Fun times around here…

July 11, 2015 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

Last week was busy and lots of fun. First up…we celebrated our daughter’s birthday on Wednesday with dinner at a nice restaurant in a nearby town. David, Chris and I were there, along with our son-in-law, niece and her boyfriend. We had such a nice time together. Our beautiful daughter Thursday we went up to…

A “real” writer

August 13, 2014 By Deanna Piercy 5 Comments

I received my first check for a freelance writing assignment this week and I’m just a wee bit excited about it. I’ve had things published in the past but this was the first time I got paid for it. I guess that means I really can call myself a writer. Right? Right.  Here’s a picture…

What I’ve been up to lately…

June 6, 2014 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

I keep thinking I’ll get back to regular blogging and then life just keeps zipping along at a breakneck pace around here. And if I do find a bit of time late at night, our #$@*ing internet has slowed to a crawl…no, less than a crawl. More like a glacial pace. I still need to…

What I’m Into (September 2013 Edition)

October 5, 2013 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

Here it is, October. OCTOBER! So far it still feels like late summer around here but that will change tomorrow as a cold front comes through bringing rain and high temperatures not expected to get out of the 60s. I can’t really complain, however, since several friends have been posting pictures of snow on Facebook…

Keeping busy

October 3, 2013 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

First, how about an “Autumn on Apple Tree Farm” picture? I took this while walking Shiloh this morning: So, what have we been up to the past several days? Well, it hasn’t been sleeping, that’s for certain. This past Thursday we went to see Mary Poppins at the McSwain Theater here in town (they show…

My birthday weekend

September 4, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 5 Comments

David took me to Oklahoma City and Dallas this past weekend to celebrate my birthday. I feel utterly spoiled. And exhausted. Hey, if you don’t come home tired you aren’t doing it right. Right? Right. We headed to “the city” (that’s Okie-speak for Oklahoma City) Friday afternoon. We didn’t get out of town until 3…

Celebrating the Good Life

August 29, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 3 Comments

This is my birthday week and I’m spreading out the celebration. On Monday we went out to dinner with our kids and three couples we’ve been friends with for ages.  The four kids ate dinner with us and visited for awhile before leaving the “old folks” to our own devices. We ended up chatting at…

Moore Love

June 9, 2013 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

Yesterday we attended a benefit concert for the Oklahoma tornado victims. “Moore Love” was the brainchild of a couple of people we know and with the hard work of many, they pulled off an amazing event which raised over $5000. Several of our musician friends were among the 20 or so bands which performed non-stop…

A small-town Friday night

June 8, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

Too often I hear people complain about there being nothing to do in our little Oklahoma town. It’s true we don’t have all the big city amenities but if you cultivate friendships and seek out opportunities for fun you’ll find plenty to do. Last night we were invited to two parties. The first was a…
