Every one of you…

Cat Cuteness

March 29, 2011 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

I love Simon’s Cat and this one just cracked me up: And now for a dose of incredible cuteness: Do you see that little tongue sticking out? Oh, my goodness. Almost too much cuteness.

Spring has sprung…

Yesterday was the first day of Spring and boy, oh boy! does that make me do a happy dance.  I took my camera outside this morning and captured a few glimpses of Spring especially for my readers who are still mired in last vestiges of winter.  I hope these pictures bring a smile to your…

True friendship…

September 16, 2010 By Deanna Piercy 5 Comments

I heard the U.P.S. truck pulling out of our driveway and went downstairs to see what had been delivered. I had ordered some Community Coffee the other day so I figured that’s what it was. Either that or David had found more pirate jewelry on eBay. I was, instead, surprised to see a package with…

Memory Lane Monday…Malory

R.I.P. Malory After 17 years of devotion, we had to say goodbye to our dear Malory this morning. I knew it would be hard but I underestimated how grief-stricken I would be.

*UPDATE:  I got the photo uploader to work so here are the pictures I took of Iggy Pup on the evening of his return.  The pictures don’t really show how skinny he is but if he’ll stick around, we’ll have him filled out again soon.  Iggy Pup disappeared about a month ago.  As a young,…

Sad Times on Apple Tree Farm…

January 26, 2009 By Deanna Piercy 4 Comments

We lost seven of our eight chickens last night and have absolutely no idea what happened. Their pen was secure and no evidence of how they got out. I’ll spare you all the details but suffice it to say, I’m pretty saddened by the loss. I also feel really sorry for the one remaining chicken….

Morning Chores on Apple Tree Farm…

July 9, 2008 By Deanna Piercy 5 Comments

If you call my house in the morning and I don’t answer, this is probably what I’m doing: Kelly, the mama kitty… Duke loves kitties… Cute kittens… Watering my little garden… Belle, the wonder horse… My adolescent chickens… Betsy, the last of her family… Hard working “farm dogs”…
