Too Soon…

September 22, 2014 By Deanna Piercy 6 Comments

photo by Deanna Piercy I want to paste these first fallen leaves back on the trees and nudge the sun a bit higher in the sky. I haven’t had enough suppers of sweet corn on the cob, my salty fingertips slick with butter. I never got around to making ice cream with juicy peaches and…

Getting Cozy for Fall

October 12, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 4 Comments

My POW (Project Of the Week) was to decorate for fall. I started yesterday and pretty much finished up today. I still have some things left in my fall decorating box which I may add in the coming days and I do want to get some more pumpkins and some gourds. But for the most…

POW – October 7, 2013

October 8, 2013 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

Here it is 10:30 p.m. and I’m just now posting. I meant to have a picture to share but, well, it’s a long story which I may tell later. I’m going to give that “Project Of the Week” thing another go. This week my POW is to decorate for fall/Halloween. If you don’t see pictures…

Chilly Saturday

October 5, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 3 Comments

We had some thunderstorms toward morning which meant that Shiloh was by my side of the bed panting from about 5:30 on. I think we need to buy him a Thunder Shirt. I took him out for a walk at a little after 7 and boy, oh boy, was it chilly! I had been too…

Geraniums and Pumpkins ~ On the Cusp of Change

September 23, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 3 Comments

Today is the Autumnal Equinox, the first day of Autumn, that perfect balance of light and dark. I’m truly a summer girl but Autumn certainly has its charms. Our temperatures are cooling but still nice and warm during the day. This coming week we should see highs in the 80s and lows in the 50s…

31 Days of Autumn Nesting: Day 21 – Taking a break

October 23, 2012 By Deanna Piercy 1 Comment

When I started this series I hadn’t really considered the fact that we would be leaving for New Orleans on the 25th. And then I had this notion that I could write extra posts and schedule them to post each day while I’m gone. As they say, the best laid plans of mice and men……

31 Days of Autumn Nesting: Day 12 – Priorities

October 16, 2012 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

Today was another beautiful day here in Oklahoma so even though I had things that needed to be done inside, I spent some time here: I sat on the porch drinking iced tea, reading and listening to music. And hanging out with Dharma: And admiring the view: I may not have made much progress on…
