When I spoke with Jamey yesterday, he said he’d like to see more pictures of Marval. I had mentioned last night that pictures are posted on Marval’s Facebook page, but then I got to looking at their page and it doesn’t look like they’ve posted new pictures since March 25th, so I am dedicating this blog to showing pictures from around the park.

This morning was the start of Sunday morning breakfasts for the season at Marval, and it’s the only weekend when moms get to eat free with a paying family member, so Mark and I headed over so we could have breakfast at 7:30 before starting work at 8:00. For $5.00 (the price of Mark’s meal) Mark had eggs, sausage and biscuit, and orange juice. I had a biscuit with sausage gravy and a sausage patty as well as orange juice and chocolate milk. It was a filling breakfast, and so nice not to have to fix breakfast and do dishes! Continue reading
My wish for all of you mothers out there is that your children and spouses will show their appreciation of you for Mother’s Day. I certainly intend to tell my mother how much I appreciate her. Love you, Mom! 😉 Continue reading
What a spectacular day today was! It started out with a thunder shower between about 6:00 AM and 8:00 AM. At the last big boom we finally woke up for good. By then the rain was also calming down, but we were surrounded by water again. Continue reading
For the last couple of days, Mark has been limping because his knee is bothering him. Today he spent a good part of the day in bed trying to rest his knee. We did get out for a bit this afternoon to go up to Muskogee for his audiology appointment. Continue reading
Mark and I have been busier than a one-armed paper hanger. Oh wait — he is one-armed! 😉 Continue reading
There’s been an outpouring of notes and prayers sent to us in the last few days. Thank you for that. This morning Mark’s hand was hurting so he took his pain medication. It made him kind of dizzy and drowsy so he took a nap. That was the last pain pill he needed today. He’s going to try to go with just Ibuprofin if he needs anything during the work week, but as of this evening he was feeling pretty good. Continue reading
As an update to my last blog, Mark took the medication that was sent home with him yesterday. We thought the doctor had said it was an anti-biotic for his inner ear. Mark stayed home from work and slept most of the day. Several family members said it sounded like what Mark experienced on Monday was a vertigo attack, and his sister who is an ER nurse said that the medication he was taking was for dizziness. His last dose was last night and he was still a little groggy this morning. Continue reading
This morning Mark and I were washing bicycles outside the Activity Center and at 11:30 Mark was suddenly hit with dizziness. I thought he had low blood sugar, so when we went home for lunch I made a big lunch for him. It didn’t help. Continue reading
