Things I learned from my nana

1. You can want in one hand and shit in the other, see which one gets full fastest!

2. God tells us to make a joyful noise unto him, that doesn't necessarily mean it has to sound good.

3. Dryer sheets ward off mosquitos!

4. When someone is being a cry baby, lifting your shirt up and offering them some titty is an appropriate response.

5. God gave you dominion over creatures. (she seriously tells every bug that comes near her that god gives her dominion over them and to get out)

She might be crazy as a loon, but I love that old woman! What did your grandma teach you!

 oh i know they do. but it didn't help me much that i was a young teenager when both of mine passed. both were really nice and loved me alot, I should have had more respect for my dad's mom when she was alive, I feel bad for that. but the other one idk it's just like no matter how bad she felt until she really bad off, she was always there for me no matter what... i spent so much time with her and we did alot of things together. she taught me how to quilt. her and my mom both taught me how to cook. and the thing I loved most about my mom's mom was that we would always get together on every major holiday to spend time with her...

I am sorry for babbling like that... you probably dont' want to even hear it at all. it's just that the op brings back alot of memories for me about my mom's mom.

well i'll shut up now cuz you probably don't want to hear... i am sorry...

simple frown

The other one, i kid you not was like a best friend to me, and i thought she would never die, at the time anyway, i just never picutered her dieing... If she didn't teach me anything else she taught me what a true really was. She was so dear to me...

My dads mom always told us stories about the devil. Lol. Not very grandmotherly, but, eh that's her. I haven't seen her in over ten years. I miss her sooo much! I want to see her so bad.
Mg moms mom... Well, I love her but I'm not too close to her. My grandpa was the one everyone was close to. After he died, it just wasn't the same going over to the house.
