My Mom!(No Pun intended with picture, this was here at the boys party, she dressed up as a witch)
So recently I have realized how much I am turning into my mom. Not that this is a bad thing. I just remember growing up hearing her say things and thinking in my teenage frustration, "I will never say that when I grow up". Well this blog is to prove that I am eating my words or I guess there just coming back out I just don't know but I catch myself saying these things all the time. So here is my top ten of things my mom said growing up that I know find myself repeating.
- Do you think you can hear that, it is like we live in a theater.
- Are those your clothes on the floor? (When we obviously know they are the clothes of who ever we are talking too.)
- This one is not so much something she said, but we are crazy if the towels do not get folded a certain way.
- Sometimes I think I am talking just to hear myself.
- The Look- This has been passed down from generation to generation. My mom knows what I am talking about.
- I just cleaned the kitchen..how hard can it be to rinse off your dishes and put them in the strainer. PLEASE!
- I just folded those clothes, please put them away before they get all wrinkled and crumpled up on the floor.
- I just vacuumed in here and you can't even tell. (Usually because there are crumbs all over the floor)
- Why is it no one wants to talk to me or needs anything until I am on the phone.
- If you can't say anything nice, just don't say anything at all.
This one I have not actually said before, hence it not being on the top ten but I have to admit I have felt like saying it and probably will in my life time.
When my mom would be frustrated with us, she might go outside or decide to go to the store.. (Breaks are always a good thing!) Anyways usually as she was headed out the door Sara our I would say "Mom, where are you going?" and she would reply "CRAZY"! I always thought that was funny even when she did not.
Sorry mom hope you don't mind me sharing some of I guess now our famous quotes. I am sure every house has them.
Happy Friday Everyone!

3. Do as I say, not as I do.
4. Knock it off or I will break off your arm and beat you with the bloody stub
5. You are as good as the best and better than the rest.
6. There is water ALL OVER THE FLOOR (interpret 2 drops of water)
7. Let's go rim around
8. It's clear as a bell and cold as hell.
Do all moms go to like the same school to learn those quotes?? Because my mom said the same things!!
