Feeling Better :-)

I am feeling better. Last Friday I went by the doctor's office and got a toradol injection and depo medrol injection and a prescription for a medrol pak. I still have a bit of a headache, but things are improving :-D I'll start reading blogs soon.

Frank and I didn't do anything special on our anniversary... other than being together. I did make brownies :-D

Years ago Frank and I both forgot our wedding anniversary. We lived at Ft. Sill (Lawton) Oklahoma then. We found someone to watch Sonja and David (our children) and we went to a u-pick-it farm and picked some sort of field peas that day. As we wrote the date on the packages we realized the special meaning of the day.

Frank and I enjoy being with each other no matter if we are doing something special or not. We are individuals, but yet we are one. We often think the same thing at the same time and that can be a little unnerving :-D

Speaking of crops... our okra is doing nicely.

I love okra... fried is best, then stewed with tomatoes and served over rice and then in any kind of soup.

I hope each of you are having a great week. I'll get around to your blogs soon... I promise!

  2. I am so glad you're feeling a bit better, Zaroga. I was worried there for awhile. Headaches are SO HORRIBLE and for you to have to get an injection..it must have been bad.

    I love your pictures..especially of the okra. You'll have to cook some up and show us! When you're feeling better of course. :)

  10. SO HAPPY that you are feeling better. I love fried okra. My husband doesn't like it stewed but I usually put a few small pods on top of my peas when they are about done and it gives the peas a wonderful flavor. He eats them (but not the okra). I am still amazed at how beautiful ALL of your pictures are. Happy Anniversary!

  13. Congratulations a little bit late..to both you and Frank...It is amazing just how quickly those BIG years come. We will be at 50 before we get good and turned around. We are going on 46 right now..seems odd how this has happened.
    I enjoyed reading how you met. Always special.
