Word of Wisdom From My Mother

When I was a little girl, my Mother let a colloquialism slip and my little ears were shocked. But, I have remembered it my entire life. And on days like today, I look back fondly on her wise words.
"It's as cold as a Well Digger's ass."
She taught me other things too.

But, that whole "well digger" thing, well that always stuck with me.

It really is indeed, as cold as a Well Diggers.....well, you know.
Stay warm!

  1. Yup, moms can come up with some good ones. My mom's was "It's as cold as a witch's tit". That was always a shocker when she said it!

  3. Lord, I'm afraid of the coloquialisms my children will say they learned from me!

    Either way, I'm glad I'm not a well digger today! It's 20 degrees this morning. I promise I won't whine when it's 103 in July!

  4. My dad always said "colder than a witch's t*t",too! We've reformed it because of kids and now, in my own family we say, "Colder than a witch's BROOM!"

  7. Here's my Mom's "naughty" poem that she always used to say:

    Ladies and gentlemen take my advice, pull down your pants and slide on the ice"

    Goes well with the picture for today too!
