The Hobbit Hole VIII - Still round the corner we may meet...

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Still round the corner we may meet...

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

Mmmmm....green tea with mint, lemon balm, and ginger root.

Oh, that sounds good!

I need to get more fresh ginger.

I saw the thread about Bogdan's Magda...didn't make it back here to the HH last night because I was reading it. I couldn't find ANY words to say...just trying made me teary-eyed, and I gave up trying to post. You guys did good.

As you discussed last night, it's hard to say what should be done about people like that...most end up being repeat offenders. It's as if they don't have a conscience, or think the worst couldn't possibly happen to them.

What a senseless tragedy. At least he has a TON of people praying for him...but it just makes me feel so helpless and angry for him.

Awww... now he won't have anything to point to when he's trying to tell the other kids how the doctor "destroyed" him.

LOL, I had forgotten that he said that the doctor destroyed him! I gotta write these things down for when he gets older. The things kids say...

BTW, he is into telling jokes lately. One of his favorites is:
Why did the gum cross the road?
Because it was stuck to the chicken's foot!

or jam yer keys into his eye

A friend of mine imparted that bit of info about 20 years ago. As a result, I ALWAYS carry my key in a manner that can be used for jabbing, if need be, especially when walking in a dim parking lot or garage.

Is anyone else getting hyperlinks on various words in their posts? This is the second time it's happened in as many posts this morning. Truly strange.

Eat some Mexican food!

The day I went into labor with Clare, for sure, (I'd had two false starts) SSQ and I had lunch at Garcia's of Scottsdale, complete with beer, then walked the Mall for two hours! It still took another 10 hours, but she finally got here. Was regretting that Mexican long about midnight, though! ;o)
