The Hobbit Hole XV - Pass them by! Pass them by!
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 09/02/2004 2:18:28 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Pass them by! Pass them by!

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!

Now I'm going to rummage up something for dessert

You just reminded me! I'm gonna go fix my Ricotta cheese dessert! I put almond extract in the ricotta cheese, a little Splenda and a couple of tablespoons of chopped roasted hazelnuts.

Good stuff, Maynard!

evenin'.... what a day...

thegirl came thru okay... but she has thrown up twice today... think it might be because she's been swallowin' blood, and the pain meds... after the first time, which happened about an hour after we got home, we tried the teabags... seems to help (thanks 2J!)... really cut down the bleeding...

thanks fer yer prayers... thegirl is asleep on a futon in our room...

God bless her. What a brave girl.

She'll feel better tomorrow, I'm sure. Prayers continue for a quick recovery.

Well, that's why I figured it wasn't a spoiler. ;P Although it was a surprise to us, since we taped but haven't watched the previous two episodes...

You're watching out of order? Horror!

Plus you missed one of my favorite eliminations so far - I've been rooting against the twins for weeks.
