The New Hobbit Hole

[HairOfTheDog]

Oh My - you are ruthless!

Hullo! - Good morning!

[Overtaxed]

I've got the Precious!

[HairOfTheDog]

I know!... and it is making you at least naughty, if not truly evil.

[2Jedismom]

Good morning y'all! Yeah! A new page!

Everyone was quite chatty yesterday.

[HairOfTheDog]

Morning... This hobbit is having a hard time waking up. may go back to bed for a bit... because I can! [yawn]

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Hullo!

Thank you for the welcome!

I'll certainly do my best to fit in, although I don't think I quite qualify as a hobbit... I'm more of a Beorning, I'd say.

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Good Morning!

Just finished second breakfast here (eggs over easy, sausage links, and toast for me, sausage links and fried potato slices for my Rose.) Have been busy already this morning, cleaning out an old car we're donating to the Salvation Army... waiting for the tow truck now.

Planning to get a lot done today, but we'll see...

Hi!

I've been a lurker for several years, going back at least to 1998. FR has long been a first source of news for me... I just never felt like posting my political views. I don't think I quite fit in on the political side.

I feel quite comfortable here in the Hobbit Hole, though.

Don't you have a couple of ponies who need to be tended? One problem with larger domesticated animals is the tending they need, I guess.

Me too... So far no progress. Keep me posted on yours.

While you are here, do you know about all of our other ongoing Tolkien threads? - We have the Green Dragon Inn (book discussion thread), and a new The Two Towers Spy reports and Spoilers thread. Would you like to be pinged to that stuff?

[HairOfTheDog]

Ahh... they are easy... They had breakfast and went out to pasture. Haven't cleaned their stalls yet, if that is what you are getting at ;~D Big pressing source of guilt is actually laundry and weed-whacking (also known as forestry).

That's what my Rose has done, taking a nap while we waited for the tow truck to call... which they just did, so I'll be waking her up in a few minutes. Meanwhile, I've got the checkbook balanced and am preparing to pay bills (shudder.) Will be making a run to the post office to send some packages after we finish with the tow truck.

While you are here, do you know about all of our other ongoing Tolkien threads?

Yes I do, thank you. I'm avoiding the spoiler thread, since I prefer not to be spoiled before seeing a movie, but I would like to be pinged for the Green Dragon Inn, please.

While not required, it always helps if a new poster will buy a round of pints. ;-)

Welcome.

The sneaky dwarf is still asleep.

Ahem! The "sneaky dwarf" was up and gone to a morning workshop at church.

Good day, friends! Finally finished with cleaning the house for Memorial Day - don't ask why, just pitch in and do it....

Hullo and welcome, Bear! Nice to have a newcomer around the place. Hope you join in frequently!

[HairOfTheDog]

Hi there... Just hanging out and not doing much this first day. Have one required trip into town to do, and many things on my "should do" list... but sitting here is working too well for me at the moment. I still have 2.5 days left of the weekend to get stuff done, right?

[JenB]

Must be nice... tomorrow we spend about 5.6 hours at church or traveling there, then Monday I'm working. So, should I stay up or will I collapse in four hours? I'm not taking bets either way.

[HairOfTheDog]

Well, it isn't really gonna nice if I don't get to work on something. I think I have just managed to work up enough guilt to weed-whack the fenceline. I am gonna give it a shot!

I don't think I quite qualify as a hobbit... I'm more of a Beorning, I'd say.

Well Beornings are always welcome. However our resident Man of Gondor (Kevin) isn't particularly thrilled with the way Beornings polka! :)

Didn't mean to ignore anyone, but I got a lot of garden stuff done today...didn't have time to wait for all the sleepy head hobbits to get up.

Nyah, nyah! Sneaky dwarf lost the Precioussss!
