Remember any of these?:

#1 Postby angelwing » Thu Sep 13, 2007 6:42 pm

Remember any of these?

Be sure and refill the ice trays, we are going to have
company after while.

Watch for the postman, I want to get this letter in the mail today.

Quit slamming that screen door!

Be sure to pull the windows down when you leave, it looks like it
might
shower, and bring in the clothes on the line too.

Don't forget to wind the clock before you go to bed.

Wash your feet before you go to bed, they are nasty from playing bare
footed outside all day.

Why can't you remember to roll up your pant legs? Getting them caught
in
the bicycle chain so many times is tearing them up.

You have torn the knees out of that pair of pants so many times there
is
nothing left to put a patch on.

Don't you go outside with your good school clothes on!

Hang up your Sunday School clothes, you know you need to pass them
down
to your brother in good condition.

Go comb your hair, it looks like the rats have nested in it all
night.

Be sure and pour the cream off the top of the milk when you open the
new
bottle. I need it for baking and Pa's coffee.

Take that empty bottle to the store with you so you won't have to pay
a
deposit on another one.

Put a dish towel over the cake so the flies won't get on it.

Quit jumping on the floor! I have a cake in the oven and you are
going
to make it fall if you don't quit!

Let me know when the Fuller Brush man comes by, I need to get a few
things from him.

You boys stay close by, the car may not start and I will need you
to
help push it off.

There is a dollar in my purse, go by the Service Station and get five
gallons of gas when you start to town.

Open the back door and see if we can get a breeze through here, it is
getting hot.

You can walk to the store, it won't hurt you to get some exercise.

Maybe you will learn to be more careful with your bicycle.

Don't sit to close to the TV it is hard on your eyes.

If you pull that stunt again I am going to wear you out!

Don't lose that button, I will sew it back on after while.

Wash under your neck before you come to the table, you have beads of
dirt and sweat all under there.

Get out from under tha t sewing machine, pumping it messes up the
thread!

Do you want to go get me a switch?

Be sure and fill the lamps this morning so we don't have to do
that
tonight in the dark.

Here, take this old magazine to the out house (toilet) when you go,
we
are almost out of paper out there.

Go out to the well and draw a bucket of water for me to wash dishes
in.

Don't turn the radio on now, I want the battery to be up when the
Grand
Ole Opry comes on.

No! I don't have five cents for you to go to the show, do you think
money grows on trees? (and you watch them all day too.)

Eat those vegetables, they will make you big and strong like your
daddy.

That dog is NOT coming in this house! I don't care how cold it is out
there, dogs just don't come in the house.

Sit still! I am trying to get your hair cut straight and you
keep
moving and it is getting botched up.

Hush your mouth! I don't want to hear words like that, I wil l wash
your
mouth out with soap again!

It is time for your system to be cleaned out, I'm going to give
you a
dose of Castor Oil in the morning.

If you get a spanking in school and I find out about it, you will get
another one when you get home.

Quit crossing your eyes! They will get stuck that way!

Soak your foot in this pan of Coal Oil so that cut won't get
infected.

When you take your driving test don't forget your hand signals each
turn. Left arm straight out the window for a left turn, and left arm
bent up
to the sky at the elbow for a right turn and straight down to the
side of the
door when you are going to stop .

It is Yes sir! And No sir! To me and your elders young man, and don't
you forget it!

While we are at Aunt Mary's and Uncle John's you kids eat when the
adults get though and I don't want to hear "I don't like this
stuff". You
better keep you mouth shut and eat everything on your plate.

Well, that ought to keep us remembering some of the finer things of
the
past, some good and some not so good, and young man if I hear you
repeat
one word of this I will beat the day lights out of you, do you
understand that?!!

LOL, I remember about 75% of those sayings verbatim! :D

Well, except for the 5 gallons of gas for $1. When I was a young one, a dollar would only buy you about 2 gallons. ;)

Lots of good ole memories in there.....some before my time (bringing in water from the well, LOL) but most I remember.

My mom used to say - eat your peas and/or dinner, they are starving kids in China!
