I only have one remaining grandparent and she is 86...will be 87 in a few weeks. My maternal grandma (aka Nana)
a man's expensive gifts come with a price
make sure you have clean underwear leaving the house
Any woman who depends solely on a man for financial support is a damn fool
Have your own separate account
You don't need a man. Anything you need, YOU can do/get yourself.
Nana was widowed at 31. When her husband died she had 5 kids under the age of 10 and was pregnant...with twins. Yup, she raised 7 kids alone
Don't whistle indoors...bad luck
Don't put your pocketbook on the floor or you will always be "down" (down and out and broke)
Don't sleep with your shoes by your head, you will have bad dreams
Never leave the house without enough money to get home on your own.
Don't make funny faces or it will freeze that way
Cats are evil! I come from a long line of cat haters. Obviously I don't believe that...I have 2 cats I adore! (Yes they are trying to figure out where they went wrong)

No laundry or major chores on New Years Day. It must be done before mid night NYE or it is bad luck
Granted I love my grandmother and have a lot of respect for her, but some of the stuff she said is SO out there!
