The Hobbit Hole XXI - ...Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 04/21/2005 6:44:57 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Towards the Moon or to the Sun.

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!

I did see that... kinda annoying, sounds like. Sounds like the sheriff knows them from other nuisance calls.

It's scary when you don't know why they are there or what kind of kids they are. When they started sparring with each other, and throwing the RR tie around, I got too concerned to want to step out and warn them off... drunk kids I understand... kids on amphetamines, I don't trust.

Cyn's still up eating... I'm gonna watch her but I don't think she's colicked... I think she's tired.

RE: punk kids. You are too right, chica. Back in the day, you pretty much knew that you could yell "Shut Up!" out your window and they'd go away.

These days, that could get you killed. Scary stuff!

And I do hope Cyn feels better soon. Maybe you should give her some cafe con leche. *smile*

OK, I think I'm about done with my morning 'space out'. Might actually do some real honest-to-goodness work now.

Hopefully you can take 30 minutes or so to space out again after lunch ;~D

I'm not spacing out. Even if it's a nice day. And a Friday...

I was really productive for a good half an hour, then it just fizzled out.

I'm eating a grilled cheese sandwich and some tomato soup to try to recover some energy. :-D

Sorry Argh!

The company cafeteria isn't that great, but they do make a wickedly good tomato soup!

Lucky you! But actually it was the grilled cheese that got me drooling. Something usually only accomplished by photos of Raquel Welch from 40 years ago, etc. Have a great day!

I'm about to start my day. Lazy bum, I am...but part of it was just that I decided to go out for a coffee.

Now I'm sorting through boxes again. *sigh* I had real reasons for keeping a lot of crap, but I'm a little shaky on what those reasons were for some stuff. And then siblings tucked in a few things, too.

At least I'll have my music books now! Just wish I had the violin things I need, but I can mail order those at some point.

I just read the first 50 posts of that thread, but I need to get serious and get some work done.

I had 3 days worth of work come in on the ONE day I took off.
