The Hobbit Hole XXXV - ...is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

Posted on 01/03/2008 6:35:58 PM PST 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!

Yes. I had already been to the lab and picked up the little brown jug and everything this morning before I ever posted. Started the collection at 0800.

But the patch might just work. BP was 140/90 just a bit ago. Still a tad high but so much better!

Yeah, that’s a lot better. Hope it keeps staying where it should.

I’ll let ‘em put me on chill pills some other day...like when I’m 100 and really just not physically able to shimmy any more.

Wow...the thread was really kilt this afternoon!

I started feeling bad. Not my bp, my sinuses...from having been sick. They make my head hurt terrible, but I can’t take any pain relievers because of the test I’m taking and I can’t take any decongestants at all.

So I laid down for a while and Joshua got a Calvin and Hobbs book and got in bed with me and read. I don’t know how long I slept, but I woke up and he was kissing me on the head...he said I’d been snoring loudly.

What a little sweetie! SirKit tells me that since I got the heart thang taken care of, I haven't been snoring at all! I guess getting my heart back into rhythm, and being able to breathe deeply, really helps!

Took a snow-day my self; too many wrecks too early in the morning. Plenty of comp time available. Need to use before it expires.

Sooo, grabbed a can of .38s, resized, deprimed, quite theraputic. Played with the crimp. Got another of can of 146 grain semi-wad cutters. Lubed but not gas checked. Got the crimp just where I wanted it first time. So the die is set. So, need powder. Since I’m just about out of Unique, will need to get more. (and I was at Cabella’s last night before my night meeting). Too bad Win 296 isn’t interchangeable. :-)

Looks like we’re fixing to get the snowstorm you just had. They’re expecting 2-4 inches tomorrow, and an additional 3 to 6 on Saturday. Oh joy. Well, we have plenty of food and entertainment, stuff to burn in the fireplace, and we don’t need to go anywhere for the next couple of days, so we’re good!
