MeandMarj: I just made it!

Grandmother: Do you know I made this rug?
Alison: No I didn't - how did you make it?
Grandmother: I just made it - you can tell.
Alison: How?
Grandmother: At school, when we lived in Providence, there was a place that taught you how to make rugs.
Alison: It's a really pretty rug.
Grandmother: Yeah, it is!

MeandMarj: Don't rip it! Don't rip it!

Alison: Let's go upstairs and find your wedding dress!
Grandmother: Now?
Alison: You don't want to?
Grandmother: I didn't say, "No."
Alison: Okay, let's go!
Grandmother: I think that's it.
Alison: Uh oh, I don't think it's going to fit.
Grandmother: Don't rip it! Don't rip it!
Alison: I won't! I got it off ... Maybe I could do something with the fabric?
Grandmother: You will not do anything with that dress!
Alison: Okay!

MeandMarj: Just looking at somebody's red car out front.

Alison: Does looking out the window make you want to go outside?
Grandmother: Not especially. Just looking at somebody's red car out front.
Alison: I wonder whose that is.
Grandmother: I have no idea.

MeandMarj: Just some cars parking.

Alison: What's going on out there?
Grandmother: Nothing, just some cars parking...one right across the street.
Alison: Interesting.
Grandmother: There goes a cat.
Alison: Uh oh...watch out for those cats.
Grandmother: There it goes again.

MeandMarj: Lord only knows!

Grandmother: Then my mother's family - the Armours you know what they did?

Grandmother: They were meat packers from Chicago. They made a lot of money.
Alison: What happened to all that money?
Grandmother: Lord only knows!

MeandMarj: Let's google him!

Grandmother: My ancestors go right back to the founding fathers.

MeandMarj: We lived in a housing project.

Grandmother: We lived in a housing project. There were four units and we lived in one unit in the end. Let's see ... we had more fun! On Saturday night we'd always party.
Alison: Where would you party?
Grandmother: At the club.
Alison: What would you do the other nights of the week?
Grandmother: We would eat with friends in their units.
Alison: Were you happily married?
Grandmother: Oh yeah, we had fun. We had lots of fun.
Alison: Was it weird to live with a man though?
Grandmother: Noooooo!

MeandMarj: Oh, we had fun!

Alison: Tell me a story.
Grandmother: I don't have any stories.
Alison: What was it like when you first got married?
Grandmother: Oh, we had fun! We use to go to the club every Saturday night and have more fun!
Alison: What would you do?
Grandmother: We just had fun.
Alison: How? What was fun?
Grandmother: I don't know...there was a group of us that always went together. Of course, we didn't have a car but all of our friends did.
Alison: How did you get around without a car?
Grandmother: All of our friends had cars.
Alison: Didn't you feel like an imposition?
Grandmother: Not at all...we would go with them.
Alison: So, what was your first car?
Grandmother: Oh gosh, I don't remember.

MeandMarj: We have to go up to the market, don't we?

Alison: What do you want to do tomorrow?
Grandmother: Tomorrow is Saturday right?
Alison: Yes, it is!
Grandmother: We have to go up to the market, don't we?
Alison: Of course! Even in the snow!
Grandmother: Well, I hope it stops snowing.

MeandMarj: Your little red car is still there!

Grandmother: Your little red car is still there!
Alison: That's good. I'm glad no one has taken it!

MeandMarj: I don't know.

Alison: How was your dinner?
Grandmother: My dinner?
Alison: Yes, your dinner. What did you have?
Grandmother: I don't know.
Alison: Did you like it?
Grandmother: I guess I did - I ate all of it.

MeandMarj: I was flabbergasted!

Alison: Can you believe it snowed?
Grandmother: When I woke up and saw that it had snowed...I was flabbergasted! 

MeandMarj: I hate for you to go all the way downstairs!

Alison: Okay, good night!
Grandmother: Wait a minute, I hate for you to go all the way downstairs to the basement!
Alison: You want to walk me downstairs and then I'll walk you back upstairs?
Grandmother: Ha..no! But you can move upstairs if you want! Why don't you move upstairs to that bedroom down the hall?
Alison: Okay, I'll think about it!

MeandMarj: Aw, heck!

Grandmother: Where are you going?
Steve: Back to Cleveland.
Grandmother: Aw, heck! We'll miss you!

MeandMarj: Have you signed my guest book?

Grandmother: Have you signed my guest book?
Alison: But, Grandmother, I live here.
Grandmother: Not really.
Alison: But, I really do. I work in Bethesda and I live in your basement. It's been a year and a half.
Grandmother: Oh.

MeandMarj: You like simple things.

Alison: Doesn't it feel great to have a hot shower and a light massage?
Grandmother: I guess so.
Alison: I would love it.
Grandmother: You like simple things.

MeandMarj: You are so gross!

Alison: Okay, my turn to shower now.
Grandmother: You are going to shower?
Alison: Yes, I just worked out...I'm gross.
Grandmother: You are so gross!

MeandMarj: You wear too much black!

Grandmother: You wear too much black!
Alison: Oh? What's wrong with that?
Grandmother: It's the sign of death.
Alison: But, look at all these white socks!
Grandmother: All that is your laundry?
Alison: Yes, this handful is my laundry.
Grandmother: How much money did you put in the hamper?
Alison: $10.
Grandmother: Let me see it! Laundry costs money around here!

MeandMarj: Bed Time!

Alison: What are you doing?
Grandmother: Waiting for you.
Alison: What do you want to do?
Grandmother: Well, its 8:30 by my watch.
Alison: Ready to go to bed?
Grandmother: That's what I was thinking.
Alison: Or we could go out?
Grandmother: We don't have anyone to go out with.
Alison: We could go out together.
Grandmother: Oh, that would be fun.
Alison: It sounds like you are being sarcastic!
Grandmother: Oh.
Alison: Okay, let's go to bed.
Grandmother hops right into bed
Alison: Don't you want to wash your face?
Grandmother: If I don't wash my face, it isn't going to kill me.
Alison: That's true.
Grandmother: Okay, crack open the window.
Alison: Here you go..okay..good night.
Grandmother: Good night, sleep tight, don't let the bed bugs bite.
