Thursday Three…A Fresh Start

September 2, 2010 By Deanna Piercy 3 Comments

Perhaps it’s all those years of school but September has always felt like a new beginning to me, almost as much as January.  As the temperature cools and the quality of light changes, I am inspired to shake off the languid attitude of summer and re-evaluate my life and goals.  The fact that my birthday…

Creating Your New Life…

September 1, 2010 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

I first heard Barbara Sher on a PBS special probably 20 years ago. We were on vacation and David had taken the kids to the hotel pool, allowing me a bit of time to myself.  Flipping through the channels, I came upon a televised lecture by Barbara Sher and was greatly impressed by what she…

Memory Lane Monday – New Orleans

August 31, 2010 By Deanna Piercy 6 Comments

In April of 2006, David and I made our first trip back to New Orleans post-Katrina.  I well remember the mix of emotions as our plane touched down at the Louis Armstrong airport.  I was so happy to be returning to the city of my soul, especially since I had wondered if that would ever…

Menu Plan Monday ~ August 30, 2010

August 30, 2010 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

Click here for more menu ideas. Last week was rather hectic and dinner plans changed quite a bit.  That means you may see some apparent repeats this week.  For instance, I didn’t get around to cooking the broccoli or making coleslaw.  Nor did I make refried bean tacos.  I just checked the refrigerator and pantry…

Wonderful Weekend…

August 30, 2010 By Deanna Piercy 5 Comments

This weekend couldn’t have been better unless it had been longer.  David took off work early on Friday afternoon and as soon as we managed to get animals taken care of and our bags packed, we headed up to Oklahoma City for the weekend I’ve been looking forward to for about two months.  David had…

They say it’s my birthday!

I’m so excited! David is whisking me away for the weekend at our favorite Oklahoma City hotel, the Skirvin. A whole weekend relaxing in luxury – sigh… I had my big party last week and my kids took me to Norman yesterday for lunch and a little shopping. Wanna see David’s gift to me? From…

See?  I can quote scripture, too. 😉 I haven’t forgotten my promise to answer reader questions.  So here goes: Georgie:  “If you could have dinner with one famous person past or present who would it be and why?” Ooh, that’s a tough one.  I’ve thought about this off and on since you posted the question. …

The lady doth protest too much…

August 25, 2010 By Deanna Piercy 20 Comments

Have you ever been around someone who is constantly talking about God, Jesus, their faith, the Bible, etc.?  I mean, even when it has little to do with the conversation at hand, they find a way to interject something religious?  I know I’m taking a risk by even bringing this up — there’s a lot…
