Re: Pat - My mom also had eyes in the back of her head...
Mom positively assured us that she did. I would look for them while we were in the car and I was riding in the back seat, or if she was washing dishes. I wasn't usually a tattletale, but it was more of a call for help, I think. No, I tattled. lol.

Re: C_C_T
That story about your brother almost takes the cake! In fact, it does, I think! My mother had just turned her back for a second and was down the hall. Thank you.

Whenever I tattled, there was never a good reason for me to do so.
I do remember one time, my young cousin was going through a tattling phase. She was telling on everything we did, even if it was not bad. So for fun, I said to her, "You're an idiot."
She went and told and no one believed her. She had been crying wolf a lot.

I don't remember tattling - Mom had eyes in the back of her head and
anytime she was in the house, we watched our p's and q's. We did conspire to snitch a chocolate chip or two from the bag at the back of the drawer, she used half a bag in a batch of cookies, and we were in danger of serious punishment if we dared to touch the supply waiting for her next baking day.

Well once when my younger brother thought he was a cat and was running around with a mouse in his mouth. I always used to watch in awe as the barber pushed up the nose of a client and nicked beneath with a cut throat razor. Nasty implement your sister was fortunate. What a watchful little sister
