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! |
|

Problem is that the soil is very dead... Then catnip is a good choice. It's not picky in the least.

To: SuziQ
Well, I had two of 'em ending within minutes of each other...lost the first one, won the second. Got Joshuas Spelling 2 TE for half the price of new, including shipping.
I have found, with persistence, I can pretty much do that on ebay. It may take forever and many many attempts, but eventually, I win at my "Half price minus shipping" max bid.
In this case, my max bid was $5.03 and I got it for $2.80. The shipping is outrageous, but still less than half price of new, so I went for it. $7.00 for shipping. Weighted scales, imo.

SirKit has won many bids for $.99, knowing that the shipping will be $10 or $20! He figures he's getting the product dirt cheap, even with the exorbitant shipping. I guess that's how some folks are making any money at all on their stuff.

We turned to see what was up and a Stealth Bomber was flying right over us!! It was awesome, and so nice to see people so excited about seeing it!I've never seen a B2 in real life, but people who have seen one flying says it seems to have an other-worldly quality to it.

That's what I figure too.
As the summer draws to a close and I am going to really need curriculum purchased, I go ahead and just buy it new at Mardels. I figure I'll be able to sell it for half price and still only end up paying half price for it!

just don't have any on hand right at the momentSure you do, just crush up some eggshells and sprinkle them around the tomatoes. It really works :-)LSA
To: osagebowman; Overtaxed
I wonder if a crushed up Tums would do?

It's based just down the road from us; we've seen it a number of times. Probably mentioned it before, but bears repeating today. Working along Highway 13, we heard 'something', turned and saw it above the tree line. We watched it fly directly overhead, and it wasn't all that high either. Simply breathtaking; it doesn't look like anything else.
To: 2Jedismom
Really have no idea on that. Can't say as I've ever heard of that use of tums before.
To: osagebowman
But I'll have to dig them out of the compost thingy first!

Heh...I've given up trying to put eggshells on the compost heap. Cisco *loves* them...so they never stay.
To: RosieCotton
I've got one of those compost bins with the covers. But sometimes I don't wait for the eggshells to decompose completely. So I end up with eggshell fragments in muh top dressing. I guess I should grind them up, huh?

Comcast just installed a new modem. We're back online. Don't have the wireless router hooked up, but I think the card is fried anyway. So there's that.
Thanks for all the birthday wishes.
I'll catch up more tonight.

Yes, prayers for the astronauts.
Time for a new energy source for space travel, though ;-)
