The Hobbit Hole XXIX - Until the stars are all alight...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 04/20/2006 2:10:46 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Until the stars are all alight

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!

Hey, y'all, we're around, but kinda gone into lurk mode until we get this move over with. It's stressing us both out.

In additional news, had to put the car in the shop this morning to replace the battery and battery cable ($312, ka-ching).

I just gave Pippin a bug hug, and he purrrrred :~D

I'm just so glad he wasn't eaten yesterday. He's such a sweet and affectionate cat. We'd have been left with the old grouch and the tweeking amphetocat.

Yeah - call them.... would they fit in your van?

The solid wood coffee table has potential, can be refinished if you ever wanted to... the faux wood end table thingy is soooo 70s... It's perfect for the place :~D

You need to paint big bright ugly flowers on those to go with the rest of the theme.

Nothin' a little day-glo orange paint wouldn't fix...

Grab them tables, chica!

I think my mom had an end table just like that when I was growing up. :-)
