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!

Did you find a good place?

Yes... but when we called them this morning they didn't have any apartments available in the size that we wanted. So, we're probably going to go with another, nicer, more expensive place...

Oh, well... as long as it works out for you guys. I'm sure it's very stressful though.

Oh hey! A new hole! Thanks for the ping Love.

I trust you all are keeping the Precious from getting lonely. I am trying to get more done at work, and since I do 99.5% of my freeping at work... heh. Yeah I am pulling the 'Corin Maneuver'

You need someone to kick you out of bed in the morning, I think.

Its amazing really that the last post went through. Bittygirl unplugged my laptop as I hit post. It didn't go to back up because I took out the battery for fear it would burn up.

Have you been getting a workout with the Doggie Ping list today or what! I come in from playing in the dirt and there are two doggie pings, and not the cute or funny kind either.

Those dogs were obviously so well loved, and then I look out my side window and see four neglected dogs and look out my back window and see three more, and I just want to scream at both sets of neighbors for being such complete and total jerks.

I rather wonder if the coffee stand folks think the same about my dog. *sigh*

Though he's pretty much with me every waking moment when I'm *not* at work.
