My Mom was the one who had lots of sayings..
she would say: you're just as happy as if you had good sense *L*
also when she made a mistake she'd say: sh!t & one make seven
no offence to the dutch but she would say: what's the sense of being dumb if you aren't dutch?
Or she'd tell us: we had constipation of the brain and diahrea of the mouth
or if we'd forget something: what you don't have in your head you have to have in your feet..
on a cold night: its cold enough to freeze the balls on a brass monkey
