Not too long ago, I shared my concerns about Donald Trump should he become either the GOP nominee or, God forbid, the President of the United States. I can’t believe I had to type a sentence like that in my lifetime, or the one I’m about to. I can’t believe our political system has become…
I’m stuck in that weird non-momentum phase where everything is still really busy but it feels like there’s no progress being made, especially on the things I really want to do. Like blogging, and writing, and crafty things. I keep finding really awesome sewing patterns on Pinterest, too, but I haven’t touched my sewing machine…
And by that I mean “It’s been a MONTH? HOW?” and “It’s been A MONTH. How did all that happen in a month?” Oh man, where to begin… Well, I guess first off, I should announce that any of you who have linked to me should update your links to rebekahloper.com. Yes, that’s right, I…
Dear America, Most of you don’t know me. I’ve been told I’m not really supposed to talk about politics on my blog, but sometimes you have to talk about what’s on your heart, no matter what. And it boggles my mind that you don’t know me and can still make my heart shatter. I’m sure…

We’ve had two very close calls with tornadoes in the last year. Not to mention sporadic earthquakes, wildfires, and the possibility of extreme cold. We are not prepared in the slightest, and we’re going to change that with an emergency kit.
This first part of the Whole 30 Challenge has been both the shortest and longest 1 1/2 weeks of married life, I think. (And we’ve been married for eight years, so that’s saying something!) Emotions have been high – hunger does that to you. And we’re not starving by any means (though Mr. Loper might…
Drastic circumstances mean taking drastic measures. So Mr. Loper and I will be embarking on the Whole 30 challenge to try and take back our health this spring!
Wow, somehow it is 2016. There’s been… stuff. I’m working on a rant post about the drama of layoffs and unemployment bureaucracy that will probably go up this weekend. Mr. Loper’s feeling a bit depressed and frustrated about not working, and I’m trying not to be panicked about the lack of money that is imminent,…
