The Hobbit Hole XXX - Then world behind and home ahead...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 06/28/2006 10:14:11 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Then world behind and home ahead

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!

Grr....this person contacted Steve and left a message on his voicemail at work. He couldn't call her back because he was at work and couldn't make a long distance call and I wasn't home to approve a (is it a third party call?) So he got home and called and left a message on her voice mail. Left a message twice and couldn't get in touch with her. No return call. Grrr! So frustrating.

Got him one of these.

Mornin' folks.

Woke up late and had to scurry to get on a conference call that was set for 9:30am EST. Yikes!

Did I miss anything? ;-)

Rundown:

2J's headache is better - no longer festering.

Corin may be going to New Orleans in November.

And I'm a blockhead. Err...thick-headed. Or something.

At least I don't have two screennames, though.

Thanks for catching me up, Rosie.

I saw that thread and was >this< close to asking him if he'd ever been to Nepal. :-)

Festering is such a nasty word.

Sorry, didn't mean to gross you out!! You have to admit, though, that it is an apt description of what's going on up there in one's head....

I'm staying off that thread, this time. As one poster so aptly put it "There's more baggage on this thread than on the QE2".

I feel sorry for some of the guys on that thread, I really do. They remind me of Gypsy the first night we got her. Even though she was stretched out, supposedly asleep, her breathing was very quick and shallow; she was on "high alert" for any danger. Same way with these people. They are on "high alert" for any slight, any hurt, any cross word, that will validate their assumptions. And, unlike Gypsy, they will, most likely, find what they are looking for. (oops, the sentence ends in a preposition)

It's #289 on "the" thread. They sound like a perfectly matched couple.

Ah, yes. I've seen him around before. They do sound like a very nice couple.

For some reason, this made me think of you.

Saw a bumper sticker on the way in. It said:

Conserve Water
Drink Wine

Actually around there they say "Conserve Water: Drink Virginia Wine."
