Several big-name department stores have begun to shut down in cities across the nation, including here locally.

Why did I not know this until recently? I got my license when I was 16, literally....well never mind it doesn't matter how many years ago it was but the point is no one ever bothered to tell me over the years that if I did this on my license, I could be breaking the law!

It's surprising when people aren’t aware of the celebrities from their hometowns. I wanted to see who represented my communities of Midland and Odessa Texas. I was impressed at all of the names and their accomplishments. So much so, I wanted to pass my newfound knowledge along to you.

Is it that time of year again already? Cold weather food season! I mean I am fully aware that you can eat what you want when you want at any time of year but this time of year, when fall arrives, in 5 days, these foods I speak of just hit different. Caldo, chili, chicken soup, menudo, tamales. Soups of any kind are a must this time of year!

The first day of fall is Saturday, September 23rd. Even though the temperatures and weather have made this week feel very fall-like, we still have a few more days to go. With that being said, is it too early to start with the pumpkin everything? Absolutely not in my opinion! I am a pumpkin spice girl. Some are some are not but this time of year I cannot wait to get my hands on pumpkin spice everyt

I absolutely love Facebook groups that were created by West Texans for West Texans and 'newbies' too.

I am telling you right now, that I am far too trusting and I need to stop. Especially after what happened to me recently. So just like the title of this article states, if you own an iPhone, don't be a Rebecca,  never do what I did!

I have to say, I'm always down for a good recommendation. Are you like me, that if you are heading to a city or state that you've never visited before or maybe it's been a few years, you start asking around for things to do or places to eat? This is pretty much what happened to me recently, when a friend of mine found out I would be visiting a place she used to live.

Unfortunately, it is that time of year. Kids are back in school, all packed together in the classroom, and almost instantly the little germs start spreading. It never fails, Around this time of year, someone or everyone in our household ends up with a sore throat, sniffles, and sneezing. And here comes flu season, you just can't win this time of year but if you are currently struggling with a sore

How many times has the question been asked of you? If you won the lotto, what is the first thing you would buy? Everything. Here lately with the winnings reaching up to a potential billion-dollar payout, we start to dream of the possibilities! Although I doubt any of us could spend that amount of money in this lifetime but if I won it, I sure would try!
