What's In A Name?

Welcome!

I have spent weeks, maybe months, thinking about what to name a blog.

I knew I wanted a blog because I don't like to flood my Facebook page with all my projects, but I wanted a way to share them. Welcome to that way! :)

I didn't want to go with my name because it is long and no one wants to type that many letters in all the time.

I didn't want to just focus on one topic, so it couldn't be something about cooking or DIY projects or places we explore.

There are so many blogs out there that it is hard to find a name that someone doesn't already have. Seriously, if someone looked through my search history they would see hundreds of names that I thought were fitting, but already taken.

Finally, while taping the laundry room for painting, I thought of this name and it fits for many reasons. Here are a few.

Little bit of DIY, little bit of traveling, lots of fun!

Little bit of patience, little bit of hard work, lots of love!

Little bit of this, little bit of that, lots of randomness!

So, I hope you will join along with me on this journey of blogging. I won't promise anything spectacular and definitely won't be promising a ton of posts all the time, but I will post as I can. :)

In Debt, One Size Does Not Fit All

We've all heard the saying that some things are just not "one size fits all." Lately, I have come to realize that debt is one of those things. I have been wanting to blog about debt and debt repayment for a while, but I really had to get myself into the mindset that I am going to tackle our debt once and for all before I could do that. But that doesn't mean that I can't give you a couple pieces of advice while I am in my own debt repayment journey, right? Yep, I just felt some eye rolls for that question; it's okay. Here are a couple things that I have realized along our debt journey: 1) We don't all handle money the same way. There are multiple financial advisers and programs out there that advocate only using cash. If you are like me, cash is not a good thing. I know that these programs advocated splitting the cash up into envelopes and only using what is there, but I prefer a more fluid budget. Cash is just a terrible idea for me because when I...

One Thing We Need To Stop

Two posts in one day? Yep, you are super lucky. This one is getting typed up super fast because of something I keep seeing all over social media: Belly Shaming. Every. Single. Day. I see posts in a group I am in where moms are asking how far along they look just based on their bellies. Guess what? No two people will look exactly a like while they are pregnant. My 21 week belly might be equal to your 9 week or 39 week belly. And guess what? That's quite alright! I wish I could say that it only happens in mom's groups or even on social media for that matter. Sadly, that's not the case. I have heard so many stories of women being asked how far along they are. The worst part? Sometimes they aren't even pregnant. And that is no one's business! Seriously, if it isn't your belly, you probably don't have a reason to comment on it's size. We don't just walk up to someone in the store and comment about how big their ears or noses are so why is it okay...

The Dreaded F Word

Wait, wait, wait. Not that word. Stop thinking bad things. I'm talking about Fingerlings. Or you can even change that letter to H for Hatchimals. Or any letter for any of the "big" toys this Holiday season. Why am I hating on them so much? Do I think they are stupid toys? No. I think that some children will absolutely love these toys and play with them daily. I also think that there are children that will play with them for 5 minutes and then never want to touch them again. I don't hate the toy themselves; I hate the craze that has come up because of them. Yes, I understand that they are popular because some children already have them and show them off either in person or on YouTube videos. I also understand that all the big stores have made a huge deal about these little toys as well, which only drives up the interest of young children (and even some adults). I especially hate that there are people out there clearing the shelves and selling the toys fo...
