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!
*sob*
They smell purty, too. ;o) I'll contribute $10 as well. Sorry I can't do more right now. I do want to let his wife know that we are thinking of her and remembering her in our prayers.
Well, if you are all the way home, I guess I'd opt for going in early tomorrow instead of tonight.
That pic is hilarious!
If it were me, I'd go in tonight. You may be more of a morning person, though. I'm sure not.
I usually have gone at night, but I'm not firing on all cylinders after about eight, and I can't even start until nine.
*sigh*
I don't want to do either. I don't want to go in again tomorrow, either.
Matthew looks like such a speed demon! It's a good thing it's not road ready quite yet! ;o)
Miss Rose; Thanks for coordinating this, check your freepmail. OB & LSA
Actually, parts of the car look pretty good. There's some serious rust in spots, but a lot of the car seems to have good paint, with good metal underneath.
BTW, I thought y'all would appreciate my shopping success.
I was at the drugstore picking up a prescription. They had all their Christmas stuff on 75% off clearance. I was mainly looking at wrapping paper. ($0.75 for 50 sq. ft. is a great deal).
But they had two 6 ft. "tinsel trees" that you can set up outside. They were originally $29.99, so 75% off was a good deal. But they rang up at only 50% off.
When she went back to check the receipt, she found that I also had about $14.00 in "customer cash" credits (we buy a LOT of prescriptions).
So, basically, I got $60 worth of decoration for the Stormhands Holiday Extravaganza for...free.
g'nite, for some reason I'm wiped out tonight. Gonna get up early when the wife leaves for her meeting in Virginia Beach.
Cool, haven't seen tinsel trees in awhile. Stay healthy, take yer vitamins.
Good going on the trees!
There is indeed, sir. Check your FReepmail.
Now, you check yours.
FReepmail right back ...
Are any of the members planning on attending the funeral or visitation?
I was gonna ask my BIL if he could make the trip, but it's a long, LONG way from the Upper Peninsula to the Lansing area ...
