    Okay, I guess I am officially gettin’ old. That or it is a Texas thing. I still use that expression when it is appropriate. Comes up two or three times a year.

    When life’s rope gives you a knot, stand, don’t sit. If you’re wearing shoes (the knot would hitch your getalong pretty badly if you’re barefoot), you can have a good ol’ time on that swing.

    I really need to find a way to say “put a hitch in my getalong” somehow this week.

    You could always put the rope through the knothole of a board before tying that knot. Check for splinters first, though.

    My mother said “When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.”
