Where in the world is Plastiki

You may ask what is Plastiki, Its a a catamaran may entirely of plastic bottles and is sailing around the world documenting  garbage flows in our oceans , there are 6 which follow the currents of the Ocean , one is believed to be 90 feet deep, its located of the coast of American in the Pacific between Australia.
Right now they are located off I believe is Little Island in what is commonly known as the dead zone . Hardly any air currents  to push your sails.

I at home am in the mists of cleaning and then having a shower and washing my stringy greasy hair YUK.
Yesterday I potted some Petunias and bought more soil and generally over did it.
Watched Grey s last night while Dan was away talking about running to another group of recently brainwashed  runners.
 came home then went upstairs to watch CSI dead heads.
I went to bed at 11 pm.

Poetry
Stay here always in Paradise
Protect it from the greedy and unenlightened
Your message will be only to true friends whose souls have touched yours
So many generous of spirit, joy and laughter, asking for nothing yet they give so much
You have recieved a treasure, that many would steal, this piece of Shangralai

Goodbye Dear Uncle Pino

Our darling Uncle Pino passed way Saturday I believe and we are heart broken, Each and every time I visited Sicily he opened his home and his arms to me and my family.
He was bigger than life at 6 feet 3 inches and you always felt wonderful getting a hug or kiss from him.
He adored and cherished all in his family and his friends. He leaves behind my Aunt Maria Theresa, his daughter Maclovia and her family Nino and Antonio and Andrea, Oscar and Michaela and Serena and Samuel , Flavio and Antonetta and Virgina and Roberta.His only brother alive there my darling Zio Ignazio a most wonderful and sweet man. Also his two sisters there Rosetta and Francesca. Here in Canada his brother Augostino and Anthony and Nicola.
They have laid him to rest next to my dad and their parents and grandparents.
May flights of Angels lay thee to they eternal rest!

My mom was feeling very despondent the other day Tuesday to be  precise, so I asked my younger brother Robert to go and bring her to my house, where she seemed to perk up.I  went  to the store to get her anything she might want to eat or prepare, then came home and made dinner preps because I had to be at work later in the afternoon,went to work and left her in my daughters care.
My sister dropped in to bring her some items she'd forgotten at home and she went into the depression mode again, My sister told told as did i she has to stop thinking that way , she is in relativity great health for 82 and she should be thankful , she has her own teeth good grief. Most of mine crowns .
When I got home she had not eaten what I rushed to make but just a small bowl of pasta.....breathe and count to ten. fine ...I ate it and Serena did as well, then my waist flotation muffin was called out," were did that come from are you getting fat."I replied the same place yours came from MOM." Let the games begin.

Sneezy whezzy and MAI NOUSE ID STUFFED UP!

Yesterday when I went out with friend Anna in her car which her beautiful dog Sunny rides shot gun  most of the time, I inhaled billions upon billion's of dog dander and hair or fur.
Spent most of last night awake trying to get it out of my airways. Woke up feeling like my head was in a large plastic drum, Ka Thump blow and then sneeze.
It is starting to dissipate slowly but Shirley ...LOL...
I planted my Dahlia in the front garden lets hope it takes,I trimmed my licorice bush for the Monarch butterfly's to come and visit.
Caught up on the latest news about Iceland's Volcano , sound s like it wont be receiving any tourist for quite a while.The ash and toxicity spewing are now also flowing south.
They said it could take up to a year, to settle down.
I think this has to do with the fact that most of Iceland is thermos  hot pools and lava  and this makes for a terrifying mix.
Although my son and his Donna were  set to go there on May 15th , I am glad this happened while they were at home and not there with no way to fly out. Yes money may be lost but they will be well and safe.
I'm going to pay the dentist now and get something for lunch and mail some letters.

Morning has broken like the first morning..freakin birds are chirping

Woke up this morning with the same head ache as last night , Marie came over last night and we watched a Bette Davis Film "The Letter" then we watched my " My Life in Ruins" ate low cal mouse and and had some drinks.
My head started to a ache at 11.30 .Fell asleep on the couch woke up again at 1.30  went to bed leaving half the light s on all night.
When the birds woke me up this morning my head still hurt  had more pills ate cereal toast and coffee laid down on the couch again till 9am headache at last gone.
Spoke to Marie , my mom and then Anna made plans to go shopping with Anna, bought new Back scrubbing brush.Two Styrofoam turtles , one tiny pot,tongs, and two huge tin and porcelain vases.Don't ask , the only thing  I really needed was the brush.Why turtles you ask , why , 2.00 a piece I answer.Maybe some after headache effects.Went  to dinner at Kelsey and then came home for coffee and conversation, Anna went home and I put on my stretchy PJ.
Going to watch Jean Simmons tonight.
Good night Ms. P.

Head aches and back aches and toe aches.............................Ah shut up

Do you ever talk to yourself in your head and never get anything sorted out.
I had a dull headache all day yesterday and a massive hot flash when I was out shopping, horrible, my top at the back was drenched. Then I thought I stub my toe just to get a little more pain going, that led me to lay down on the couch were for some reason pulled something near my back.Got that sorted out and had some Doritos's and salsa for dinner YUM... no comments from Mr. runny pants.
Cleaned all the bathrooms and dusted swept the floors took down the sheers and washed them , and left them in the machine for now.Washed the hall and kitchen and I'm done back to the Doritos' and salsa for lunch ....

Alone again Naturally.

Well the family has gone again , Dan to Boston yesterday afternoon , Serena to Guelph this morning.
He called this morning to tell me they'd spent the night in Utica, and were leaving after breakfast. However have no idea the name of the hotel he will be staying at while in Boston, that little bit he left out.So if anyone wants to contact me this weekend , I will not be answering the phone.
Leave a message.
I will plant my grape vine today and hope for the best.

