Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
...Hill and water under sky
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! |

The interloper was wearing the skivvieless kilt... I wondered about the bystander who tried to help out, though...

SuziQ ; That is still a massive undertaking you all doing. My hat is off to you. (Even if you have Gimli for assistance.) :-)
Contractor schedules? You're definitely better off having YOUR schedule.

Hair; great job - looks like weather is cooperating.
Bonfire? Better ping Ruthie, "Smore's anyone?"
To: Overtaxed
Afternoon OT: it's a conundrum all right, wrapped in an enigma.
Sounds like you want an older house with some shade trees and an open backyard for vegtables. hmmm.
Shade Trees - hmmm. squirrels
Vegtables and flowers - hmmm. deer.

Yes, but I've never been late on a payment for anything before. And anyway, I could do without a lot of things, but internet access is a basic human need.

Yup. It's expensive but I can't live without cable internet. Not after having it for the last five years.

Well, if they're anything like Time-Warner (and they probably are) then the billing statement probably isn't rendered until several days after the "due date". With T-W, our bill is due the 15th of each month, but the next bill isn't rendered until the 20th. So, as long as the payment gets there before the 20th, it's not even counted as being late. You'll find that's true of most service places... there's a built in "grace period" of about 5-7 days, to allow for the vagaries of the postal service.

Oh, yeah.
I'm looking for movie reccomendations... good films, interesting stories, with good fight scenes. Swordfighting preferable, hand-to-hand combat ok. Fairly realistic fights, if possible.
See, the stories I write ought to have good fights, but I can't quite picture the action... any suggestions?
