What love is going into making everything just perfect. I can see myself as Bilbo, in the clumsiness and the love. Namarie, God bless, Antane :) Author Reply: Thank you, Antane. I'm do happy you're enjoying this. It's his love for Frodo that is motivating Bilbo to do everything himself. LOL! I can see myself in Bilbo too ... especially the clumsiness. I didn't have to jump out of a window during the makeover of my apartment, but some of Bilbo's mishaps--especially the painting ones--came straight from my own experience. Namarie | |

Ohhh, that room is going to be lovely! Frodo is so lucky. Author Reply: Bilbo's just getting started. Frodo certainly is one lucky lad to have such a loving uncle. Thank you, Shirebound! | |

hi! i'm really enoying this story! will we get to see Frodo's reaction to all of this at the end? Oh and the title is great, by the way! Author Reply: Thank you! I'm so glad you're enjoying this (and also took the time to review ... I appreciate it) As for Frodo's reaction ... keep reading. That's all I'm going to say. ;) I just couldn't resist using that title. It just fits so well, I thought. | |

Uh-huh. Paint in the hair and on the clothes and well, I've never experienced it in my "foothair", LOL, but on my glasses--I do know how poor Bilbo feels. And it *does* take days to get it all off. It's a shame they don't have blue tape and automatic rollers in the Shire! Author Reply: ROTFL!!!!! I KNOW!!!! I started writing and thought, wait a minute Bilbo has no 3M Blue Painter's tape. AHHH!! What is a hobbit to do!! My inspiration for Bilbo's paint job was ... MYSELF. I was painting a very narrow closet recently and I stepped back into the wall I'd just painted. I got paint all on my clothes, which I didn't care because it's my painting outfit, but I also got paint in my hair. My ponytail was white and it took a week's worth of shampooing until it all came out finally (can you imagine dealing with foothair). I haven't gotten any on my glasses yet though (crosses fingers, knocks on wood, etc). I almost stepped into my paint tray too. I'm not exactly the most graceful person there is. | |

Hm I just got this bizarre image of Bilbo Baggins as an Ancient Briton rubbing blue woad into his hair! What fun! Author Reply: Snort! Now you've got ME picturing the same image. It does seem to fit with Mad Baggins' image, doesn't it? Now _there's_ a plot bunny for someone! LOL! | |
