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!

Well... I'm back.

It was fairly nerve-wracking, but overall went well. I will know on Monday or Tuesday.

We got a septic guy coming to check our system now. Gotta go get ready.

Don't you got that backwards? You were supposed to get ready for the interview.

What do you do to "get ready" for the septic guy?

See if we can clog it up and repeat the problem?

Naw... just pick up a bit in case he wants to ~see~ the toilet in action.

It ain't as bad as having to tidy up for ~Western Trailer Living Magazine~

True...but I got a lot of new things-I-kinda-know-about to add...

It shouldn't be horribly hard. Cover letters, on the other hand...*shudder* Hate those.
