Eleventh Thread: Wedding Edition: The Hobbit Hole XI - No One Admitted Except on Wedding Business!
New verse:
Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
300wm - can't hardly believe the numbers of HH knives you have shipped, it is truly a good thing you are doing, FRiend. T
Evening Hair; thanks for the heads up but afeared I will have to forgo till I get the discs. Only a few weeks to go. Yesssss.
hehehe.... maybe we should complement the knife project with a "longbow" project.
Think of the fits da bad guys in Iraq would be havin' if suddenly they start findin' their terrorist buddies layin' in the street with arrows through-em. :-)
Now *there* is some psy-ops worth writin' home about...
Evening OT, glad to hear you're back, Miss Kitty is purring, and you're knocking back an Egg Nogg. Tis the Season.
Evening Ramius. Well, at my current production rate, it would take awhile for supply to meet demand. Still pining a miscreant to a wall with a cloth-yard shaft has a certain appeal to it. Yes it does.
*laughing*
No! Actually, I hadn't gotten that far yet. ;-D
I've just gotten to M& My Bug" and you said you'd only read a book like that if she wrote it. LOL!!
And I'm still enjoying the picture of Fatty and her itchy fanny!
Oh goodness you are behind!
Did you see him in Moulin Rouge? It was a hilarious part. My kids saw Van Helsing, and said he played a monk or friar or something in that movie. It's coming up on Netflix, so I'll see it in a few weeks.
Do look into "The Well Trained Mind". Though we didn't follow it all that closely, I love their use of real books and reference materials as opposed to textbooks for history, geography, art history, music history, literature, etc. Check out TRISMS, too. It is a curriculum already set up, but follows the time frame of TWTM. What grade is your daughter in? TRISMS is designed to start at the middle school level, with History Makers being the curriculum for grades 7 & 8. They have a four year curriculum for high school that builds on the research and writing skills learned in the middle school program. They are both secular programs, but I like that as opposed to a more limited view. We added the religious instruction with books from Ignatius Press and service in the Parish.
Hmmm... though I suppose maybe a long bow might be unwieldy. Might have to fall back on a shorter compound variety. Spec ops guys might like it.
[thhwip] [thud]
It would scare the everlovin' crap outta them. :-)
I tried to tell ya!
Almost to 4300 now, so hope is in sight!
BTW, electric fencing may be needed for Alyson soon. She likes to run around the house at night and turn the lights on. Grrrr....
Ghost Soldiers, indeed.
Egg Nog knocked back and followed with a hot cider chaser.
Look up "invisible fence" collars. Might work. :-)
Hello...
Sheesh, I was not sure I'd get home today! The roads are frozen. Black ice or slush everywhere. How can this be Colorado?
Someone in one of my classes died over Thanksgiving. The pathetic thing is no one is quite sure who it was. I hope it wasn't who I think it was, since I liked him.
Heck.... if turning on lights is the problem, install copper light switches.
Hmmmm....looks interesting.....
I cannot wait for Alyson to get through the Terrible Twos.
Although she does do the cutest things at this age, I just can't take the drama every time she doesn't get her way. *sigh*
"don't tick us off... or we'll sic the Sioux on ya...
I'd suspect it's the guy still sitting in the same place as he was last week.
forgive me!
Um....sounds shocking!
Turning on lights is annoying, but bearable.
The tantrums are the absolute worst. And my mom spoils her so bad that nothing I do can really undo much.
I'm seriously working on streamlining the budget to get Aly in day care starting next year. She has absolutely no discipline during the day and it's starting to create disagreements with me and my mother.
I don't always want to be the bad mommy who comes home and is constantly saying "no!" That sucks.
