Pierre qui roule n'amasse pas "moose"

By
Education & Training

OK... this is a French title and represents a French proverb and the word moose is pronounced the same but should be actually "mousse" in French.  In English, it is "a rolling stone gathers no moss". In other words, one that moves often and has lots of changes in situation, does not accumulate much wealth. I have done my share of moving in life and very content to be back and living where I grew up. As much as one would like to limit the changes in situation, one also realizes that the only thing constant in life is change.

So why this post?

It is just to remember that it is Moose Monday and despite I have not been very active here on Active Rain, I don't want my account to lose the Public views (and become a De-active Rain account).  I am trying to avoid a change of status in my account... lol.

Someone reading this may correct me, but I think a member to stay active, he or she must post a blog once every 90 days minimum (I remember reading it somewhere here on AR a while back).  So tomorrow will be the 90th day and I want to avoid that and it just happens to be a Monday today so why not make a Moose Monday with a French flavor since it is coming from Montreal.

So hello to all my AR friends in the real estate industry which I have not said hello to in a long time.

Thank you for dropping by and happy fall season and if you see Moose, you can still post at Moose Monday.

For those who are wondering what "Moose Monday", just ask and  I will post a link to the Moose Monday group so you do see what it all about.  Moose be Monday today!  :-)

I should be back here with my next post just in time for Christmas (90 days from now).  Carpe diem.

It has been a while Gerry, good thing that you remembered the 90 day posting rule. Hopefully we will see more soon. Doesn't look like you'll be watching the Habs anytime soon though.

Malcolm,

No Habs or Leafs anytime soon.  I will stick with the Montreal Alouettes for the next few weeks and then we shale see if NHL hockey will be back or not any time soon.

Glad you restarted the clock so you'll have another 90 days. Interesting to hear of regional days like Moose Monday.
