I am a very Southern Belle and probably a handful (high maintenance) but over all a very nice, kind generous person that totally values family. So at my age 50, I just do not care what anyone thinks. There is a great phrase on Pinterest that says "What other people think of me is none of my business". I have three very well educated daughters with wonderful jobs and raised them all by myself...their dad climed the corporate ladder and liked the "greener grass", so a disney paycheck dad who was not involved in the every day life just made me stronger. I am a nurse by profession and have a huge compassion for others, but at the same time, I do not tolerate anything less than acceptable and that is why people who are not like the "prissy" women have a problem. Sad, but it is just jelousy. Now....I will say, I love to decorate my home, but after seeing you Miss Priss...I need to start reading your blog for your fashion tips!! Thank you for giving me permission to not feel bad for the way I am and the way I hold my standards and carry myself in a manner that obviously irritates those who have no clue about manners, social ettiquite and so forth!

Suzanne Sugarbaker was the best prisspot. Growing up in the Midwest, ladies and young girls were referred to as being "very particular" in their manner and they way they dressed. I think I prefer the appellation prissy. Think I'm too old at sixty-six to become prissy?

When I was in college, Wesleyan of course, we used to comment on all the little old ladies ( like my mother) who wore their Ferragamos. What do I wear now....Ferragamos! Plus, my mother recently passed, so I now have 7 sets of fine china, 2 sets of sterling and crystal. Now, why does ANYONE need 7 sets of fine china? Is that not southern and terribly prissy?<br /><br />A Dixie ChikA Dixie Chikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02778193269893899616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4691615549993586603.post-79625634696211633462010-10-12T22:45:57.146-04:002010-10-12T22:45:57.146-04:00I just found your blog and laughed out loud when I...I just found your blog and laughed out loud when I saw this post! Yes Ma'am, I am a priss pot and so proud of it. I don't think a southern womens job is done unless her daughter is undeniably a "priss!" I am very proud that my daughter's nickname is Miss Priss.
