MeandMarj: I'm sorry we had words this morning.

Alison: Time to get dressed!
Grandmother: I don't want to.
Alison: Grandmother! It's Tuesday and you've been in your robe for three days!!!!!!
Grandmother: I don't care and I'm not going to. I'll do it when I want to and don't tell me what to do!!!!! You annoy me!
Alison: That's not true and if it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have new groceries; the trash wouldn't have been taken out and the recycling wouldn't have been taken to the recycling. I have to go to work.

Calling Grandmother on the way to work

Alison: Grandmother, how are you?
Grandmother: Fine.
Alison: Well the furnace repair man is coming this morning. Please get dressed!
Grandmother: I'm eating my breakfast.
Alison: Okay, well, afterwards.
Grandmother: Okay. I'm sorry we had words this morning.
Alison: Grandmother, it's because I love you and I want you to be healthy.
Grandmother: Okay, have a nice day.

MeandMarj: Don't say that!

Alison: I'm such an idiot!
Grandmother: Don't say that!
Alison: Why?
Grandmother: Because you are not an idiot!
Alison: But I drove over a curb and now I have a flat tire.
Grandmother: But I've never heard of you complain about this before.
Alison: Well, that's true and I'm grateful to have a car...
Grandmother: See! It's really not that bad...
Alison: That's true!

Thank you for putting everything in perspective

MeandMarj: I'm still here!

Alison: Good Morning! How are are you?
Grandmother: I'm still here!

MeandMarj: Poor old George Washington would be rolling over in his grave!

Alison: So, you have no Valentine's Day memories?
Grandmother: No, sorry.
Alison: But Valentine's Day happens every year.
Grandmother: But I never paid much attention to it. Oh, we used to have a box and we would decorate it with Valentines on it and then we would drop Valentines in it for people in the class.
Alison: Did you ever get some fun ones?
Grandmother: I can't remember.
Alison: Well, you remember the box...what did you do with the box?

MeandMarj: The part in your hair is crooked!

Grandmother: The part in your hair is crooked.
Alison: Okay, I'll fix it. It's probably this way from carrying out the recycling and the garbage.
Grandmother: You didn't have to do that!
Alison: Ha - I'd love to see you do it! Well, I gotta run - off to work!
Grandmother: Don't forget to fix your part!

MeandMarj: I will, if you get out of my way!

Alison: Good morning! Let's have breakfast, have a seat!
Grandmother: I will, if you get out of my way!

Grandmother: I just can't believe I made it!

MeandMarj: That's neat!

Alison: Grandmother, see how the couples' monogram is designed? The wife's initial is small and the last name is large, and then the husband's initial is small. Want to see what mine and Steve's would be?
"aSs"

Grandmother: That's neat!
Alison: Hahaha! I told Steve I couldn't marry him!
Grandmother: Because of that?
Alison: Yes!
