Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Sand and Stone and Pool and Dell...
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! |

and all the children are above average. Heh...Jr. saw a new Mustang in the parking lot at themall last night.
He said, "Buy me one of those and I'll make straight A's."
I said, "Make straight A's for the next two years and I'll buy you one for graduation."
...I don't think either of us are too worried about that.

My wife got one about 6 months ago.
It is so nice that if someone promised me one in exchange for good grades.....I'd bust a gut trying.
Nice car!

Finally got ahold of the Health Department.
They say I need my Dip-Tet. CDC Hurricanes | Interim Immunization Recommendations for Emergency Responders: Hurricane Katrina
They say HepB only if working with "patients". I won't be working with "patients" in that I won't have medical contact, only casual contact. I don't think I need that. What do you think 2J?
I think it would make more sense to get a flu shot, being in an environment with that many people, but of course those aren't even available right now.

I agree. If you aren't working with patients, you don't need the HepB.
What are you doing?

Glad you don't hafta get the typhoid one. Maybe things have changed since I last got a typhoid shot, but it was *not* a fun experience. The shot itself wasn't horribly painful, but it made me sicker than any shot I've ever had before or since.
Heh...most of my tech training class was going overseas, and we all got the shot the same day. The poor instructor didn't know what to think...had about two healthy students and the rest of us got hit with symptoms about halfway through the day and were just wretched.

I might be heading to Houston (or one of the other big evac sites) to help with a big emergency voicemail system down there for refugees to use.
I also might not have to go. It's still all up in the air who and what is needed and where.

Do you think you'll go ahead and get the shot(s) as a precaution, or wait till you have a better feel for whether or not you'll be going?

I'd say the tetnus booster is a good idea... given your neighbors and all that. ;)

LOL - So there's that :~D

Well, you know, when you're talking to someone at the health dept... they say "even if you don't go to Houston you gotta have your Dip-Tet"
