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!

ARRRGH!!! The plumber's here; the faucets I picked out will not work, they are the standard big-box fare, so naturally, they are relatively cheap-a** faucets with a heretofore unnoticed plastic drain that my plumber's assure me will break at the first bumpage. I've ordered new brand-name (non cheap-a**) faucets, they'll be in Monday. The saga continues...

Lead into mold? Eww.

Experiments involving the dead are usually really, really bad ideas. You tend to die horribly, or get mutilated, or damned to hell, or something.

You don't have to listen to what "they" say, honey, but you do have to listen to what I say... and I say no experiments with the dead inside the house.
I have been trying to get some packing done which is why I haven't actually been emailing you, heh, but FR is distracting.

They be in Monday, and the plumber has semi-promised to back to put them in Monday. We'll see. On the bright side, I can now get the bathroom walls and ceiling finished without subjecting anyone else to the VOC's.

So it works out kinda okay, then.

I just finished putting up some fencing around the greens to keep the wabbits out. I doubt it is squirrel-proof but it should be wabbit proof.

my fennel is putting out fennelly foliage now. Woo Hoo!

Kitchen nearly cleaned out, almost ready to be actually cleaned. My goal is to be 99% packed by Thursday night so I can spend Friday cleaning and running any errands I need to do.

Heh, I'm moving Saturday. Done with schoolwork tomorrow, I should start my internship... not sure when, but most likely in about two weeks.

I haven't been in panic mode because I don't have the amount of stuff Ruthy or Bear and Rose have. Talon gets to look after it for me all summer.

So if I say Talon and I have plans to spend our upcoming smoochmoot rearranging furniture and shelving books, can you make a snarky comment about that?

unfortunately this time we've got serious chaperonage. Wish it was my easily bribable sister and not my moderately reliable sister.
