Decisions, Decisions

I had an idea this morning. It involves finding a way to take care of our grown children who need somewhere to go. It of course spiraled into several other ideas and now we are facing many decisions. I am like this often. I get one idea and it kind of explodes like dominoes that keep knocking each other over one at time in a a line that never seems to end.

As soon as anything is firm, I'll be sure and blog it, but until then, as my mom used to say, "mums the word."

And since you are wondering as I was:

Mum's the word

Meaning

Keep quiet - say nothing.

Origin

Mum; not mother but 'mmmmm', the humming sound made with a closed mouth. Used by Shakespeare in Henry VI, Part 2:

"Seal up your lips and give no words but mum."
