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!

Thank you for your prayers...they mean a lot to us...we know God is listening.

G’nad has been very strong...he’s not doubted in God’s love, care, and provision since day one. Our pastor calls him his Barnabas.

The rear sight moves side to side and up and down.

You should be less timid, you’re a smart gal and shouldn’t doubt yourself.

If you squint your eyes at this pic, you'll get a sense of what the tree will look like:

Did you ever know that you're my hero?

Lil’freeper’s already there but: Best Amazon Sale Item Page Ever Thread.

The Amazon ad itself is a scream. Or rather the commentary. The product itself is quite useful and legit.

I do need a known radioactive source so I can calibrate the radiation monitor I "liberated" from an old stockroom years ago.

We hope to get our tree up tomorrow morning. On show weekends with four shows on Saturday and two on Sunday, we don’t make it to church. (kinda ironic, ain’t it?)

That’s all dependent, of course, on the hope that today’s four shows don’t kill me. I need a better attitude to get through this, but I can’t seem to find it.

Morning Corin, OT, G’nad, ALL -

Corin - Sounds like you need a countdown tagline on how many shows you have left. :-)

OT & G’nad - looks like the ‘lite wintery mix is mostly rain, the “I”, “Sn”, “Sl” is to our north. Gypsy seems remarkedly uninterested in spending any quality time outside today. (which, is subject to change at a moment’s notice). Annie has staked out her place on the radiator cover.
