Gotta love dem old saws! ;)
I've never heard that last one! The others are pretty common around here. Great list.
LMAO! I heard some of those but #10 made me giggle! Excellent list! Happy TT!
I've heard some of those before. We're trying not to teach them to our children.
Ha! My father-in-law says #12 ALL THE TIME. LOL!
OMG! I haven't heard some of those in YEARS!
*LOL*

Hi Heather! Some of them are endearing :)
Jennifer, I heard that last one quite often growing up, whenever I wanted something I just wasn't going to get! ;)
Hey Emma:)
There are a zillion variations on number ten, but I thought it was the funniest one :)
Good luck, Sara!:)
Hi Jennifer!
Number twelve is just cute ;)
Hi Debbie! Some of them I wish I had never heard ;)
Thanks for stopping by:)
Hi Rhonda:)
My grandma said all of those and then some. I might have to ask my mom for some more, because I know I was forgetting so many. 'Course, I only had the 13 spots anyway...
Thanks, Savannah! Nice seeing you:)
Hi Tempest! You've never heard any of them?? Wow!
Thanks, Paige!:)
LOL, those are just funny.
Hi Amelia! They are pretty funny!
Thanks for stopping by :)
Sounds a lot like where I grew up (in MD near Harper's Ferry, WVa). Great list! Love it.
I refuse to admit how many of these as a gal born in WV I was required to know.

Hey Kaige, nice to see you!
Sometimes it's hard to believe that people still use those expressions, but they are alive and well :)
I know exactly what you mean, Moondancer! ;)
We must have had the same kin folk?
was there an old guy blowin on a wiskey jug on your porch too?
I didn't grow up with country sayings, but I grew up with Dad sayings. Only when I got older did I realize that no one else says them... just him. And now, I have brain freeze. Can't think of a one. :(
Haha, Tara! There was! But one of the coon dogs bit him on the toe and he was too mad to come back again. Caused a feud betwixt the famlies, doncha know. ;)
Hi Carrie!
That'd make a great TT, if you could remember thirteen dad sayings!:)
