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

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! |

what a labrador-poodle mix would look like I met one once while I had the kids at the park. It was just a bit larger than a pure lab, with thick wavy curls. Other than that, it looked just like our black lab.

heh, I didn't buy anything for Valentines day. It's too close to payday and we're out o' money until tomorrow.
on the flip side, I, ahem, poured an entire box of potato flakes down the drain. We are in the midst of finding just where the mashed potatoes have stopped up the pipes.

I am thinking about doing something like that, actually. I still have to decide if we can afford new as opposed to used. If we get new, then it will most likely be a Saturn Relay. If us, then I have no idea. We have considered everything from Escape to Epedition with a bit of VUE and Tahoe in between, hehe.

You know, I really like my dishes (imagine that). I bought them when I was stationed at Fort Gordon from a place called Reading China. I was able to buy open stock, so I could pick and choose how many pieces I wanted the settings to be. Got the dishes before elf-boy was born, and since then only once has one of them broken. Even then it was only a chip, but it was sharp enough of a chip that I felt uncomfortable keeping the bowl.
I bought place settings for four: cups/saucers, cereal bowls, soup bowls, dessert plates, salad plates, dinner plates, and one large serving platter.

Yer welcome.
~sigh~ I'm a romantical dwarf I yam.
Wife has a late class on Mondays, so I came home, lit the candles in the fireplace (conveniently still red from Christmas). Put some hearts on the windows (those plastic clingy things we'd had up in the office).
Set the table with red napkins and candles.
Gots the Carpenters playin' in the background.
I'm even wearin' a red shirt and my red power shoooooooooes...the rest is none of yer business...
Only problem is there's no dinner...;-)
Actually, I just called the Chinese restaurant and she'll be picking it up on her way by.
It'd be nice, 'cept she's gonna have to tend to Nana's brace as soon as she walks in, and we've got to feed the boys and get Luke to bed, and she's prolly got a full evening of school work to do...
There's wine chillin', but not likely to be opened.
Still, all in all, I done good.

I'm putting some more stain on the door frame and then having a pint while watching the last of Olivier's Henry V with a pint.
To: Overtaxed
Exhausted... I need a drink but in a minute I'm headed to a homework session. Argh. Today's lecture went twenty minutes late, I just shelled out twelve bucks for medicine, and I feel like crap.
I'm trying really hard to ignore the fact that it's Valentine's Day, of course.

Evening Rosie - you may want to check the owners manual for carrying capacity of your roof racks. Sometimes they have a metal tag or engraving that says something like 'roof rack capacity X lbs.'

Evening - that is the micro-bus like LSA and two of her four sisters learned to drive in.
To: SuziQ
Here I 've been talking about how we don't do much for Valentine's Day, and the UPS man brings me a Pro Flowers box. It's a dozen and a half long stemmed roses in four different colors! They're gorgeous!Somehow I missed this last time around!
How sweet is that?
