In the winter it's usually "slicker than snot"

"I'll hit you so hard, your whole family will fall down!"
My grandpa used to say, "Eat! Eat every darn all!"
My mom used to say "cum see cum saw" for kind of yes, kind of no.

When I did my training as a registered nurse, there was this "old" Zone-matron.
Sometimes we admiited old people whom you could clearly see was not properly taken care of.
And when this Matron did her rounds, she would always say:
"One mother can look after 10 children ... but 10 children can not look after one mother."

Oh dear..
a friend of the family used to always say,(whenever we whined for something) "Put your wishes in one hand and S*** in the other and see which one fills up first". Not really sure what that supposed to teach us.... It cracks me up now! I will sometimes say it to my kids now. They are 23 and 27 years old though and have heard those words before..

Sorry if I offended anyone!

You can get happy as easy as you got mad.

"Nervous as a sore-tailed cat, in a room full of Rocking chairs..

"a mind is a terrible thing to waste"

And my personal fav. " Press on regardless and don't look back, They may be gaining on you.

When something would go wrong my dad would say " dont cry over spilled milk, what is done is done" and how right he was..:)

Oh, just thought of another one:

Good enough for a mother in law's eye.

Hello Polly... I also know what a slop bucket was..... two different kinds by the way... and I'm sure you know them both!!!

Daddy would use this quote but add....."now pick up the bucket...". His way of saying..... "Just Don't Quit!!!" Lord, how I miss him and Mama...
