I couldn’t confirm it on the internet, but my minister told me Phyllis Diller said this: “I hated to drink in front of the children, but when they weren’t around, I didn’t need to.”
I did get to scrapbook. My friends do it at the Country Club, where they offered a $17 buffet last night. I stuck to the salad bar and probably spent nearly as much. I managed to get 13 pages done, but some of them are pretty plain. I may doctor them up later. I had sorted out my photos ahead of time and made baggies of about 20 “pages” that were ready to go. Not having to sort through pictures made the whole process go a lot faster.
Now in honor of cleaning my house this morning, another Diller quote: “Cleaning your house while your kids are still growing up is like shoveling the walk before it stops snowing.”

LOL~ “I hated to drink in front of the children, but when they weren’t around, I didn’t need to.” I don’t drink~ but it explains a lot of the times I wanted to. Too funny! Glad you able to get out!

Love the quotes. I bet I could fashion some hilarious scrapbook pages around both of those quotes . . . lol

Favorite Phyllis Diller quote: “If your house is really a mess and a stranger comes to the door, greet him with ‘Who could have done this? We have no enemies.'”

I am glad you got to scrapbook! It is so nice to Get Things Done, especially all those memory type things. I do better with long sessions than trying to do bits and pieces, mostly because it is so much effort to get all the stuff out. And if Phyllis Diller didn’t say that, it is still worth quoting!
