The Hobbit Hole XXXIV - But better than rain or rippling streams...

Posted on 08/07/2007 7:52:15 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Sing hey! for the bath at close of day
That washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is anoble thing!

O! Sweet is the sound of falling rain.
and the brook that leaps from hill to plain;
but better than rain or rippling streams
is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

O! Water cold we may pour at need
down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed;
but better is Beer, if drink we lack,
and Water Hot poured down the back.

O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky;
but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!

Welcome back.

We're still under siege from house guests. Alas.

Thanks for keeping us in the circle. Our family thinks on you guys often. Mebbe you can market your diet and make a bundle. Infomercials and stuff.

Hey! See if you can score me some strips! Pre and post cardioversion!

I’m starting a collection.

Best wishes! Keep me posted!

I’m home from work. Only one more day of day shift orientation, then I have the weekend off then I have a week of evening shift orientation. Then I’m off orientation and will cut down to my usual schedule of 2 or 3 evening shifts a week. Tell all your nurses I said HI and to take good care of you!

Well, that is certainly a first for the HH. I think you take the lead on ‘Christmas-can you top this?’

Prayers up. OB & LSA

My neighbors haven’t been home since the ice storm. The ice tore the weather head (where their electricity comes in to their house) from their house and they’re waiting for an electrician to fix it. They moved clean out.

Our neighbors did that back in 2002. We stayed put. OT did the same back home. Stubborn I guess. OB

Well I made a trip to the house once to do laundry, came back to wait for the electrician guy to put up a new box.

Kitties and wool afghans will keep you nice and toasty.
