About Me

Hi all, and welcome to The Comer Experience. Howdy, we are John and Gena. Gena is born and raised in Southern Oklahoma. John is a military brat, raised in New York for his first few years. He spent 5 years in Okinawa, Japan before moving to Oklahoma. Both of us have been married before, and have finally found our comfort in each other since 1999. We got married on July 4, 2006, and it makes Independence Day something much better to celebrate. We have hit a point in our life together that now we want to share our experiences with everyone. We want to take you on a trip through the everyday lives of our family. We have started this blog to give people a look into what our family enjoys, and goes through. You will see some great cooking from John, who learned from helping his mother in the kitchen. With his mix of Italian and Irish background he enjoys experimenting and making great food. We will also take you on our journey into learning photography and we would love to hear your critiques on our pictures. All and all we hope you enjoy your journey with us and can laugh and learn from our experiences. Enjoy and lots of fun, John & Gena #TheComerExperience

My Braces Are On!!!!!!

Holy Moly, they are finally on.  This is something I really have to get used to.  Molar bands were and obstacle; if it wasn't for them everything would have gone perfect.  Everyone says I have a big mouth, but this is soooooo not true.  After the full install, the first thing that happened is I sliced my tongue on the molar band.  Thought I would be brave and go back to work, boy that was a mistake.  The wires are heat activated and that is what causes them to tighten, so the pain has been escalating all day.  Doc said to just use ibuprofen.  Not sure how long it will take till they are through self adjusting, my mouth hopes very soon.  I can see this is also going to be a weight loss journey too, just in the last week I have lost 8 pounds from the spacers.  Here are some pictures, and more to come as this journey progresses.
Happy Smiles, Gena
