Words of Wisdom -

The last few weeks I’ve participated in “Wordless Wednesdays” which is photos only (or just a few words). I’ve decided to try something new that will combine the photo/a few words/ and nanas.

My nana, Grandma Layne, had tons of “sayings” that she used frequently in conversation. I believe these are called euphemisms (correct me if I am wrong). Some of her quotes are familiar ones that I still hear people say, and others I never hear (I suspect she made them up). I’m guessing your nana had a piece of advice or a quote that you associate with her too.

Send me a picture of your grandmother (if you don’t have one to send that’s okay) along with her quote and I’ll use it on Wednesdays. I will put part of the quote and leave some blanks to see if readers can guess the rest of the words. For example: A watched pot ________. I’m betting everyone knows that one.

To start things off I’m sharing one my grandmother said about pennies. She said it so many times I never see a penny without thinking about her. When I stepped out of my car this morning there was a penny on the ground which gave me the idea for Wednesday Words of Wisdom. Forgive me Wordless Wednesday fans for using so many words today but I had to explain my latest project to you!

Blessings to you and don’t forget to send me your nana’s words of wisdom!
