The Hobbit Hole XIX - Tomorrow we may come this way...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Posted on 01/27/2005 9:59:05 AM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Tomorrow we may come this way...

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!

LOL! It's just a metal pole barn! We sealed it up good and insulated it, hung drywall and hung that dropped down ceiling. There's ten of those lights in the ceiling! We did it ourselves!

It's carpeted on one side (where the furniture is) and has painted concrete on the side you drive in to (through a big sliding door access.)

It's got a gas stove, which is good, but we've been using space heaters for now. It also has that old-timey window unit AC. It does just fine!

It was so warm in there that the boys complained and took off their sweats. Steve and I had to occasionally lay down on the concrete floor, which was cold...which is why we're bundled up and the jedis aren't.

I hate it when I get a blown nose. They are so messy to replace.

Heh...just would usually say "blowin' her nose", not "blowin' nose".

Sorry...for some reason it made me laugh! ;-)

This is "N" week at pre-school. Do you have any idea how far down I had to scroll on the Google hits to get an acceptable picture of a nose?

And use your imagination for "nuts"...

I agree, there needs to be a pronoun specified in that phrase or it's too weird.

Darn! I wish I'd thought of that last night! He had to take the pictures today.

Next week is "P" week.

He has a word for that...

Or "nostril" - two words for the price of one! If nostril isn't too big a word...
