The Hobbit Hole XIX - Tomorrow we may come this way...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Posted on 01/27/2005 9:59:05 AM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Tomorrow we may come this way...

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!

Something to the effect of: "I can't hear you. I have a banana in my ear!"

Tonight I need to get back into sorting mode - take a really hard look at what I do and do not really *need* to have. Most of the easy sorting is done already, so it's kind of elimination rounds...keep paring away.

Do it the Flylady way. Pretend you're having to pay to move it. What is really WORTH moving?

We're not moving, but I'm using the moving attitude as I go through stuff. Do I really want to keep moving it around while we're remodeling, when I could just move it once to the thrift shop or the trash?

Woo Hoo, Boromir has come to visit! Even if it IS the Bakshi Boromir, he's better than Janet Jackson! ;o)

The books are the hardest thing. Of course most are replaceable, but...still!

And I'm really wishing I could bring my rocking chair - my really good glider. But that ain't gonna happen, nor am I likely to get anything close to what it's worth in a sale. *sniff*

But letting go has to be good for me, I'm thinkin'!

Should get down to a few boxes of books, clothes, and maybe a few dishes. And of course my instruments, but that's a given!

You know...one really GOOD thing about going in April (if I do) is that it won't be so hot that I'll be worrying all the way about the cat and the instruments if we have to stop for twenty minutes at a time or something. Any later in the year and that'll be a concern.

Heh...and after Entmoot, we know that if he has a wardrobe malfunction, he's covered...

Is there no possibility that you could store at least some books at your Dad's?

Heck, you could even pack them for shipping and when you get the cash, send it and say "send box #4."

Just a thought.
