The Hobbit Hole XX - And take the hidden paths that run...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Posted on 03/05/2005 11:51:13 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

And take the hidden paths that run...

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 guy told us to check with the city ordinance and to check our subdivision rules...but that most areas allow you to have just one in the back yard.

Good morning... I had a whole series of very weird dreams last night. There were eggs in the fridge that didn't look right, so I opened them outside, and they had kittens inside, some alive still, a few dead.

That's what ecurbh said... that it was probably 'cuz I must be ovulating or something...

I saved some of the kittens... they were purring. People would tell me it was the chicken farm's fault for letting them get fertilized, but they didn't seem to notice these were ~kittens~, not chicks.

I just whispered a simple prayer "Lord help me find this stupid toy because you know how important it is to him."

I literally looked down and picked it up. I am not making this up.

I believe you implicitly, because the same thing has happened to me. I'd lose some critical gun part, usually a tiny spring or screw, and look all over for it. In desperation, after looking everywhere three times, I'd say a small prayer. Then I look down, and it was right next to my foot, where it could not possibly be after all that searching.

Yep, today's the day!

Don't have time for a long post, but wanted to ask you where you wanted to meet when I get in. I can give ya a call if you want to discuss it that way...just didn't want to call you in the middle of a class or something.

I'll come to the terminal. Are you checking baggage? If I get there before you do I'll be obvious, otherwise I'll look for you at the baggage claim.

If you want to call me, do it right now because I have a meeting in half an hour that might take forever.

I have one bag to check...still figuring out the carry-on side of things as now I have my purse, my laptop and the mandolin.

So...I'll likely see you at baggage claim!

I know it seems a bit silly. But it was very significant to Luke. He would have been crushed if he'd lost that toy.

Take your wallet out of your purse, put it in the laptop bag, put your purse in the suitcase.

I'll have my phone with me if you need to call at the airport (like, I'm not there and it's quarter to 4)

hehehe....

Been a tough couple of weeks for my household, so I've been busier than a cat under a guava tree. :-D

Got quite a number of payrolls today, so I'd better get them out the door.
