Eleventh Thread: Wedding Edition: The Hobbit Hole XI - No One Admitted Except on Wedding Business!
New verse:
Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
Good Afternoon All; three days - yessss. And decent weather to boot.
To the residents of the sunshine state - stay safe our prayers are for all those residing there.
Hair; see ya moved again, sure is clean. hmmm. We can make it seem more homey shortly.
Gnad; just 11 days. :-)
OT; Nall is an arterial roadway, the traffic is steady but the speeds are relatively low. I use it quite a bit when I'm that side of town instead of the Interstates. I like the neighborhoods over there. I'll say the Stone CC looked pretty nice. I've used the realestate websites and links from cities when doing 'replacement housing' studies at work; amazing the difference in housing prices around the states for essentially the same home type.
Have you been advising every single woman I've interacted with in my entire life, or just the pretty ones?
:) Just kidding. It only seems that way sometimes.
Let's all sing "Rocky Mootin' High"...
I shall make it my goal to discover the most picturesque, exciting places in the state for our future Rocky Mootin'!
Addin' my prayers to the pile...if you can still see this! I'm catching up here...
Heh...considering my boss is my teacher, I prolly shouldn't do that. ;-)
But you and lil are right. Who cares? It'll be a fun class, and I should get as much out of it as I can and ignore all the other students if that's what it takes.
Hard not to feel a BIT self conscious, though, bein' the only gal. Though...thinking back, it's been that way maybe most of the time. Just aren't that many gals in the computer field, even in basic support roles. Don't know why...for the most part, PC support is a matter of a little experience and a lot of common sense.
Heh...it IS true for a lot of 'em. Not all, though. Just saw one of the local guys at the store as I was comin' home - we've played music with him sometimes - and he doesn't have any problems there.
But...for the most part, you may be right!
Hm...wonder what causes that?
That was the first thought that flashed into my head.
It's gonna be stuck there for awhile, I'm afraid.
Just from the pictures, I'd say the stone CC is my favorite structure so far. I'll have to see if the back yard is sunny enough for a garden and if the traffic noise is too much.
I like the yard description of the fixer-upper so I figured I'd at least take a look and see how much fixing up and what type of fixing up it'll need....and if I'm up to it.
Trying to stay away from properties that require flood insurance.
Don't Fear the Earworm.
The Cubs/Marlins game is postponed....probably will be tomorrow too.
Osage, I got out my pitcher pump this afternoon, I figure you are someone that knows what that is.
I'll need it to get water, if we lose electricity.
Although I think the leather parts are ruined, so it'll be useless 'til I can get those replaced. I better do that before Ivan gets here.
Yeah, and ice insurance, too!
And with that last line, a new earworm is born.
Hehehe....
But I still miss the woods.
I hear alot of real loud laughter coming from next door.
They only put up a couple shutters and allowed as how some more beer could help them decide whether to finish the job.
Believe they've decided, probably correctly, that the storm will go ashore north of here.
In a strange way, hurricanes produce a carnival atmosphere.
Even animals act inappropriately in the path of an approaching storm.
Sam, well, some leather dressing might help unless it has hit the dry powdery stage. Gasket material might be an acceptable substitue. Inner tube?
A ready source of tanned leather might be hard to find on short notice.
I miss the woods too.
Glad there is a Gulf Stream here.
