The Sky Is Crying Pt. 2

Hi Worlds - I hope the gravity is keeping you rooted ?

Ok - another volcano has gone 'boom' in Iceland - no, not the shopping place !! - and once again the planes are having to miss the dust cloud....... the result being, that they are flying further south to miss the ash & our skies are, once again, covered in vapour trails !!

If you check these pages from last year, I made the point that the 'sky was crying' & that's the way it looks today !!  Loads of white streaks across the clear blue - earlier I counted 3 planes all passing over at the same time.... crazy, tho' I suspect the view was good !!

Many, many moons ago, I flew over this area (I was in a plane at the time) & the captain/pilot guy told us we were going over Cardiff...... from where I was I could look right across to Lyme Bay - a really great sight !!  It was very early in the morning & I could see the sun on the water miles away - great stuff !!

Ok - enough of the stuff in the sky.... it's a Tuesday (I think) & I'm sat here waiting for a phone call.  My Internet provider phoned earlier & claimed they could save me money - always a good thing..... anyhoooo, B took the call & got them to call back later - so, I'm awaiting the 'ring-ring' & I'll see what they have to offer.  I'm guessing not very much, but......... we'll see !!

Talking of B - she is out at a meeting... left a while ago & won't be back for about an hour - the rest of the pack are behind me doing the dishes (J) & upstairs, having done her share of the dishes (ME).... life goes on & as I didn't make any dishes dirty, I have no problems letting them get on with things !!

I've been a little under the weather since Saturday night - so the last thing I really want is food !!  Because I wasn't feeling too good, we missed Church on Sunday.... I didn't really wake up properly until 3.30 in the afternoon - tho' I did get B breakfast in bed earlier in the morning, before going back to sleep !!  I do have my good times...... not very often tho' !!!!!  Anyhow, we missed Church - maybe next time, we'll see how things go.

I had a letter from the hospital about going in to have my mouth checked out - read an earlier page to find out more - it's not going to be anytime soon - but not to worry, it's not so painful now, compared to a few weeks back.  All will be fine - just got to wait a while......... maybe it'll go away on it's own - now, that would be good !!  Still awaiting a date for my implant surgery - that's the one I really want to get out the way !!

Onto happier things - the music of the moment is by Dream Theater.... I can't remember exactly which album, as it's on a collection Cd I put together a while back.  I was going to play some Led Zeppelin, as it's 36 years ago today I saw them at Earls Court in London - but I couldn't be bothered to find the Cd out... I have a few copies of the show here abouts - I just couldn't be bothered as I say !!  Never mind, I'll play it another day....... maybe tomorrow.... I'll see.

While the music is playing, I have the TV on quiet - it seems that Mr O'B is over here on a State visit... I hope the weather stays good for him, tho' I suspect his plane won't be held up due to an ash cloud !!  I was surprised he wasn't here for the wedding a week or two back - tho' that wasn't a State event... I get confused between the two !!  I'm guessing he sent a pressy tho'.........

Ok - it's 6pm & still no phone call - how long should I give them ?  I need my beauty sleep !!  Maybe a bit longer........

I did a bit of painting earlier, not much - just a bit up the stair well......... the bending didn't do me a lot of good - so I stopped after a while.  I'm gradually working my ways upstairs to the landing & the various doors into the bedrooms.  I'm not looking forward to doing them - tho' I've kept a few brand new brushes back to help do the deed !!  By this time next week (or year) it'll all be done - well, I hope so at least !!  Time will tell, tho' I'm getting a ladder on Thursday to help reach the high spots - if nothing else, B can use it to clean some of the windows !!  The window cleaner guy is a waste of time - leaves more mess than anything else !!  Life goes on........ & so must I.......

'Til next time.....

Bye Bye
