The Hobbit Hole XII - Tree and flower and leaf and grass
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Tree and flower and leaf and grass

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!

Been having thunderstorms here for about 4 hours. The HAM weather station says we've nearly had an inch of rain this afternoon! I am wondering if that storm had something to do with my troublesome connection to this number earlier.

Ivy (cousin age 4) and I are making Play Doh stuff now. :-) Fun is being had! :-)

~waving frantically~

Will have your nail polish in the mail to you soon as I get home! But, that won't be for another week!

I am going to be helping Aunt Cheryl babysit the kids this week - except for half a day sometime when I'm going bike riding with a friend. My bike's been down for too long so he's bringing his bike over and I'm just gonna ride with him for about half a day. I *think* I can still remember how to ride on the back. *sigh*

Saturday we're having our city 4th of July celebration and I'm helping with parade stuff and Sunday I'm going to a gun show with a cousin. :-) Driving home a week from today. Got a fun busy week ahead of me! :-)

Great, now I'm going to have nightmares about traveling tomorrow. At least my parents are coming along, I'll let them do the worrying.

You know I am much more at peace when I'm down here than in Wichita Falls. When I'm up there - I get to worrying about stuff I shouldn't worry about - just cause. Aunt Cheryl is sacked out on the couch now and I've got the kids watching a video and Ivy and I are still making Play Doh stuff. :-)

Yep, lots of times we don't see those consequences but they're there. This time it was just really nice. :-)

Must take kids up in the playrooms to play. They're getting rowdy and Aunt Cheryl is sleeping. Back later.

Oh, they're lovely! I love quilts...they really make a place homey, and ones with a story are just awesome. I really want to learn to quilt someday...

Hi!

So...tomorrow's the day of the big trip?

We went on a little trip today...about an hour and a half away to a place with actual big stores like Circuit City and such. I drove...thought I was getting out of it for once, but it didn't happen that way. On the bright side, I'm getting better at driving in scary places. Not good at it...but better.

I don't have any money, so mostly just wandered through the few places we went - Circuit City, Toys R Us, and Petsmart. Coulda spent a lot of money at any one of 'em if I'd had it. I want a digital jukebox, for one...it was neat seeing them in person. I hadn't realized iPods are so small! Way cool.
