Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
A sudden tree or standing stone
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! |

Ohhh, "the week from hell" - I can relate.
Well, thank God you caught and cleaned up the malware before it caused too much damage. KUDOS to you and your team!
What you up to? Hanging out at the watering hole before heading to the beach house?

Evening, all.
Thanks to folks for clearing up last night's discussion. I understand now people were being protective of Ruthy because she's afraid of the water, which I wasn't aware of. Ruthy, I hope you know I wouldn't tease you about something if I thought it was really bothering you; I thought I was just joking with you like I always do.
Speaking of last night's discussion, here's a funny coincidence. A few minutes ago I got a call from my parents, who are visiting my brother in California. So guess where my Mom calls me from? The shark display at the aquarium! She says there's a shark book there she's thinking of buying me and she wanted to know if I'd be interested in it. I'm not making this up!--weird, huh?
As for the spider/bug thread, those pictures everyone was posting gave me a nightmare last night! I had a dream that a big spider/scorpion was crawling around and I squished it with my right hand, but I got stung in the process. When I woke up my right finger was itching. Fortunately it was just dry skin, not a spider bite! :)
Well, I'm finishing up supper here. Hope everyone is having a nice evening.

the Puss in Boots character is fantastic. Antonio Banderas plays him, right?Yes, and yes! I don't want to say too much though, I don't want to give away any spoilers...

Hi Fedora!!
All of you in the Hobbit Hole are my family, so I don't get all upset over some teasing that's done in fun (just as brothers would do if I had any!)
During this point in my life, it's a welcome distraction and in a funny way, shows me that there are folks out there that care about me enough to tease me in the first place! (((FEDORA)))
If your mom got the shark book, you can always scan new "friends" for me to look at! *laughing*
And can I just say "EEEWWWWWW!" regarding the squishing spider hand bite dream! *shiver*

Sounds like you're getting a lot of fringe benefits from your low-carb diet!

Thanks for sparing me from spoilers, even though I don't mind them before I see a movie. Spoilers only bother me if someone tells them to me DURING the movie.
