Little known fact about Rebecca....wait for it....I love to read! My favorite subjects in school were English and Reading and I had great grades in both growing up. Yep I'm a weirdo. Can you imagine my book reports back in the day? No Cliffs Notes for this girl. lol

Let's call this the 'you know you love your kids when.....' blog. This girl stayed busy over the holidays and I'm not talking about the hustle and bustle of the holidays. It had nothing to do with Christmas shopping, wrapping or baking. My teenage son's Christmas gift was a new room. 'A big boy room' because he had outgrown his old one.

So what did you do during the long Christmas break? Eat. Sleep. Binge. Repeat? That's what this girl did for sure! After the Christmas shopping was done, gifts were wrapped and under the tree and cookies were decorated, what more was there to do? Lay around and watch tv. I'm really good at it now. lol Let me share with you some great shows I caught over the holidays...

We have always been taught to help others in need right? I think my parents did a good job of instilling in me that basic principle. If someone needs help and you're able to do so, always help out your fellow man. However, does the same apply to the occasional peddler that you see around the 432? There is almost always someone near the exit by Sams and the loop. If I have cash on me, (which I very

Okay I have to admit something. I was this year old when I discovered I did not know how to use a manual can opener .My better half brought this to my attention when we were opening some cans recently and asked for a can opener. Naturally, I brought him an electric can opener, which is legit all I've ever had and used in my adult life. He was thinking I was going to bring a manual one since that i

Okay so beginning of quarantine we were all doing really well learning new hobbies, trying new things, cooking, baking, cleaning like crazy. I mean with things locked down here and there, open back up, close down, we thought 'well we're staying home may as well make ourselves useful and do things around the house right?' I don't know about you but that whole idea has really kind of dwindled for me

We are 16 shopping days away from Christmas. Have you done any of your Christmas shopping yet? Do you even have many people to buy for, either family, friends or even co-workers? I remember when I was little there would be so many presents under the tree and there are four of us I have three other siblings. But I always knew that not only were they for our immediate family, including my parents, t

Add this to the top five things that I absolutely hate! Picking up and or dropping off kids at school. Why have we not come up with a solution? Why is this the one time of day that I get frustrated and go home and immediately need a glass of wine? Can we let the fine folks at Chick-fil-A take care of the line to pick up kids afterschool? You know they would handle it and do it with a smile!  Read

Many people are wondering are Christmas cards a thing this year? Christmas cards no doubt have evolved over the years. I remember in the 80's, my momma would send and our family would receive Christmas cards every single year, usually from the same family members. Some with a nice little picture on the front, a manger with the little baby Jesus, maybe a Christmas tree, or some ornaments and decora

Put this in the things-I'm-not-crazy-about-file....I know I'm a weirdo but I don't care for fudge the way some people like fudge. Especially this time of year, it is given as a gift for the holidays. My kids love it, my man loves it and I tell them go ahead and eat it all I don't really like it. HOWEVER, we bought this particular one recently and guess who was tearin' it up in our house?  Read Mor
