The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!
Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog
Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Journey to the Cross-roads
The Two Towers Edition
Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)
Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

Furnaces out is a bad thing - very expensive! - So - you have anything I would want to buy? - I'd help y'out.
To: Corin Stormhands
Dead furnace = not good. My furnace died two years ago... put it on home equity line of credit.

Plink plink plink. I hate that stuff!
To: Overtaxed
If you had duct tape on the windows.... perhaps you wouldn't hear it.
To: HairOfTheDog; Overtaxed
So - you have anything I would want to buy? How 'bout one big black dog. Slightly used. ;-)
I'm hoping they may just need to clean out a line or something. But this furnace is the original with the house so it's about 27 years old. We replaced the air conditioner a few years back.
But, we've got someone on the way now.
To: Corin Stormhands
You can't sell the dog... He loves you more than he is worth!
To: Corin Stormhands
But, we've got someone on the way now. I hope he brings duct tape.
To: Corin Stormhands; HairOfTheDog
Hehehe....when I called
the man he told me the old one wasn't worth fixing.
Plop plop plop
To: Corin Stormhands
The oil furnace at the beach house is probably older than that, and it is a gem... Have hope, Master dwarf.
To: Overtaxed
They always say that, don't they?

Well...not always. I'd had it fixed a few times before and the thing was old anyway. True, it could have been designed better (so the man said) but then I wasn't the one who chose it in the first place.
To: JenB
Ooh! The deck is white. Sleet!
Well it's better than freezing rain

"Maybe God gave President Bush the idea, and then he gave it to you!"Give that boy a big kiss!! I know Dubya would!
We've got all the food downstairs that we need. Since the kids are home all day, we don't have the problem of being separated and worrying about how to get to them. That would be the worst for me! SSQ's workplace is only 5 mins. away, so that's good too!
So we're as ready as we'll ever be!
To: 2Jedismom
The snow here is falling sideways, the wind is blowing so strong. We're going to plan on it being a BIG snowstorm, just in case. We'll just get some extra milk and eggs today, and we'll be fine!
To: Overtaxed
WOW! 15 inches on the ground out back-

Brrrrrrr!

To: Overtaxed
I tried to make a snowball while hubby was working on the camera settings. Dumb stuff is too dry and flakey- won't stick together. :(

more excuses! *too wet* *too dry*
our founding fathers' children managed to get snowmen built.... this generation is full of excuses!
To: HairOfTheDog
*aaaaaaaaaah* *You mean I have to go back out there and try againnnnn?* *Bu-bu-but it's coooooold!*
Heheh, I'd rather stay indoors and cuddle with hubby by the fire.
