Have you ever heard this expression?
| Thu, 01-10-2008 - 3:47pm |
My granddaughter Sara will be 4 middle of this month and I am working on painting a mouse inside the pocket of a couple of jeans I found on sale at Target for her. I had painted a pocket with a mouse in it on a sweatshirt for my mil a long time ago and I think it was her favorite gift since in their family when she would say "We are going to do ..." her husband would look at her and say, "Who's this 'we' woman? You and that mouse you have in your pocket?" Well my parents said that some too and I was wondering if it was a Midwestern saying or if others had heard of it too. My neighbor is from New Mexico and Wyoming and apparently they don't have mice in their pockets. She had never heard the expression before. Maybe that's why her hubby is so handy around her house? Probably my dil will just think I'm nuts but then she probably already thinks it.
