The Hobbit Hole XIV - Hill and Water Under Sky
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 08/05/2004 5:47:31 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Hill and water under sky

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!

It means that tomorrow half of FreeRepublic will be lost... and most of them will be angry, even those with digital watches.

Heh, I balanced my checkbook today, too. Well... all right. I compared the numbers I've been entering in my Excel spreadsheet (what? Calculate manually?) to the bank website records. Everything matched. Guess that means I'm ok, huh?

On the other hand, if I make a mistake, I can only blame myself.

I can't do it...just can't do the bills. I get so upset and anxious.

I let Steve do it.

I'd love to stay folks, but I got to get to bed! Tomorrow is Friday though, so I can stay up later. :-)

Nighty night!

No, it was "Hmm, the check I was expecting didn't come today, can I do my shopping tomorrow on what's in checking or do I need to transfer from savings" night, personally.

My bills are few enough I'll probably spend ten minutes once a week making sure my records match the bank's, and that's it.

Now... I think I'm going to start looking at plane tickets. Mom made me call today home today and it reminded me there's not as far to Christmas as one might think.

Did you understand what I was trying to tell you apparently happened with my email? I know they were doing some work on the email server part of my ISP a while back...and it was about that time that my OE quit working.
