What Your Momma Use To Say: Mamma Used To Say "You Smelling Yourself"
What Your Momma Use To Say: Mamma Used To Say "You Smelling Yourself": Okay.... I didn't like the first time I heard my Grandmother tell me I was smelling myself... I was thinking " Where did that come from ?"...
Mamma Used To Say "You Smelling Yourself"
Okay.... I didn't like the first time I heard my Grandmother tell me I was smelling myself... I was thinking "Where did that come from?" She's definitely out of control, and way too old to understand what's she's talking about. She continued to explain of course, by stating that "I had sex, and was starting to smell myself.... walking all crazy, and talking like I think I know something.." I did just commit the act... of course, thinking she couldn't possibly have any idea that I did... I mean I was 17 now, and dramatically sharper, wiser, smarter, and more aware of what life was about! NOT! Notice I'm using the GREEN to emphasize the GREEN behind the ears, speaker!!! While, using the PURPLE to express and emphasize the wisdom, and maturity in my Grandmother's voice, and actions.
The saying "Smelling yourself" definitely suggested I was starting to think I knew more than my grandmother, and believing that I was an adult. Which of course was impossible, considering I didn't have any responsibilities other than attending high school, and actually passing my classes. Therefore completely defining myself as a CHILD desiring the ADULT title....Also thought you might find this video HILARIOUS....
I would like to know how many of you have every heard this saying or been told this before???? Respond, and tell me when you were "Smelling yourself"

Your Momma Use To Say "What?"
My grandmother raised me for the majority of my life, but I do have some very useful sayings that have held true from my mother to this day. I want to share them with the world, and hopefully gain some useful sayings that I can pass on to my babies today. My 3 children are 10, 13, and 18 years old, yet I long for them to remember me by quoting some of the things I use to say to help keep them on track or get them back on track, and ultimately change their decision to better choices or better focus in life. I'm a young mother, only 38, yes very young, and I'm looking and seeking advice from all of my cyber readers out there! Especially those of you who can relate to having a strong desire to be remembered by your children as someone who impacted their lives with great memories, and PROFOUND sayings!!! I'm certain many of you have this longing in your heart as a mother, and maybe even as a father. I feel like my hubby won't have any problems in this area, considering he's always voicing his opinions and thoughts; therefore, I feel like the kids will have a lot of useful sayings from my hubby! I want my own, so I'm really seeking some help from you out there in cyber space! Leave me some comments of what your Momma Use To Say that changed your life today!
One of the most useful things my mother would tell me was "Don't eat after anyone because you never know where their mouth has been!" As simple sounding as it has been, my immune system can attest to it to this day. I'm hardly ever sick to this day, and I never eat after people at 38 years old. That saying sticks to me like a water on a dry mouth in the middle of the Sahara Desert. I'm sure you have some more profound statements from your mother or father that you can add to my blog, and I'd love to hear them. I'm eagerly waiting to hear some great advice.
This will be my theme video! Enjoy!!!!!
