The Hobbit Hole XXXVI - O! Water cold we may pour at need...

Posted on 05/03/2008 8:48:06 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

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!

We had used those two dead flat panel monitors as sign stands right at the turn here into the store. Someone stole them. :~)

Good planning on your part!

Heh...I’m watching Star Trek re-runs. John Locke (from LOST) is ordering Jean Luc around, and not being very nice about it.

He has more hair in the future...

I didn't think it usually worked that way...

I think I found an entertainment center. Not too big, not too expensive.

We have one more episode...the final episode. We’ve finished watching the entire series.

Summer is truly over.

Heh...that’s been a long time ago!

We’re cutting down our large mimosa tree beside our house that used to have the tree fort in it. It’s been in bad health for years, but since the ice storm it’s been dangerous to walk under. The limbs are huge and had rotten spots.

I’ll bet that tree was 100 years old easy. You couldn’t put your arms around the trunk. It just looked ancient. It actually had wrapped around the old rotten trunk of another tree at some point or other. I don’t even think that tree was a mimosa!

This afternoon...4:30.

I can’t have anything but clear liquids from noon on. I don’t know why...maybe the contrast has a habit of making people nauseated?

I don’t know. I’ll ask.

Have you thought about doing an "I'm voting for Sarah" design?

Hope everything goes well with the brain scan, and they don't find anything.

I mean, you know, anything bad. ;-)

They don't want to see half a grilled cheese stuck in your head.

We'll be praying. Keep us posted.

I will...will probably check in tomorrow and at least tell you how it went. By the time I get home today, Steve will be home from work and you know how he is about me getting online when he’s around.

Question...

Do you guys have AT&T? You’re the only guys I have from the Hole from my old cell phone contact list. I have unlimited mobile to mobile if you’re with AT&T. In case I have news of any sort, I could call one of you, but we don’t have very many “anytime” minutes built up yet.

I hope that makes sense...I feel foggy this morning and I don’t want to try more coffee to see if it will help! LOL!

That’s ok...if I ever need to, I can call you after 9pm. I have unlimited nights and weekends too.

What time would that be your time?

Yep, both Rose and I have AT&T, so you can call either of us and the minutes are unlimited. You have Rose's cell phone number, don't you?
