The Hobbit Hole XXV - Fare you well! Fare you well!

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Fare you well! Fare you well!
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! |

But I always thought that was a rather insane thing for him to say right then.
Welcome back Sam!

Don't get sick worryin' yet. - you've got a full month and a half before you should let that happen!
I've got a lot of experience with temp staffing. If you do well at this, they'll have another one waiting for you when you're done. If they find you reliable and the client likes ya, they'll use ya.

Ruthy's still without power. She's worried about being able to get gas.

I just wonder how many temp PC support jobs there can be. But I guess there's nothing I can do tonight.
I'm just terrified of having another long jobless stretch. I can't do that again...this time, I have nothing to live on...and I'm fresh out of houses to sell.
Really, really stinks that I had to blow all that on just living.

Girl, you and me both. Unfortunately, if I get upset about something, I eat MORE! ~sigh~
One man's Prozac is another man's pizza, or ice cream, or beer, or pasta, or cake, or steak...

I'm pretty sure there aren't any ninja in my story either. I can do the toaster, the aloe plant, maybe even the badger.
But no ninjas.

I don't have ninjas, either.
I vote we banish 'em somewhere. A glass mountain or something.

They are repowering tens of thousands at a time, betting that she'll get power soon.

Maybe you can convince them in the mean-time to widen your profile of jobs they'll send you on.
You've got a couple months.... All you have to decide is what to do with the time that was given to you. :~D

When we were first married, wife got a job thru a temp agency and ended up staying with the company for three years. She was hired away by another company when she wasn't even looking.

She's worried about being able to get gas. Hey g'nad, looks like Ruthy might need us in Florida...
