The Hobbit Hole XXIII - Let them go! Let them go!

Posted on 07/12/2005 8:11:36 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Let them go! Let them go!

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!

Heh!

I'm really quite amazed...I've gotten phone calls and emails from friends I didn't know I had, you know? Ladies I knew of, but didn't think they knew of me!

Like I say, everyone pretty well knew Celeste and I were the best of friends...people are being real nice. On the BA CHEF side. Not a word from anybody from the "other" side...

Yeah...it's late.

Can't sleep. Got to reading about that guy that did the chicken freep.

Think I'll go read ahead in Anne of Green Gables and see if I can't relax.

Night!

'Night. Anne of Green Gables is a good book. I bought the series for my mother years ago. Of course, I had to read it first to ~check~ it out. :-)

Good morning!

I wonder what today will hold.

That's great about the AC, Lil...that had to be miserable.

I've decided to eat my afternoon snack instead of my breakfast for breakfast. Dried blueberries mixed with macadamia nuts - vey yummy.

That's right.

Every weekend except for this past one (which was Matthew's birthday and was also when all the crap hit the fan support group-wise), he's working on it. He hasn't come in before 10pm all this week.

You know he doesn't tell me anything, but the way things are ratcheted up right now makes me wonder if things are getting close. He usually comes in around 9pm...

I'm still waiting on my coffee...

The kitty brought the mouse kill up to the porch, and we were trying to get the proud hunter to pose for a picture. When I picked up the mouse to pose him with it, he grabbed it and hucked it right at the camera! It's a mid-air mouse toss!
