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! |

WOW! That's just great! Congratulations!
Looks like that move was Meant To Be. Which means so was your time in Fort Collins. So I can stop feeling vaguely guilty ;-)

So...when would you get word?
To: HairOfTheDog
Really? I only take off mine in the shower or if I'm washing dishes... but then I don't muck out stalls... and I haven't been wearing it long enough to forget to put it back on :-D

Great news! Keeping fingers crossed for you here. ;)
To: HairOfTheDog
One day last week I was running late leaving for work, I took my ring off to wash my hands and forgot to put it back on... my hand felt naked all day. :/
To: JenB
I just don't feel good wearing it cleaning stalls or when doing forestry or gardening... It's vulnerable to get snagged or dirty and I hate to wear gloves... when I do I feel like I'm trying to use someone else's hands. - I just don't have a ring lifestyle.

It's pretty close... Ten minutes.
I'm pretty relieved and pleased too. I was really hoping she'd have better luck here and this would all work out exactly this well!

I can not believe this entire scenario! This whole thing, from the dumped stuff to the job practically in the bag! I am just gobsmacked! LOL!
Ok...so this is what you do, Hair. Next time the F&W guy comes back, you tell him how glad you are that he's trying to clear this up...that you can't believe someone would would pull such a stunt...that Rosie just moved in from out of state and oh! She's Catholic and would he know of a Catholic church with a active singles group? Or does he know anyone who's Catholic and single who might be able to help her out with finding a church?
The "God bless you" is an opening for a Christian to speak openly and because of that, I'm sure he'd be willing to help out!
At this point, since the guy is married and unless God has some other astounding plan (which would not surprise me in the least), the focus should be on finding Rosie a singles group.
