• Thirteen Things I Say That Make Me Sound Like One of My Moms 1.   "Look at your fingernails!  They're so dirty, you could plant potatoes under them." 2.   "Can someone let the dog in?  Can someone let the dog in?  LET THE DOG IN!!! . . .  (Child's name inserted here), would you please let the dog in.  THANK you! . . . Why doesn't anyone ever listen to me?" 3.   "Welllllll, I really prefer to be called Mrs. (insert my last name), since I'm quite sure I'm old enough to be your mother." 4.    "Alllllllllllll right!  That is Eeeee-nuff!" 5.   Any emphatic order given to my children followed by the phrase, "Do you hear me? . . . What did I just say?" 6.    Long sigh, followed by, "There's no rest for the weary." 7.    "Close the door!  Do you want the flies to get in?" 8.    "What were you thinking?  Oh!  That's right!  You weren't!" 9.    "I'm too pooped to pop."  Or, "I'm so tired my toenails ache." 10.  "Oh well, if we hadn't gotten lost, we would have never had the opportunity to see this street (neighborhood) (city)." 11.  "Why does everyone's stuff always have to go in MY purse?  No wonder my back aches all the time." 12.  "What would you do if I wasn't around?"  Or, "When I'm dead and gone, THEN you'll miss and appreciate me." 13.  "Is your room clean?  It is?  What if I come check?  That's what I thought!"   Links to other Thursday Thirteens! 1.
