The Hobbit Hole VI - And Whither Then? I Cannot Say...

[ecurbh]

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

And Whither Then? I Cannot Say...

• First thread: New Zealander builds Hobbit hole
• Second thread: The New Hobbit Hole
• Third thread: The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads! (Congratulations, we filled it up!)
• Fourth Thread: The Hobbit Hole IV - The Road Goes Ever On...
• Fifth Thread: The Hobbit Hole V - Where Many Paths and Errands Meet...

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

...and they blow themselves up....kewl....

"How about a little fire, scarecrow???"

[RosieCotton]

Well...I got it! Time will tell if I'll actually use it...but I could certainly sell it for what I paid for it if things didn't go well. It's not fancy, but not bad at all, either! Doesn't have lots of incline levels or doo-dads like heart monitoring and such, but does go up to faster than I'll ever be able to run, and it can either be flat or on an incline. And it's in very good shape...was driven by a little old lady only on Sundays, so to speak. ;-)

Now I just need to get an extension cord...the only place it fits well when unfolded is in the bedroom, which is fine...but the nearest outlet is just outta reach. Hate it when that happens.

So...maybe I can even start the same plan you're on? We could be exercise buddies remotely! If you'd be willin' to have me, that is. ;-)

Meanwhile, I got plenty of exercise gettin' the thing into the house. I probably shoulda waited until I had a brother or two to help, but I'm too stubborn for that. Getting it through the door was the hardest part. After that I just set it on a blanket and slid it through the house.

surprising how many people get caught for just that reason alone.

Meth (a.k.a. "Crystal") isn't going to be pills

I actually knew that! I meant that the problem in our area, as far as I've heard, is pills like Oxycontin and such.

[RosieCotton]

Or Kimchee! - They bury that in the ground till it rots!

LOL! Now THERE'S an idea!

Vey sinister, that.

[Wneighbor]

Kewl Rosie. Good luck with it!

Goin home last student finished exam.

[JenB]

Oh, hurrah! Remote exercise buddies works for me. I'm going to work out on Monday, Wednesday and Saturdays. Did the first one today... what days will you try to hit? I can nag you if you haven't done it...

I meant that the problem in our area, as far as I've heard, is pills like Oxycontin and such.

If it doesn't make you want to listen to Pink Floyd, it isn't really a drug.

I also missed the "pyromania" phase of childhood development so I'm not really sure what those smell like either...

You never at least burned holes in stuff with a magnifying glass? You poor deprived child!

Incidentally...I think I've mentioned this here before...but when I was little we found out that milk dud boxes - the mini ones like you get Halloween candy in - don't just get little holes burned in 'em. Something about the composition of the paper or the ink used meant that they'd burst into flame with a little careful application of a magnifying glass. Kewl...

[RosieCotton]

I need a nag! ;-) Probably Mondays (late), Wednesdays and Thursdays. Maybe on the weekend, if I can swing it. I'm going to aim for three or four days a week.

Exploring alternate income opportunities?

Heh.... maybe just a hobby farm....

[JenB]

Heh, I'm starting easy... figure I need at least a day in between to recooperate. Plus I work too late Thursday, and don't get back from choir until almost ten on Tuesdays.

So. Getting started now? Or waiting until Wednesday?

PE is feeling pretty bad today. Went to bed last night with a sore throat, this morning slept in, went into work late, but still went in. He came home tonight with headache from Hell and achy flu-like symptoms. Now he's got the shivers to boot. He and Elf-boy are already sleepin (elf-boy only went to be 30 minutes early). I told PE to call in in the morning.

He has already had the flu once this season, argh! I'm prayin it is just a cold, but I fear it is the real deal.

Just a bunch of sickies over here.

[Rose in RoseBear]

Hoot, hoot!

[RosieCotton]

I have stuff going on so much of the time...I'm picking the days when I'm LEAST likely to chicken out.

I'm not gonna do it tonight...I'll start Wednesday.

Do you have the link to that program? You posted it once before, but I didn't bookmark it like I should have...

He turned thirty-five last Sunday
In his hair he found some gray
But he still ain't changed his lifestyle
He likes it better the old way
So he grows a little garden in the back yard by the fence
He's consuming what he's growing, nowadays in self defense
He get's out there in the twilight zone
sometimes, when it just don't make no sense

-- From the song "Old Hippie"

[Ramius]

hehehe...

[JenB]

Then I'll bug you Wednesday, and you do it for me, too!

This is the site. I did Week 1, Workout 1 today. And just barely made it, I might add.

[HairOfTheDog]

~snicker~
Good lyric!

[RosieCotton]

I don't think it's going to be easy for me, either! IT work isn't exactly conducive to cardiovascular fitness...

I'll start Week 1 on Wednesday, then.
