The Best Laid Plans of Mice and Men



The best laid plans of mice and men amount to nothing when,
the Fates grab you by the scrotes and move the song to higher notes.
The home is sold the move is neigh and days quite busy as I
struggle to cope with uncertainties and hope of the new life awaiting this old goat.

Mr. C has sold his house and must move during the holidays, as luck would have it.  So, I will be out of sorts for awhile and not likely to post but I will try to stop by your place to say hello when I can.  In the meantime… Have the most loving and peaceful holiday.

  2. I'd say "happy moving" but coming from me that would sound sarcastic. Hope all goes well!

  4. I feel for you. Two years ago we moved with our two week old baby the day after Christmas. Ours was a move to a house with a better layout in a better neighborhood. I hope things go smoothly and work out for the best. :)

  5. I remember moving during the holidays. Big pain. I'll stop by to see how you are doing via blogger.
    I finally watched the movie Of Mice and Men. I was a hold-out because I found the book to be so sad.

  6. In this economy, you have been blessed! Enjoy moving - remember to purge and let go of things (I actually like moving for this reason!) I'll say "Merry Christmas" now then.

  12. Loved the "scrotes" line - an 'elevated' theme, for sure. (LOL)

  21. Bummer. In 1971, we moved to Georgia three days before Christmas, and it was a lousy time of year to move. I sure hope the "old goat" is moving somewhere with lots of green pastures. Good luck, and a very Merry Christmas.

  24. The things I hate doing most:
    1.) Weddings
    2.) Funerals
    3.) Moving- the one exception to this rule would be me leaving the suckass neighborhood I live in now.
    Hope everything is going well.

  25. It may be a tough journey, but it will make a great story when you come out the other side.
    Nobody tells a story better than you
    Much Love,
