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.

That will work.... You know... I tried the other day to change my email addy with yahoo to the new one.... Since I was bought out, my @ has changed. I couldn't figure it out!

No worries immediately, 'cuz my old addy will forward for several months before it dies, but anyone know about this? Is the registration tied to an email address so I would have to re-register?

Richard Dreyfuss was best in 'Let It Ride'. The part was made for him. Funny movie, I thought.

I know, I've asked for a lot of prayer lately but I've just been sitting her crying and crying since I got up this morning. I need some more.

It's alright WN. Go ahead and cry. You cry because your kid leaves you alone, I cry because my kids won't leave me alone. ;^)

Glad your house is fine. How pretty it must be to live on an island!

My boss is in the "final" meeting this morning with the one guy who can save the office, so keep your fingers crossed for that 1% chance! I'm hanging in there! :)

Ya know, if you served that guy a breakfast like this I don't see how he could possibly let you go.

Man I just sent up the strongest and loudest prayer of the day for you. Staying her in the place alone has at least encouraged me to walk around praying LOUD. So, sending them up for you - and that God work in complete favor for you and your boss. Read Psalm 5:12.

Just gave you one of those loud prayers too. I know God hears the quiet ones. But, today I feel much better with the noisy ones.

LOL! My boss doesn't want me to go because it's just the two of us in this office and I always have his coffee ready the moment he walks in and his e-mails organized in order of priority, etc.

The ones who want this office gone do not know me at all. I am a faceless minion in the company.

BTW, I found FF on the doorstep when I got home last night.

Oh goody!! As soon as I shut my computer down last night, I remembered that I had wanted to check the UPS tracking info! Arrgh! I'm glad he made it safe and sound. Isn't he the cutest thing?

Thanks for the prayers! You're a great friend!

Staying her in the place alone has at least encouraged me to walk around praying LOUD.

It's been a while since I've done that and it sure does sound appealing.
