I have been busy today doing laundry, and picking up around the house.

Tonight we went to Josh and Heather’s NTHS ceremony. We are very proud of both of them… Goodnight All… Keeping The Faith In Oklahoma

I had a bad night last night. I woke with one of worst headaches ever and then I got sick at my stomach. I am thinking it may be caused by one of my new medicines, the nose spray. I won’t be using it tonight… I have been lazy today. I went up to check on the garden and only the peas are coming up that I could tell. We are to get rain tomorrow so that should help. Dave did some more planting… Lori called and invited us to her Mother’s for Easter dinner and we accepted… I am watching “The Ten Commandments”… Goodnight All… Keeping The Faith In Oklahoma

I took a few days off from journaling. I just didn’t feel like doing it… This morning we left early to go vote and then to see the allergist. I was there for quite awhile. I found out I am allergic to quite a few things, grass, weeds, trees, dust, and etc… After the allergist we went to Tinker and got our medications. We had an hour and half wait there. Then we went to the commissary and after that we got some lunch at Subway… We have new neighbors behind us and they have put in a motorcycle motocross track and you should see my windows, they are covered in dust. None of us are very happy about it… I called Sandy in Ohio… Goodnight All… Keeping The Faith In Oklahoma

Today we had a roofer come out and repair some shingles that had blown off.
