Back from New Orleans, still recovering…

April 27, 2015 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

We got back from New Orleans late last Tuesday. We just couldn’t tear ourselves away and ended up staying rather late Monday night. We only went as far as Baton Rouge that night so Tuesday was a fairly long day. I then drove to the city Wednesday because my dad was having a procedure done…

Just a quick post to let y’all know we did survive our trip to New Orleans. We got home Tuesday evening, enjoyed our first stargazing of the season, and then had a little trip to the E.R. after I broke out in massive hives and angioedema (swelling of face, lips, hands, ankles, etc.). I spent…

Pirates and Wenches

April 30, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

I’m still processing and recovering from our trip to New Orleans but I just had to share a few pirate pictures. I can honestly say these are some of the best people on the planet. Even if they are a bit crazy. Or maybe because of it. But truly, I cannot imagine a better group…

Here on Apple Tree Farm

July 9, 2012 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

I’ve got a busy, busy day ahead of me (Meals On Wheels, hair appointment, errands and a meeting of our city’s Multicultural Committee) so I’ll just share a few pictures this morning: My tomato plants are loaded and that makes me happy: I took this Sunday morning while walking Shiloh before church: And this one….

David and I got home from New Orleans around 1 a.m. Tuesday morning and then he left Wednesday morning for a business meeting in Houston. He got home yesterday afternoon. We are both still in recovery mode although I do pretty much have the house back in shape. There were a couple of parties here…

This was supposed to have posted yesterday but didn’t. Obviously. That’s our pirate gear suitcase, all packed and ready to go. Today we will be in New Orleans, the city of our souls. I can hardly wait!

I’m not amused…

This is a screen shot from my phone.  This is our weather prediction.  This is totally unacceptable.  I’m supposed to help oversee the serving of lunch at United Campus Ministry tomorrow.  I was also supposed to attend a prayer meeting for the UCM board tomorrow night but that’s been postponed due to the weather.  I…
