The Hobbit Hole XVI - Still round the corner there may wait...
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Still round the corner there may wait...
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! |

Ya know, I've always considered it one of life's cruel ironies that you have to make coffee before having had coffee. Tricksy, it is.

Be prayin' for me...I've sworn off coffee. Again. I am having a horrible time with pressure in my chest. It's not cardiac, they've checked it. Most likely esophogeal spasms (a result of me being just so laid back and relaxed, don't you know. /sarcasm) Anyway, Steve and I actually turned off the TV and discussed it and I thought maybe drinking coffee was making it worse or at least not helping. So I'm gonna try going off it, maybe having a cup of tea now and then to get me through the worst part.
I don't usually tolerate going off coffee well.
To: 2Jedismom
Be praying for ya! Hope you feel better soon...
I saw a new kind of coffee at the store the other day that said it was reduced acidity...supposedly to help people that had trouble with the regular kind. I think it was instant and therefore probably not very good...but I thought the concept was interesting, in any case.

I swore off soda several years back because of the acidity but I never could swear off caffeine. My coffee irony is that I love the stuff be it often makes my stomach slightly annoyed (probably because I drink it black). I get most of my caffeine from very strong hot tea.
To: Corin Stormhands; g'nad; All
Good morning boys, girls, and containers of crap!

I think the coffee just keys me up too much...the caffeine, you know? I dunno. I'm just giving it a shot, see if it'll help take this pressure off my chest.
To: HairOfTheDog; RosieCotton; Corin Stormhands; 2Jedismom; TalonDJ
Mornin'. Mumble, groan... still sleepy. I have a midterm today, no fun.
I can give up coffee easily since I never started, but caffeine itself? No way. I can't get out the door without at least a can beforehand.

I generally alternate between coffee and tea...I'll get obsessed with one or the other for six months or so and then switch back. But I like both...
And tea is convenient at work 'cause I can just keep my desk stashed with all kinda tea bags. Coffee is trickier.

These days, I have one can before leaving. Two if it's a really bad morning. I put a 20-oz bottle in my pack, and unless something odd happens, that's it, after that it's water.
I usually finish the bottle by 11 or so, and am then awake for the day.
