Things that nobody but your Mom can tell you -- Today's Funny!

This is a funny video, and I hope you enjoy it!

As y'all know, my Mama passed away in March. Since then, it's almost as if I actually miss having someone criticize me all the time. I mean, I get dressed and I wait to hear someone say, "You're not going to wear THAT are you?" or "Your hair, it's so GRAY."

My own personal favorite, as Matthew will attest to, is: "Go put your sweater on, I'm cold." and lately, "Can't we take you to get your hair trimmed? Not cut, just shaped up..."

I hope you enjoy these-- I think they are hilarious!

Thanks for coming by!

Note: I also say--

"I love you!"

"You're the best thing that ever happened to me!"

"How did I get such a smart kid?"

"Come give your old mother a hug-- I need you!"

"Gosh! You're handsome!"

So maybe, I'm not as bad as I think I am... Grin.gif

"I know you like I know the back of my hand."

"What time is it? We'll see what your daddy has to say about it."

"What did you say?"

"Go outside and get me a switch."

Well, we'll see about that."

"I love you more than anything else in this world."

Well maybe not the last one, but it sounded good.

Kudos to Petey C. for the B.B. King video. Have all his tunes, and his concerts are some of the best I've ever been to.

I bet that is just what your mom thinks, though-- loving you more than anything else in this world... Smile.gif

Most of these are just "I love you" disguised as Helpful Advice!

Oh dear, do I ever understand. When I married my first husband, my mother was so disapproving, she didn't stand up as I came down the aisle. Of course, no one else did, either. Speaking of public humiliation...

I, too, was a constant disappointment, and can trace it back to when I was 14 and changed the part in my hair. It was my first real independent thought, and Mama absolutely hated it. Up until the very day she died, she hated my hair. Smile.gif

Most of these are very innocuous. Annoying, but not hurtful! Grin.gif

I thought these were hilarious! And yes, I got some new fodder to inflict on Matthew... Ha!

Take care, dear don-- I hope that everyone gets the message-- most of these are "I love you" disguised as "just trying to help"!

You're right. My mother loved me more than anything and I loved her more than anything. She made sure we were all well cared for and she made sure we all behaved in a civil manner. Actually, it was my daddy who said "He knew me like the back of his hand" and now I understand what he meant as I can see a little of each of them in me.

Ha...don't get me started about my "mother"...nothing good will come of that. Trying to remember anything even half way nice or useful she ever said to me...I got nothing.

One more time and I'll knock you into next week.

You think I'm flapping my jaws just to hear myself talk???

Just wait'll your dad comes home.

You actually claim this is your room???

Just wait'll your dad comes home. (Her most favorite comment).Grin.gif Scared the helloutta me fer shure, fer shure.

I heard a lot of those, too...

One of my mother's favorites was, "Our ancestors are revolving in their grave!"

By now, they have revolved to the point they have become augurs and have managed to cross the Pacific into China...

I think that mom's say that sometimes because they really can't deal with watching the baby girls getting old. There is a great phrase from Bonnie Raitt's song "Nick of time...."

I see my folks are getting on
And I watch their bodies change
I know they see the same in me
And it makes us both feel strange

No matter how you tell yourself
It's what we all go through
Those lines are pretty hard to take
When they're staring back at you

Oh Oh Oh, scared you'll run out of time

Perrie, If I had a nickle for every word you said, we'd be millionaires.

I would think to myself... Oh I see... We'd be millionaires? I'm doing the talking... I think the cash is mine.

I also found out that it was OK for my dad to scream "OH NUTS!" when he hurt himself doing a job around the house, but not OK for Perrie to say it. That also went along with Fubar and Snafu. Followed by Nat! She learned that from you!

"What, you're not eating at home?... My food isn't good enough for you, you fancy lady?"

"Look I know you can have sex at 3 am or 3 pm... I'm not that stupid". BTW, I was 25 when she said that to me.
