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, |
Thanks for the update 2J. They can do some amazing things with prosthetic limbs these days. One of our pastors has an artificial leg and still enjoys running and golfing.
We'll keep Andy in our prayers.
Let us know if there is some more tangible way we can thank/help him.
If it he had to lose the leg, I'm glad it was below the knee. It will make it easier for the prosthetic, I believe. I'm keeping him and his family in my prayers.
Homemade eggnog is *much* better than teh storebought stuff. At least, that is what I hear. I have never tried the store bought stuff. Making it is not difficult. It just takes patience... and 4 eggs, 1/2 cup rum, 1/2 cup bourbon, 2 cups milk, 1 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, vanilla... and you can substitute splenda for the sugar!!! Each serving counts as 1 fat, 1 protein, and 1 dairy.
Back from our neighborhood Christmas walk. Took some pictures. They didn't turn out great, but I'll post a few tomorrow. Me and the Mrs. are gonna watch a movie and wrap Christmas presents.
Did some yard work today. Put in the last of the daffodil bulbs I had. I needed about 2,500 more next year. I'm goin' for this look out back.
Speakin' of which, I got iris and daffodils already coming up.
And, I planned out the space for my square foot garden.
See y'all tomorrow sometime.
Yaaaaaaaaay!! I hope yours is as satisfactory for you as ours was for us. My plan is to e-x-p-a-n-d to a third unit this year. :)
What's gardening, Precious? Nasty snow falling; it freezes, it bites!
'Morning!
I have to plan my garden out and build at least two more planting beds.
Should I watch The Movie again today or should I troubleshoot the 'puter?
But today is church, and possibly Polar Express IMAX 3D. Been putting that off.
We caught some of the featurettes last night. They were just marvelous. The one about the horses was particularly memorable.
I watched some of the bounus disks yesterday..did laundry....watched some basketball.
Good Morning Sam; linseed oil was a good choice, the white woods really need to be sealed well and often. I know the young uns will enjoy the bows.
Thanks for posting the letter; prayers up for Andy and his family.
Morning Hair; great pictures of the horses. Cyn is really looking. The TLC seems to be working. Her coloring is striking in that photo. Ecurb got hisself a great looking horse.
Good Morning OT - Dang, we got some Rosie Cotton type weather today. Gypsy girl's walk was not as long as usual, she didn't seem a bit relucant to head home either.
Watched the director's commentary last night on Disc 1. The question is, do I watch actors disc 1 or directors disc 2 - ah, decisions - decisions.
perhaps another cup of coffee and I'll figure it out.
Morning EGE - snow, a humbug I say. We rarely have a white Christmas around here, which is okay with me, I can put on music and pretend. Beats shoveling and driving in it.
I finally got a snow shovel.
Think I'll make some coffee before deciding what to watch.
Way to go, snow shovels can be our friends. Coffee and the movie, sounds like a good sunday.
Went to my cousin's wedding last night. A VERY pretty wedding and the bride was gorgeous, of course! (The groom is my cousin) Is anyone here Church of Christ, and can they explain to me why they do not use instruments of music in their service? I was told before going that there might not be any music at all, but when we got there, there was an a capella choral group...very nice sounding group, but there are just some pieces of music that NEED instruments, you know? Like "The Wedding Song". I remember that from my folk group days.
Oh well, I have to go.
Morning!
Okay...that's the plan. Coffee, movie, and I'll start up the hot, spiced cider for later on.
