Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
And there are many paths to tread
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! |

OK! I finally decided to mess with my yahoo account and set up some hosting space. Trying it out as a blog for the time being:

There will be ~no~ new dog.
Heh...I got two outside mats and two rugs for the doors. He's adopted the rug by the back door.

Every dog deserves his own rug...
A rug of his own, someplace where a weary dog can curl up and rest, a place that he call his own...
To: 2Jedismom
Yup, right chilly here too. We dodged the ice thing.
To: g'nad
Hmm. sounds like you did the right thing. There's other chances to make the right deal.
To: osagebowman
Hmmmm.....now that Quin Snyder is gone, I can pull for Missouri.
To: HairOfTheDog
That little maneuver ain't something us old folk should try ;~DPutting my socks on today brought a quick stab of pain. But I hope things get better over the next couple of days. As long as I don't have to twist myself like a pretzel again for a while.
To: Overtaxed
Yeah - she's over there just going over the bad spots again, but we got it all done... the water that was coming up pretty dirty the first time around is coming up pretty clean now.
Cleanup action shots ;~D

Good!
I was wondering if the carpet cleaner thingy would pull out tufts of carpet pile.
Have TheCats had a chance to check the new place out yet?
To: Overtaxed
Yeah. it did pull up a lot of carpet fiber, particularly in the other rooms that are much older and/or cheaper carpet. But the carpet that's left is cleaner :~D

Hmmmm....did it leave bare spots? Guess you could always put furniture or area rugs over them.
To: Ramius
Vey nice! Welcome to the blogosphere.
BTW... I still have some server space I can provide for ya, if you ever outgrow what Yahoo offers.

To: Overtaxed
No no - nothing like bare spots... just little bit of carpet fibers in the water.

a place that he call his own... I worked for a candidate once and the slogan was "**** for Congress. A Congressman We Can Call Our Own."
We decided we lost because there were too many words on the bumper sticker.
I'm seeing a dog bed in the future for our office...

Doesn't look too bad. That paneling isn't that dark. The first house we bought had dark walnut paneling in the den. When we tore it off the walls, and were down to the bare sheetrock, the place looked half again as big!
