The Hobbit Hole XV - Pass them by! Pass them by!
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 09/02/2004 2:18:28 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Pass them by! Pass them by!

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!

heheheh...that is true!

But I think she wanted me to go more for the decorations she worked on rather than the classwork report. *grin*

Me, I would have been thrilled to skip open-house! :~

Wife went to Jr's back-to-school night last night. Luke was too tired to leave with Jr. so I stayed home (okay, so I wanted to anyway).

Wife gave her cell number and email to all of Jr's teachers and said "let me know if he misses an assignment." He did his current events assignment last night when she got home...and she had an extra cell phone in her purse all day.

Get this. It started at 7:00 p.m. I got an automated call from the school at 8:50 p.m. saying "The ****** High School back-to-school night will be held on Monday at 7:00 p.m."...

Oh, and I got an email from the sales goober at the truck dealership that said "we have a new email address. let us know if there is anything we can do for you."

Heh....that I did...

I am taking practice test after practice test to study for my HAM test on Sunday.

I had a high score earlier today. Haven't been able to get that high of a score since, though.

*sigh* I don't remember the differences among volts, watts, amperes, and ohms... I am sure that PE is gonna tell me as soon as he reads this though. Good thing I can still pass the test without this info.

Classic. *laughing*

BTW, I meant to ask you.....which Wiggles guy did you mention that your wife thought was cute? I'm favoring Greg lately.

I think I'm in need of an intervention here.

She'd hurt you for that. It wasn't her it was her sister's husband's sister...

She though the "yellow one" was "hot."
