Sixes and sevenses: the side effects of moves

Yesterday when Miz Becky got home from her afternoon workshop, she asked me how my afternoon was. "Well," I said, "I had kind of a Charlie Brown day."
- I broke a nice glass pitcher by knocking it over onto the new granite countertops.
- When I tried to keep the pieces from going all over the floor, I put an ugly (but not particularly dangerous) cut in my wrist.
- Keeping that elevated to help stop the bleeding put me behind on the work I needed to get done this weekend.
- Then I had the priveledge of putting the first scratch in our re-finished floors, thanks to my aging office chair.
- Finally, shaving without my glasses on after my late-afternoon shower, I used gingermint toothpaste instead of the similarly-packaged shaving cream I had meant to reach down.
I blame it on the move. Right? Right?

At least you didn't try to brush your teeth with the shaving cream...

how'd the gingermint toothpaste work for that? Will you go back to shaving cream? Or have you discovered something new?

Yes! I say definitely blame it on the move. Moves make people all catty-wompus. I believe that has been officially verified by clinical medical trials. :-) Sorry to hear you had a "Charlie Brown" of a day (what a good description, though!)...
