The Blue Whale of Catoosa

June 18, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

I’ve been hearing about the “Blue Whale of Catoosa” for quite some time and after reading this Buzz Feed post, “The 45 Best Things About Living in Oklahoma”, I was determined to see the whale for myself. It occurred to me as we were driving up to Joplin on Sunday that we probably weren’t too…

Memory Lane Monday ~ Cheeseburgers and Milkshakes

June 18, 2013 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

My family took a vacation every year while I was growing up and we always drove. I’ve never been much of a fan of the usual breakfast foods so if we stopped for breakfast at a diner or someplace like Denny’s, I usually ordered a cheeseburger and chocolate milkshake. Apparently my mother had done the…

For my dad on Father’s Day

June 16, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 1 Comment

Dear Dad, Last year on Mother’s Day I shared some of the things I appreciate about Mom and this year I decided to do the same for you. I know I’m not very good about verbalizing these things (and I’ll bet you know where I got that) but I hope you know that I love…

French Friday ~ June 14, 2013

June 15, 2013 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

  I think what appeals to me most about the stereotypical French woman is the way in which she lives life intentionally. Rather than just allowing life to happen to her, she makes deliberate choices and designs her own life. Every once in awhile I need a reminder to do likewise and that’s why I’m…

June Grocery Haul

June 14, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

These months seem to roll around quickly! Yesterday my daughter and I did our monthly grocery shopping in the city. As usual, we met up with our friend, Audrey, for lunch at Tres Cantina. I don’t know what was in the air but all three of us ended up ordering some type of burger, something…

Back to Flylady?

June 12, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

It’s been a week since I mentioned my plans to implement a summer routine. I’d like to say I have it all worked out and it’s going just swimmingly. But I can’t. It seems that my days vary so much that it’s hard to come up with a consistent schedule. I think I’m just going…
