The Hobbit Hole XIII - Let them pass! Let them pass!
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 07/13/2004 9:49:23 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Let them pass! Let them pass!
(Note to dwarves, this is only meant figuratively)

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!

I just got an email from the soldier that wneighbor and I met in the airport!

2J this is just the best news I've had all week. I am thrilled that you heard from her! If you write back would you please tell her I said hello? And that I'm sending a hug? And tell her if she ever wants a tour of Texas - I'm her hostess!

WN - Praying for Benny and for your safe trip to be by his side.

Thanks Ruthy. If he gets better - you prolly won't hear from me. If it's bad or worse and I need a shoulder - your phone will ring.

Use the vodka instead of the whiskey and see if that works... if you really need something later to help.

I usually gargle using warm water with salt or baking soda for that. Here's some links with some directions and other methods using stuff you might have around the house:

Sore Throat: 27 Ways to Put Out the Fire

Remedies For Coughs And Sore Throat

Hope you feel better soon!

"Unfortunately I twisted the snot out of my bad knee when I stepped on the stage. I kin hardly walk on it..."

Did you order any of the stuff from the site I showed you before? That'll help with any swelling from that.

Sorry, I'm not that desperate, and I've got nausea. Maybe one of the other remedies - but I'd rather use WN's vodka recipe, than gargle with salt.

Besides, the Amoxocil should start working today, and I'm on lots of ibuprofin. It's just a really good excuse to eat ice cream. If my stomach settles down, that is.

Jen, the trip to Colorado was a trip to visit and hang out with my friend Benny's family. I know now that his nephew & wife that we were gonna stay with are on their way down here as I type. I'm not sure how this will reflect on my friend Marty and I going up to Colorado.

Marty and I already talked last night that it would be later than originally planned if we go at all. So, I will say of variation a what 2J says: Expect me if you hear from me.

Marty's sister lives in Denver. If we get to Colorado and get to Denver I will know in advance and give you notice. I have your cell phone number packed.

The thing is, if you don't like the taste of my concoction you can just sip it slowly through the day.

This is a variation of what I used to give my kids. Only you don't like warm drinks and for them I put all that in an equal amount of warm tea. I just left out the 1 part tea for you. For the kids I just made sure there was enough honey to make it palatable for them. You can't have too much honey if you need more in there.
