My grandma always has a way of brightening things when I’m down. Here’s a few of them….
“If you fail, just try again.”
“Sometimes I think you take yourself a bit too seriously.”
She is prone to singing, “Gray skies gonna clear up, put on a happy face!”
With the tone of a former cheerleader she said, “When the going gets tough, the tough get going.”
“I think it is good to make changes when you are young.”
When being cut off by a car, “You, Jackass!” Later changed to “Jackrabbit,” when my little cousin repeated it.
Also prone to singing, “You have to accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative, and latch on the affirmative; don’t mess with mister in between.”
She usually calls me Joshua, accenting the “J.”
She once danced around at a campground in her bra screaming, “I’m a nerd, I’m a nerd, I’m a nerd.”
Grandma does not “fart” she has “frogs in her basement.” Grandpa tends to think it is a fog horn and not frogs.
If you have any wonderful things your Grama has said, please feel free to leave them in the comments.
