Never go to bed on an argument

N & G I put my lemons in the gin ?

My mother always said: "Treat others as you would like to be treated yourself" and I have always tried to do that.

My mum always said that grannyqueenie!
My favourite is simply "It is what it is". Some how it puts things into perspective for me. I am also using "Good enough is good enough" quite a bit in the build up to Christmas!!
