31 Days of Autumn Nesting: Day 18 – Autumn Crafting

October 20, 2012 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

I’ve done a tiny bit of knitting. Just enough to know that I want to try crochet instead. Ha! It wasn’t hard but I’d like to try something that will go a little faster. I don’t have big plans for this craft but mainly want something to do while watching tv in the evenings with…

31 Days of Autumn Nesting: Day 17 – Tea Time

October 20, 2012 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

It should come as no surprise, considering the name of this blog, that I adore tea. My grandma started me on it as an infant (I’m not kidding) and I’ve loved it ever since. I like iced tea, both sweet and unsweet. And I especially love a properly made cup of hot tea. Earl Grey,…

31 Days of Autumn Nesting: Day 15 – Bubble Baths

October 19, 2012 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

As the temperature drops I like to warm up with a hot bubble bath, especially at bedtime. We have extremely hard water which builds up quickly in the tub/shower. I’ve not done a very good job keeping up with it this summer but soon I’ll want to take bubble baths so it’s time to do…

31 Days of Autumn Nesting: Day 15 – Skeletons In My Closet

October 18, 2012 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

I was a little embarrassed to show you what my exercise room looked like yesterday but I figured my readers would have one of two reactions. Either you’d look at it and think, “Yay! I’m not the only one” and feel better about yourself. Or “I’d never let a room get like that” and again,…

31 Days of Autumn Nesting: Day 14 – The Exercise Room

October 17, 2012 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

I finally tackled a long-postponed task today. Our exercise room has been a dumping ground ever since our Happyland Music Festival back in May. Actually, that’s not entirely true. I *did* have it sort of straightened up at one time – at least enough that I could get in there to use the exercise equipment….

31 Days of Autumn Nesting: Day 13 – Pumpkins and Friends

October 17, 2012 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

I bought some little pumpkins at Whole Foods recently. Don’t they make a nice addition to the autumn decor on our entry table? And just because they are adorable: Shiloh with his best buddy, Steinbeck

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…

Getting Lucky

October 16, 2012 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

We’ve been having so much fun lately that I haven’t had time to blog about it all. Back on September 29th we went to McAlester to hear our friends Aaron and Lindsay of Rowdy Folk perform at Lucky’s. We went early enough to eat dinner at Gia Como’s and check in quickly at our hotel….
