Wisdom of an old Lady

I promised you more Irisism's will here are some more gleaned from many years of experience and thought.

1. Used when someone does not agree with you. "I don't know why you are talking that way but You just have to get that out of your mind!"

2. To explain why you sleep all day every day and do nothing. "Sometimes I just have to take an entire day and sleep to catch up on my strength and not be tired."

3. How to pay off your house loan early. "Why don't you just go borrow some money and pay off the house early and then you won't have to worry about it any more?"

4. Friends come over to visit also causes the following. " What do I do? Do I stay in my bedroom, will that be okay? Or do I come out or do I eat in my bedroom or am I allowed at the table?"

5. From a person who takes many many medications for depression and is either majorly high or majorly low and yet is convinced nobody knows because she hides it so well. "How do Nathan and Gina know I have depression problems I didn't tell them!"

6.After having a wheel chair ramp installed. " Did you notice my freeway?"

7. As Carlene walks up to the van with library books in a bag for Iris to read. " oh those look like really good books! I am sure I am gonig to enjoy those. Thanks for picking really good ones!" Realize they are still in the bag and Carlene is still holding them and walking to the van!

8. Last one for today. Carlene asks, What do you want to eat for dinner for the next couple of weeks? Answer, " pudding, yogurt, cookies, candy, crackers, pop, popcorn, apples, melons and oranges. Oh and some coconut cream pie!" OH that we all could eat like that!!!
