Motherly Advice

So, it turns out making a ‘plan’ is a bad thing for me. Blogtember (all 3 days of it) have stressed me out trying to come up with things to write. I’m not a writer at all…no shocker there if you’ve been around here for any period of time.  I can pretty much finish most of this prompts off in 1 sentence and then stare blankly at all of you while crickets chirp in the background. If I can even come up with one sentence that is.

Anyway, today’s prompt is to pass on some advice or information I’ve learned.  *blank stare*  I KNOW I’ve been given some great advice in my 27 years…but right now, while Blogtember is telling me to share it with the world, I am completely drawing a blank.  The few gems that have stuck with me the most are things my mom told me when I was little…and now, as a mom myself, I’m beginning to think they were just things she said to scare me out of doing things. Like when I told Layla coffee will make her shrink (aka stunt her growth…but shrink worked better for a 3 year old) so she wouldn’t always ask to share my frappuccinos. It worked and she was 6 or 7 before she realized she wont ACTUALLY shrink. She still avoids caffeine though…I think she secretly thinks I’m right.

Now, the three bits of advice/warnings I remember from when I was little…Google tells me I’m not the only one to believe this.

Always pull out your splinters….

If you don’t, they will enter your bloodstream, float to your heart, and kill you.

This guys wants to know if it’s possible.

Don’t pull hairs out of moles….

It will cause cancer.

But will it really?

Don’t fart in tights….

Does this one need explanation?
