Up
The “CREEK” Without a Paddle is An Old
Saying. I know you have heard the old saying, “Up the creek without a
paddle”.
Yes,
I see you smiling over there, you’ve heard it. I have actually cleaned the
title up a bit so that it is not considered profane or inappropriate.
The
actual title is “Up BLANK Creek
Without a Paddle”. The word in the blank begins with an “s” and, it ends with a
“t”. It has two letters in the middle, “h” and “i”.
Why
am I talking about being up blank creek
without a paddle? I am talking about it to keep from going absolutely
head-banging crazy. Mama is on one of her “out-of-her-mind” journeys. I’m
dealing with it as calmly as humanly possible, without getting dramatic myself.
If
it would do any good, I would scream! But, it won’t. So, I won’t. Thank God it’s
almost her bedtime.
Until
then…
I
am “UP BLANK CREEK”!!!
Oh yes! I've heard that expression alright and we've used it. I haven't heard it with the blank word though. LOL.
