The Hobbit Hole XXXII - Sweet is the sound of falling rain
The Freeper Hobbit Hole Blog ^ | December 1, 2006

Posted on 12/01/2006 12:55:15 PM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Sing hey! for the bath at close of day
That washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is anoble thing!

O! Sweet is the sound of falling rain.
and the brook that leaps from hill to plain;
but better than rain or rippling streams
is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

O! Water cold we may pour at need
down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed;
but better is Beer, if drink we lack,
and Water Hot poured down the back.

O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky;
but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!

Prayers everyone for LCS! His brother FRMailed me last night at LCS's request, to let us know he's in the hospital pending surgery. He will be in rehab after for at least a month.

I guess he's been in the hospital since the 8th. He has gotten a lot better according to his brother, and they are looking forward to his recovery. I know all of us will be sending our prayers.

Take it easy today love. This bug isn't fun. The puppies are going to need food by lunchtime. Let me know how you are feeling, I can run home with some puppy chow and dayquil if you need it.

Sleep sounds really nice. My throat is sore this morning, again, and my eyes are not entirely happy. Ugh. Also, my brain does not want to function.

You should post some pictures of those ornaments and the puppies like we were talking about the other day.

Having some coffee here, which I still view as a luxury :~)

g'nad, if I have to bug out to your place, I'll bring it with me, but it makes my go bag a little heavier!

Heh...it could be worse. My sister Margaret was another that would do that throwing herself backwards action when she wanted to be put down. She'd also go rigid if you tried to put her into a high chair or car seat, and you'd have to practically break her to get her in.

One time she wanted out of the high chair instantly, so she used that backwards jerk manuever. She tipped the whole thing over, clipped her head on the edge of the brick platform where the woodstove sits, and ended up needing staples.

That's just one example. She was...never dull, I guess.

Heh...a few years ago she tried to get Dad to say he wouldn't tell stories about her anymore, because every time someone started to tell about some bad or scary thing their kid had done, he'd say, "Well...let me tell you about what *my* daughter did..."

Is that foot surgery? Was that what LCS needed? I'll keep him in my prayers. I hope he keeps us posted.

See, this is why we need the HH contact list like we were saying yesterday.

Well, I'm not exactly sure on the details and I didn't ask, but will if I hear from his brother again. I just know he's been having a rough time of it for some time. Hopefully he'll be back and healthy soon.
