Twirly Twirly, All Fall Down

I'm now going on my second week of on again off again vertigo.  It's not as intense but lasts longer.  I got misplaced crystals in my ears and it takes a while to get them back to the right place, so it will be a few more weeks til it stops.  But I REFUSE to take any more medicine.  The old doc wanted me on staten as well, and I refused that.  I refuse mammograms and pap smears.  I refuse colonoscopy.  Nothing invasive thank you.  My new doc, Ms. Keven (her dad wanted a boy) just looked at me and said, "K".  I love her.

Anyhoo, I am having trouble staying on my feet for very long so have to do my chores in spurts.  Let the chickens out, sit down.  Turn the water on the garden, sit down.  Collect bugs for Minion and baybays, sit down.  Cut cucumbers and toms up for the buppies and girls, sit down.  Make food for church, sit down.  Go to church, sit down, stand up, sit down, stand up, sit down (thank God the Presbyterians don't kneel).
Eat at church, sitting down.  Come home and water the chickens, sit down.  Go get some pint jars from my friendly neighborhood farmer, come home, unload jars, sit down. It's getting old.   I need the pints for pickled okra.  That's pretty much what is left of my garden, except cukes, amaranth, soy and herbs.

On another front, it looks like our hot weather is coming back this week.  I'm going to miss the 66 degree mornings of the last 3 days.  So no more rain for a while, but our well seems to be holding out ok for now.

I tried out a new recipe for church today cause I was getting tired of the same old okra dishes.  I made Bhindi Masala (spicy okra) on a bed of quinoa.  It turned out really well and I've got the recipe in my Demy now.  I thought it was kinda funny that Indians would cook with okra, until I read that okra originally came from Africa, so close to India.

I am desperately trying to figure what I am going to do with my week, since it is tough to drive while (physically) dizzy and there are no crops to speak of at the moment.  I've ordered some new books which should arrive tomorrow, so that should keep me out of trouble.

Here's today's chick flick
