Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
A new road or a secret gate...
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! |

Wednesday, I believe. Then if it's within 2,000 votes and .1% percent (and right now it is), there's an automatic recount.

Yay! Caught up! Only part way through the guilt trip, but I'll finish inflicting that on her tomorrow. It'll make tomorrow's writing easier to start.
And now for some anime...

Heh, they just updated again, and now Dino's behind by 158. At this rate, he should take the lead again on the next update.

Good evening all...
Just wanted to let you know that Steve came home briefly to take Joshua to Spanish and while he was out, he mailed the knife to the chaplain. He went to the new post office, where the postman that works there has three boys in the army.
While he was there, he told the guy he was my husband. The guy told Steve that one of his boys (that got a HH knife) took shrapnel in his leg and is home from Iraq.
One of this guys' boys...

Moving is horrible. Heh...wife's neice won't be having those moving difficulties. I'll s'plain.
She got married when she was 20. Husband, who planned to be a minister said she'd go back to school when he got a good job. Trouble is, he never did. Couldn't keep a job working in a "Blimpies" (sub shop). And in recent years was fired for stealing from the restaurant he was working for. His dad bailed him out.
I think part of his probation was agreeing to get on a financial program, get a smaller place to live etc.
So they put the majority (number I heard was over 90%) of their stuff in storage. He neglected to ever pay the bill, so it was all auctioned off.
She left him today. I hate that for their kids (their daughter is beautiful and smart - haven't figured that one out), but this has got to be the best move for her.

I'm seriously considering at LEAST a mask and safety glasses...
The thing is too, with this habanero powder...it don't wash off!!! I've literally washed my hands with soap (ok, maybe not as good as I coulda, but still, WITH SOAP) and then rubbed my eyes and it's burned me.

I opened the top of the grinder and got hit with the airborne powder in the back of my throat and couldn't hardly breathe for a couple of minutes there. It's gonna taste GREAT on breakfast tacos!!I can't why this stuff is considered food?
