A Hobbit's Tale

One may ask what in the world the name of this blog means. Let me explain. My dad has called me "Sherwi" (the "r" is sort of silent, hard to explain how to pronounce it)my whole life. I'm not sure where it comes from. Maybe it was the way I said my own name when I was a wee tot. Nonetheless, it has stuck with me my whole life. When Lord of the Rings became popular, my brothers started calling me Sherwi Baggins due to my tall stature. I'm honored to have it as a nickname. Hobbits rock!

New Years Eve

We kept New Years Eve pretty low key this year. We hung out at the homestead and played games. Around 10pm we started up a 48 Mystery that the 'rents had on the DVR. Most of us were dozing off. We flipped over to the countdown, watched the ball drop, and then all went to bed. I'm just not cut out for the late nights anymore...especially when I'm roommates with my little Iz and he wakes up between 6:30am and 7am without fail. It was fun to ring in the new year with the fam.
