I was always a sucker for sweet nothings until I learned they are only zeroes dipped in sugar.
It is not wise to take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.
The best form of housework is to sweep the room with a glance.
A conscience is what hurts when all the other body parts feel so good.
Experience enables us to recognize a mistake when we make it again.
Try not to weigh more than the refrigerator.
Never lick a steak knife.
Some good things I have learned. Hah.

Those statements are so true but told in such a funny way, they seem delightful. Thanks for sharing your learning with us but more for making us smile!
Very, very funny, TechnoBabe. Sage advice all. Don't team a sleeping pill with a laxative, huh? HA!
ha. too funny, but some great wisdom there.
Ha, such wise words! Never lick a steak knife - love it! Thanks for making me smile.
Love the second one - you didn't really do this, did you?
mmmm, that conscience one....
Love this "learning curve!"
Sweeping the room with a glance -yep, I have to agree with that one as well as the sleeping pill with a laxative. Good words, my friend!
It sounds like there may be a good story or two behind some of these things you have learned.
Each one of these could be a post, I am sure. I love the one about conscience. Great thoughts.
I had a good laugh about the sleeping pill and laxative!! Licking a steak knife.... horrors!!! Have a super Thursday, dear. xoxo
wisdoms to live by friend, toche!
Giggle I loved every one. For some reason I could actually picture you as you were acting out each one funny girl!!
May I add one or two....
Always where a one piece when in the ocean.
Move your keyboard while reading funny posts like this one..as blowing coffee through your nose tends to short it out:)
Hugs and love, Sarah
I've learned a few now too! Thanks!
I am so good at sweeping a room with a glance.
Sleeping pill with laxative would make for shitty sleep.
Thank you for sharing this. I am not sure that I have learned them all yet so good reminders. :-D
Sweep the room with a glance. I like that.
I love them all! You are very wise!
Thanks and hugs!!
I like that bit about experience. I'm becoming a pro at recognizing mistakes. I make them so often.
I LICKED on my steak knife. So? :)
Ha .. very clever. :)
Oh, so funny... and true! I love the sweep the room with a glance... sounds like my kind of housework!
lol - I've perfected the sweeping glance.
Love your wisdom, TechnoBabe!
and what's up with that conscience thing? ;)
Man, I'm glad I don't take laxatives, or sleeping pills. *shudder* Rubber sheets? Depends?
Thanks for the mental picture. And the laugh. :o)
A conscience is what hurts when all the other body parts feel so good.
Love that one...
Oh, so very true. Funny, but true!
That's my kind of sweeping. Actually, I don't even have a broom, so it's my only option.
Those are all very sage words of advice, my friend!
These are classic.
Each and every one.
Thanks for the laugh today, it was needed :)
very good lessons.
A favorite of mine from Mary Schmich, Chicago Trib columist:
"Advice is a form of nostalgia. Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth."
Okay these are good ones.....
I think my favorite may be the "sweeping glance!" Thanks so much for this amazing wisdom. I can't TELL you how much I needed it right now!
Have a great weekend!!
these are GREAT !!!....really really great advice !
and my photos....the scratches.....it's a layer/texture :)
have a great weekend !!
I remember reading the rule "Never eat anything bigger than your head."
I'm lovin' number 3. LOL I'll need to adopt that one. And I'm very happy to say that I do not weigh more than the refrigerator. Yet. :-)
The quotes are fantastic. I love to write quotes so this post perked my interest. Thanks for adding humor to my otherwise bland morning.
the sleeping pill one is funny!
Funny! Great list! I'm posting it on my fridge as I type.
I like those things although I have licked a steak knife and not had a conscience at times when my body parts felt really good.
Very good advice (and very funny).
All good advice! Congrats on POTW!
LOL!! All great advice. Especially the sleeping pill and the laxative. Very good reminder! HA!
Congrats on your POTW
