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!
Well they certainly 'adorn' their bodies, though in ways different than most. ;o)
Thanks to global warming today I was able to wash the car and change the furnace filter. Woo Hoo!!
Wasn't it wonderful today!! Miss Gyps got two, count 'em, two walks, so she is one happy puppy!! LSA
Yep, and sunny too! I didn't even have to wear a coat this afternoon.
Too bad today's weather isn't normal. We could get used to it.

Evening.... Are you coming over for AI? - it's on at 8 tonight.
Ooh...OK. What city is it tonight?
San Antonio... Maybe Bear and Rose will be on :~)
At any rate, Texans are frequently colorful characters. ;-) Should be a fun night.
Over in a few minutes...
Oh heavens! Prayers up for his family!
Good morning Hobbit Hole!
It's something like -10 here. Just fyi.
hppf ,ptmomh
LOST tonight.
Has it been an hour already?
Gonna be one of those days I guess. Jen got rear-ended on the way to work. She is fine though. Just some cracks to the rear bumper of her car.
Did she get the info from the perpetrator? Does Iowa have a mandatory liability insurance law?
It was so cold and neither of us had a pen so we exchanged phone numbers. Just got done getting the info from the gal. Gonna have to remember to put a pen in the car now.
My poor bumper... this is my second bumper already, the same sort of thing happened to me a month after I got my car. Snowy day, I stopped, the gal behind me didn't, and I got a new bumper. It's all one big piece of plastic and it cracked...
Too bad the trunk wasn't damaged or I could get the light that was broken this summer fixed too!
They make some kind of accident kit that you can carry in your glove box...it's got everything you need including a camera!
I keep meaning to get one.
I'm glad it wasn't worse!
Me too! But it was very low speed. There's a light on the bridge over the highway, where a lot of people turn left to get on the on ramp, and with the sun glaring off the snow it was very slow and backed up. The light was still green but the intersection was blocked up so I just stopped, I was only going 3 miles an hour anyway, and the gal behind me didn't.
Only us two involved, her fault, minor damage, no big deal. I'll probably have to have my car in the shop for a day or two tops.
