Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Mawwage is what bwings us togethew today!
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! |

Well, I'm also wondering how the video thing got the sister pregnant.
To: HairOfTheDog
Hah!
My older sister is having a virtual baby shower using video chat. Clearly the baby is less virtual.

I looked a little like this I think :~)You were dressed in a long white evening gown? That must have elicited some interesting looks along the road!

Good news on the car front... it's just a little leak in a hose, not very $$ to fix.

Got the windows primed this afternoon.
I tried to get a closer look at the wood behind the weatherstripping. What I could see didn't look rotted. The metal weatherstripping has ridges in it and the wood behind is ridged to0. I still think I'll use the epoxy resin rot-fix stuff....just to be sure.

Glad about yer car.
On the right coast however, it's just simply wrong that the lawnmower dies on September 18.

Now, see...if you had a reasonable climate, you wouldn't be having to mow anymore. ;-)
To: ecurbh
Oh, good!
And if the place admitted that, presumably they aren't rip-off artists...
Where did you take it?
To: Overtaxed
Sounds a good plan, easier (relatively) to do now, rather than later. Good luck with the epoxy.

Well, are they still running 'end of the season' sales? Get your 2006 model at close out prices? etc. etc. Sorry to hear it, our grass just started growing good again. supposed to be in low 40's tonight.

Heh. GMTA!! Actually the same thing happened to us four or five years ago. We got a really nice Sear's model and it was about $150 off the regular price.

I checked everything I knew to check. Cleaned out the air filter and changed the spark plug. I'll look at it again on Saturday morning, then I'll be off to replace it.

Took it to the Goodyear in Tumwater, next to the McDonald's on Capitol Blvd... Only problem was that they were all closed up when we got there at 5:25, even though they were supposed to be open until 5:30. So now we have go back ~again~ in the morning. Grrrrr.
By the way, don't forget to pick up another air filter for your furnace, size 12x24x1. :)