Can it get any stupider?

Woke up this morning at 5.30 am and went down stairs , made coffee, looked out living room window and thought who took our car. I was under the mistaken impression given by my husband earlier this week he was leaving for Boston this morning.He would never drive our car there.
came back upstairs and noticed suitcases behind bedroom door still here, maybe he went for milk as we left our milk at the supermarket some how yesterday and did not realize it till 10.30 pm last night when he came down for a glass. Nope I thought 1/2 hour later , were can he be, still under the il;illusion he was leaving this morning, so as my daughter got up to have cereal with no milk I thought I'd  c all his cell," I'm at work he replied "when" I said were are you?"Mystery solved and daughter went to work in a tiff. Black coffee for me and laundry and wash the floors and do the bathrooms .Will go for walk later, need more coffee.
Received great photo's from friend Nancy and lover boy , touring around the windy city. Do these people never work?

Annoying people I live with and other space Aliens

Yesterday was pleasant enough day lots of laundry , some Gardening I planted the Rhubarb plant near the composter ,Organized more garbage and made burgers for dinner. Forgot to call my mom of which she reminded me ,fell asleep on the couch as usual no one came down to talk to me no one sat with me except when they ate.
What is the point of even being in this here other than cleaning up after other peoples crap.
I am going to do a little experiment, I will no longer cook for them nor clean their stuff just my things, not put they're things away were they belong just leave everything where they leave it. organize my meals and see if they notice a difference.The plot thickens and the games  afoot. Watson ....I mean Peg.

What!

A boring day soing some laundry , that's not new  dig a hole to plant rubarb that's new put out garbage norm and checking out web sites norm and going for a walk again  almost new.
Got to eat before take my inflammatory  pills  that's new, seem to be helping in eliminating the tightness around my thigh and knee.
Went to free loans and subsidies from federal government , have to pay 54.00 to view site , what a rip off.

We were done like dinner!

Well burlunch went great , every one ate and then left by 6.30pm Mom had a nice time.Joe and Lisa bought lemon Pie .Lucy didn't want to join us, her lose, I even manged to clean the twigs and garbage from the back garden , filled an entire bag more left to do but it was a start. Dan took down the Christmas lights finally.
I will once again be alone as of Friday , Dan is leaving Thursday for Boston , Serena is leaving Friday for Guelph, I really need a Gay husband,someone to enjoy going out  to dinners, movies and shopping,Road trips and weekends away.

Conversations that don't involve the words ran , run time and km,.

tremendous movie..Sandra deserved that Oscar ...and all the acolytes that went with it... Her soon to be ex deserves a large turd in his face.

ITS HIP HIP HORAY....NO SIGN OF INFECTION

SO THERE WAS NO SIGH N OF INFECTION ,WHICH WOULD HAVE MEANT HAVING ANOTHER SURGERY AND HIP REPLACEMENT.Marion came as moral support and in the event I attempted mad surgery on my surgeon. However the Cat scan showed fluid on my fat fanny butt near the sighatic nerve which he believes is the reason for the tightness  in the leg.Advil extra strength for 2 weeks twice a day.This should decrease the fluid inflammation.
The other thing they discovered is I have osteoarthritis in my knees[both] my other hip and in my right foot.
My scan showed dark dots on these area's. looked like a stick man with the dots being the joint area.
Marion looked more closely on the screen I get squeamish looking at my insides.
So now I need my G>P> to send me to a arthritic specialist and determine a round of treatment , natural is what I prefer to chemical but if I could combine the both along with exercise I will.
That's it in a nut shell. Thank you God it was not more surgery, I will do whatever to decrease the chances for other parts being surgically fixed as well if possible.Pray for Me.

Its [drum role please ] the day of information on whats up with my hip leg problem, also Internaitional Hail to the Peg Day

On this auspicious  Day, International Peg Day, celebrations are being held all over Ireland any one named Peg knows a Peg is married to a Peg and has a shaved head  and whose first initial starts with N ,related  to a Peg or met a Peg in passing , ate with one danced with one or saw one from a distance you have been blessed.
When I get the results today I'll post them , good or bad I'm hoping for the first fingers crossed.
Marion is bringing Kleenexes and ear plugs in the event I start telling people off.Another friend who has my back.Well I'm going now  so later .

I wish it wouldn't rain..its grey and dull and I ache for sunshine

So this morning I  was hoping for a not so stressful day as the least , it started at 5.30  came downstairs and emptied the dishwasher while the coffee was perking , could hear the rain at the patio door..ping ping ping  consistent and steady{ yes yes means the same thing] what are you the dictionary police.
By 7 am Serena was up and ready to eat and go to work , thankfully found her mini umbrella in the hall closet when I organized after the dishes and between coffee's ..impressed yet, I'm not I 'm pooped!
Called Maryann after Serena's departure and had a lovely yak about nothing in particular , after hanging up I got stuff ready to wash yet again the kitchen floor, which because of my new runners with the grafitght sole leave charming cave renditions of the bottom of my feet like wall painting only on the floor.Not even museum quality all smudgy and loopy.
My Aunt called to inform me my mother has taken herself to the hospital emergency because of bowl pain shes been having.That she is waiting to be seen and that she will call me later. I phone my sister and share the wealth , then lose all interest in any more back breaking work.
Opted for a shower and then mom called still waiting to have tests done and she'll  call again.
no word so far its past 3pm now. I'll go and phone the emerge ward and see if any thing are happening.
