My mom worked in the mines with hard core men and she learned to talk the talk and walk the walk’
One of her sayings was “It’s colder than a well diggers ass” and “ Don’t let the door hit you in the butt on the way out” See no evil hear no evil Don’t get bent out of shape Sleep tight don’t let the bugs bite

When my 3 DGD start fussing my DSIL tells them Cowboy up or go sit in the truck!
My DD says I have to pee like a race horse.

Mom:
When the kids finished eating: Magies vol, ogies toe!
(little tummies full, little eyes close)
When cleaning or doing dishes, and everyone helps: Vele hande maak ligte werk!
(Many hands makes for light work.)

(Your mouth is going to get your a$$ whipped.)

my DH favorite is: There is no pills for stupidity.

From my Grandmother: Be good and you'll always be happy.

From my Mother: Never empty handed to the kitchen go. (If there is something that should be taken and put away from one room to another, do it!)

From Me: I only chew my cabbage once. (Listen the first time - I do not repeat myself!!!!!!!!)

From my Husband: Old age hurts!

From our Son: It is what it is! (It's true!)

My husband would play fight with the grands and when they would holler OH OH he would tell them I used to have a hound dog that sounded like that.
