Oh my! She must have had the same play book my grandma had - but her line was "You'll make the Blessed Mother cry". She had a picture on teh wall, and I'd turn to look to see. Dang I'd forgotten that memory! (shudder)

We lived 1 mile from Purdue. The guy who started the company DH was working for at the time also taught at Purdue. Then sold the company for big bucks and retired somewhere warm.
He's usually a good kid. He has a bit of cold and is off his game right now.
OMG...priceless....how old??
OMG..wish i had a gma like that!!! would have helped me be a better mom!!!
Well, the only time I remember my Grandma slapping me was when I retorted that even God had to sleep sometime. She smacked me pretty lightly and I had to press another button since I'd found hers with "Remember, Grandma, God is watching!"
I never did like the concept of picking out your own switch. I really didn't like it that day.
wow... all I remember grandma doing was sitting in her chair cuddling with me while she smelled my hair. She was a sweet old lady who passed after my grandfather did. She died of a broken heart. I don't think she saw anything bad in any of her grandchildren, we were just that children. She's a special lady.
Other grandma- alive and kickin' plays spades like nobody's business, and can make a killer ham at christmas time!!

...u lil brat!!!Heh, well, the one I was talking about was my maternal grandma. She couldn't cook to save her life and once she found out you liked something, you were eating every single time she made something. I still haven't had a rice krispie treat since high school because I was SO burnt out on them. But, boy, you knew she loved you. Sad to think how much I took what she gave for advantage. I'd kill for one of her back scratches right now.
My paternal grandma was entirely different. She was pretty old by the time I was born (74) and had great grandkids older than me. Plus, she had a lot of pretty, shiny, breakable objects in her apartment. I swear, all I remember of her until I was a teenager was "Don't touch it! You'll break it!" Once I hit my teenage years though, she was completely different. She loved writing letters and I got into the habit of writing her back. Never did get as attached to her as my Grandma Browneyes but she was a good lady too.
Both of them had very, very rough lives and it was amazing how differently they adapted to what life tossed their way.
yes it is cool.. i am hopin she can do something for my sons freshly painted room!!!
Heh, could also mean if you sponge painted, regular roll, etc.
Lots of ways to paint a room. I've seen some pretty cool denim looks.
yeah color and technique.
my little girls room is a baby pink called innocence- yes I'm hoping it reflects on her behavior as she ages- but we did one wall a checkerbaord about 1 foot squares of pink and purple. turned out really neat!!
Oh cool.......we just did the long walls a lime florescent green, and the short end walls a bright turquoise blue. i use those edger pads to go around the walls.. and then roll it out w/ a roller... he wanted stripes but i wasnt up for it.. i got some chalk board paint today.. gonna make a frame outta trim, and paint a big area.. so him and his friends can play on it...
omg really?!?! I'll have to check that out!!!!!!!!! woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
