Springtime, how do I love thee?

March 21, 2015 By Deanna Piercy 4 Comments

Today is the first day of Spring and I am delighted. Winter is always a struggle for me but as the days get longer and warmer I begin to perk up, just like these daffodils in our front yard: Springtime also means a haircut for Shiloh: He always acts a little embarrassed at first but…

Snow Day

February 23, 2015 By Deanna Piercy 1 Comment

A week ago it was 80 degrees and our daffodils started blooming. But this is Oklahoma and the only thing you can count on about the weather is that it will change. Around noon today we had this: And a couple of hours later: We are supposed to get more tonight and into tomorrow. All…

Like a child…

Welcome back, Spring! I noticed on my walk yesterday that our peach trees are blooming. Today is warm and sunny and nothing makes me happier. Well, unless it’s this: My sweet husband had this gorgeous, blooming lilac bush delivered to me today. Lilacs are very special to me. My grandmother had huge lilac bushes at…

Hope Springs Eternal

Look! Look! The first daffodil of the year! And more to come! David was out of town on business overnight so the task of taking Shiloh on his early morning walk fell to me (I also had to make my own tea this morning – yes, he spoils me). I didn’t check the temperature but…

A couple of “shelfies”

February 7, 2014 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

I’m not one to do “selfies” but how about a couple of “shelfies”?  These are the bookshelves in our family room. This was a built-in gun case when we bought the house but we are more book people than gun people. David built these shelves for me instead.  And these are the bookshelves in our…

Milk! Bread! Eggs!

December 5, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

We have a winter storm on the way with the possibility of sleet/ice/snow the next couple of days and bitter cold through the middle of next week. I am not amused. But I *am* prepared. We already had plenty of food in the house but after my piano lesson yesterday I made a quick stop…

Aaaand…we’re back

April 24, 2013 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

We got back from our New Orleans trip last night and all I have to say is, what the heck happened to Spring? It was 33 degrees this morning and that is completely unacceptable. I’ve got much to share about our trip but first I have a dental appointment. I lost part of a filling…

Spring is here!

March 20, 2013 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

Today is the first day of Spring and I am delighted.  It’s hard to see with the reflection but it says, “Spring is here!” From inside Buds on my lilacs Wildflowers Filthy cat. She’s actually all black unless she’s been rolling in the dirt.  Our ten-day forecast calls for highs mostly in the upper 50s…

With a spring in my step

March 15, 2013 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

It was 78 degrees today and I couldn’t be happier. I sat out on the back patio this afternoon and when Chris got home from work he joined me. I had some music playing, we each read our books and I even brought out popsicles for us. Bliss. I just wish David had been here…
