Things Mom Would Never Say

Those are hilarious...I know these are definitely 'tongue in cheek', but the "Just leave the lights" on made me especially laugh....that WAS our Mom before she(or anyone of us) heard of 'carbon footprints', obviously!
Something Mom WOULD say...and I should have paid much more heed to was "Get that togue on"! "You'll have sinus problems when you grow-up if you don't"! Her words still cut the air, as my Elvis 'do' instantly (and solidly) froze into place before I managed to descend the third step into Alberta's -20F winter evening...wind chill...huh -35F? At the ripened age of 57 I suffer from acute sinus problems...so sorry I didn't listen Mom.
I can still see the Elvis "do".
