sister and I that their grandmother used to do/say this:
"Here's a nickle. Run down to the store and get me a plug of chewin' tobacco. Tell `em the tomaters got cutworms." :lol:

I used to whistle,....Mom didn't like me whistling

She would say...'' Whistling girls and crowing Hens always come out to very bad ends''

It never made sense to me and she refused to explain.

In retrospect I think She thought only boys should whistle , so if I was whistling maybe she thought I was being ''boyish'' .....therefore...I would not grow up the ''right way ''.

It was a good thing she didn't know I was climbing trees... ! !

By the way....I did grow up the way my Beloved MOM thought was the right way.

..Money doesn't grow on trees.

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

Don't count your chickens before they hatch.

Don't put all your eggs in one basket.

You now have got my hunny's brain and mine working at this now....LOL
