Today we dropped off our keys and garage door openers off at our old house. No more Green Tea Ice Cream house. No more formerly Orange house. I didn’t really have any gift for my Mom or my wife on Mother’s day as I spent all week moving boxes (100 in all) in my car to the storage area.

I can’t say were were overjoyed to leave it. It was a nice house and it is sad that we can’t stay now that the house is perfect.

I am happy that it has sold after nearly an entire year of trying. That is a lot of days spent cleaning. I have never lived in such a clean house.

Right now I am crashed out at my parent’s house. They are quietly unhappy with this state, though they keep telling me that they want me to feel welcome.

It won’t be long though. We will be out of here shortly. As for today, it wasn’t an especially nice Mother’s Day I think. Mrs. Mice is on edge and at one point she flipped me the bird. Normally I would find that endearing, but today was somehow strangely different.

I also missed going to Whole Earth Festival for the first time since I went in 1989. I missed seeing my friends and my ex-girlfriends. Yes, I like seeing my ex-girlfriends. They probably recoil in disgust like looking at Quasimodo.

I am hoping its going to get better from here on out. If it does get worse, don’t tell me about it, I will be busy riniging the bells.
