The Hobbit Hole XVIII - Though we pass them by today...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Posted on 12/20/2004 9:01:36 AM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Though we pass them by today...

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!

The one that debuted last night is actually the first season; the earlier show was a 4-hour miniseries. I don't have the miniseries yet, but I will. SciFi is re-showing it on Sunday, and I'll be recording it. Will make you a copy!

Good morning all, have to take Rose to work, back later...

It's off to the workplace I go...to pick up yesterday's paycheck an commisserate with those who must work Saturday...

Then to two banks, to
(a) deposit the paycheck,
(2) find out 'zackly how much my car payoff is (less than $200) and
(b) pay it!

I have a license plate frame I bought for a $250 '73 Torino in 1988-- "Don't Laugh, It's Paid For". Since then it has been on three other cars. It will be bolted onto my '97 Sunfire soon.

'Morning!

I thought about taking the car for servicing but since it's 12 degrees outside I decided againste it. It's mid 30's in my garage. So I guess I'll just do the flylady thing today. Then maybe I'll stare at my pictures and decide where to hang them.

Baby's name is Megan.

She is very cute, and growing fast. It's a little unfamiliar to see Sonya and Tim running around trying to manage life with one of them always holding the baby.


Good morning everyone!

Congrats on Sam's returning to the house! I wouldn't dare let Gypsy (or Samantha either) off-leash in the front yard.

Morning OT - yup, it's 'brisk' out there, just got back from getting the Highlander serviced. Drove it around a bit to get it warmed up thoroughly so the oil will flow out. Visited a bit and it was done. I was impressed.

Morning - pay 'em off and drive 'em till they don't drive no more. Good way to handle a continually depreciating asset. btw, thanks for breakfast.

Lurking on this thread last week inspired me to begin to decrap my house today.

For those of you who were discussing domestic decrapping, I say, Thank-you.

Megan! That's right!

Got an e-mail from my big brother last night. His newest granddaughter, Madelynn Diane, is coming home from the hospital today! She was born Oct. 17th, at 26 wks, weighing 1 lb. 7 oz. She's now at 4 1/2 pounds and is doing great! They are so thrilled to finally bring her home.

Thanks, everyone, for your prayers.

OT-don't feel guilty, there is a weekend every 4 or 5 days or so. Guess I shouldn't mention that it's clean now as well. :-)

At least mine is relatively clean. Maybe I'll take it first thing next Saturday....if it isn't too cold!

Morning everyone.

So, Osage, do you make your own strings, I guess? :-)
