The saying I remember and use often is”if something is worth doing, don’t half ass it.
don't take on a vast project with half vast ideas"
Stop crying or I will give you something to cry about.

When someone would say "See you later" my dad would say "You'll have to. Can't see me any sooner.
My mom Would say " Just wait till your dad gets home".
I hope when you grow up you have a kid just like you.
She later apologized too my wife.
And he has a daughter that my mother didn't include.
My mom always said “l hope you know what you’re doing”.

My mom was always telling us kids to 'go outside and blow the stink off of you'.
“You want me to tell your Dad?”
One of my good fishing buddies would always say “I hope I see you on the water. Otherwise I’ll hit ya”😂
Just wait until your dad gets home

Seems to be one of the most common statements made - if
I heard that one once, then I've
heard it a million times ! (What
can I say ? I was constantly in
hot water !)
I worked a mill job in my early
twenties with a couple of middle-
aged ladies - one day, they were discussing their kids, nephews
and nieces when they turned to
me and asked me what I was like
at that age so I told them -
"Me ? I was the kind of kid my
parents didn't want me hanging around with !"
And that's the truth !
Mom was always saying I hope you have a kid just let you and dad would always say you job wait till your mom gets here
My mother would always tell me that my dad ruled the roost but she ruled the rooster. She was right too. Momma was the one we had to worry about. If we got out of hand with her then dad would step in. He was like a pull start on a lawn mower with that belt.
My Mom always said,
"No one is ever going to be too rich or too poor to not have a clean house and good manners"
She also paraphrased Mark Twain's quip.....
"Just always tell the truth, that way, you don't have to remember what you said or who you told it to.... it'll be the same story".
And, of course......"Well, sorry it's not your favorite, but, that's what we're having for dinner, besides, it's good for you.... now eat."
Birds of a feather flock together......me and my buddies always rasin cane
