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! |

Good morning!
Well, it's official. Alyson starts daycare on Monday. ~sigh~
In other news, we may be moving to the Tampa area. Turns out that my mom doesn't want me to leave her, so she is willing to sell the house, relocate to the Tampa area and use the equity from the sale to buy a house in full.
I agreed that if we don't have a mortgage to worry about, I don't mind if she stays home. Salaries are equal (if not better) in that area than they are here in Miami, so I'm not worried about making enough to cover utilities and schools.
And I've had 2 of my clients tell me that if I'm ever looking for work in that area, to look them up first. And they said this to me months ago before the move was even a possibility.
The best part is that I will actually be able to finally save some money and eventually purchase my own home. One with acreage. And a barn. ;-D
Lots of horse farms in that area. *happy dance*

I'm really excited about the opportunity to save some money and start planning a future that can actually be acheived.
And speaking of planning futures....
Happy SmoochMoot anniversary, you two!

Wow...takes so few words to mention it, but that's a lot to say, Ruthy. Hope it's the beginning of something wonderful for you. You deserve better than what you've been dealing with lately.

Good morning!
Having coffee and breakfast and trying not to worry about how many ways I could get lost and run outta gas on the way to the interview in a coupla hours. ;-)
I wonder if ANY gas stations take checks, or if I'd be completely out of luck until I could get a ride if that were to happen.
