Swearing (Jeanne)

There was a lot of swearing in our household, but there were definite limits. The F-bomb was not allowed. "Sheeshtamatchi" was the made-up swearword to replace the real thing when an effort to NOT swear was happening. Eileen could not tolerate the word "piss" and wasn't too fond of "pee," either. "Just say you have to void!" She would make us laugh so hard with this.
