The Hobbit Hole XXVII - And there are many paths to tread...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 01/16/2006 6:56:15 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

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!

I know, I know.

I'm just fretting. ;-)

Especially as I don't have any other interviews or such-like lined up right now.

That's easily remedied. Just fire off your resume to a few local recruiting places. :-)

I'm gonna hit a couple of temp places tomorrow, I guess.

But that did me zero good in Fort Collins.

Did I mention I'm good at fretting?

*sigh*

Whole different ballpark now, sis.

No fretting necessary. You'll be working in no time.

No time for fretting.

Ft. Collins was difficult and it was a learning experience. No, the job didn't work out, but you gave it a good try.

Where you are now you already have a larger support system with Hair, ecurbh and Ramius, plus your brother and his family. That's gonna help.

It will, however, involve going to ~the mailbox~ and ~town~.

I still hafta go back and watch the first few seasons, but I've seen all of this season. And I'm hooked, I admit it.

You're right that she'll do fine here... but I understand the stress... still, it'd get in the way for her to have a job already this week... too much still to do!
