The DH gets mad at me when I say wordy-derds, and the 12yo has started saying, "Mom, watch your words" . . . So, I have had to come up with some creative things to say when I am F#^%$&* P&*^%$# (some are borrowed!)
1) Fedge *
2) Fartnockers
3) Frick *
4) Dern
5) Shiitaki **
6) Holy Guacamole
7) Shee-ite
8) Arse (in another language/dialect, not so bad)
9) Pirates (kids came up w/ that one)
10) Duck head
11) Fidge-it
12) Fudge-sicles
13) Crap in a handbag
Yeah, my kids aren't stupid, but if repeated at school, it's not the real word and you can blame the teacher for having a dirty mind and assuming it means something different!
AND at least I wasn't the one who taught them how to pants each other.
