I'm taking today's post from something my son, Matt, said on his facebook wall the other day. Everyone knows some of the standard cliches and sayings like, "when life hands you lemons, make lemonade". Matt put on his wall, "when life hands you lemons ..."
I was surprised at how many people added their own twist to that saying! Like this:
When life hands you lemons ...
... add sugar.
... throw them back and demand oranges.
... make grape juice and confuse the daylights out of everyone.
It got me to thinking about how creative a lot of my friends are in blog world. So how about it? Let me give you two different sayings, and you leave a comment with your own twist on it. Choose either, or answer both.
It ain't over 'til ...
OR
Been there, done that ...
Or use the lemon one:
When life hands you lemons ...
How would you finish these sayings?
