New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red, |

Still round the corner there may wait |

Home is behind, the world ahead, |
Oh dear. Prayers up.
Hang in there... :-)

G'nad and I were just sitting here and reading your post...you know you are in our thoughts and prayers and we're so glad you're there with him.
Keep us posted and any specific prayer requests...
...some watery tart handin' out swords is no basis for a system of government! :-)
I will.
He's facing a rapid decline in health due to an undiscovered (until last night) and virulent strain of cancer.
He was out happily grocery shopping on Sunday and tonight he does not know what year it is.
The only indication anything was wrong was his complaint of a constant pain on his lower back towards one side.
Needless to say, my family has been taken by complete surprise and are still trying to sort out how to take all of this in.
He's finally talking again, but has very little lucidity.
*sigh*
I just wanted to let you all know what was going on because you're the bestest friends I've got.
PLEASE don't let this ruin the mood of the thread. Happiness is in short supply in my neck of the woods right now and I'd hope to always find a smile and laugh in here!
And THAT is exactly the kind of laugh I needed. *grin*
look, if I went around saying I was the Emperor, cuz some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away...
Well... it could be worse... could be rainin'...
:-)
Hang in there Miss Ruthy... We all just love ya ta hell and we'll follow ya there if'n we gotta. :-)
~snicker~
I love that scene!
It's been pouring all day! LOL!!
All kiddin' aside, I love ya all right back. It's so wonderful knowing that no matter how bad some days are, I'm always so glad to have the Hobbit Hole.
I just didn't want to come in and ruin the fun atmosphere of the Hole tonight, but felt like a fraud by not coming right out and telling you all what's going on.
I'm just not up to pretending in front of folks I care about and trust, ya know?
Hey... I've killed the fun atmosphere time after time... but apparently only by showing up. :-)
It could be worse. Somehow. :-)
I know it.
Well, I'm exhaustedand it's after 1am here, so I'm off to bed.
See you all in the morning!
And thank you. You guys are a real blessing.
Nite niters... :-)
Or at least see some pics of 2J on the jumper.
I didn't know about the jumper either. :-(
Next we'll probly find out that the live entertainment is The Rolling Stones, playing on a flatbed truck in the south forty.... [sigh]
That pic of the kids sparring is great. Love the pictures everyone! Glad you are havin' a good ole time!
So sorry Ruthy. Our prayers are with you.
We went tonight to the Lipizzaner exhibition. Had a great time. Took a lot of pictures.
