I never make recommendations or suggestions to try something unless I've done it first. So thankfully I was at Cinergy the other day and discovered that they are bringing back kids' movies again this summer. This saved us last summer. It was great and my littles were able to go watch almost every movie offered summer of 2021. I loved that they were able to watch movies that they had possibly seen

I have stated many times both on-air and in many an article how much I dislike summer. It is 100% my least favorite season of all. You have heard me say everything from the fact that I sweat profusely (some would argue this is not exactly a bad thing, it rids your body of toxins) to I hate being hot, to mosquitoes not being my friends. I am theirs but the feeling is not mutual. Where there is a Re

There are milestone birthdays in every young person's life. Those double digits are a big deal. Wow, 10 years old! Then the day you hit 13 and become a teenager its the best thing but 15 is huge for young ladies dreaming about their quinceanera since they were small girls and sweet 16 even better because you're old enough for a cool party and also to drive legally for the first time.

My entire childhood, during the summer, I spent many days wanting to swim. If any of my friend's had a pool, you can bet I was blowing up their phone asking if I could go over and take a dip. If a friend or family member had a 'swimming party' for their birthday or just to celebrate the end of school, it was going to be a good summer...

Today is National BBQ Day and I am sorry (not sorry) but I have to say hands down the best barbecue comes from right here in Texas. We all have our personal favorites but the people have spoken. I decided to go online to find out what the fine folks of Midland-Odessa say is their favorite barbecue right here in the 432.

I am always late to the game. I barely created an avatar for myself last year, while others have had it for an eternity. I didn't attempt to use GIFs or share memes or things like that because I didn't know how it worked. I needed a tutorial and more than likely that tutorial came from 1 of my children. True story. So this morning I saw on my Facebook feed that everyone was changing their profile

'Tis the season, yes parents, it is that time of year. We have STAAR testing going on all around the Permian Basin and no matter what age or what our little ones may say, they do still get nervous and anxious about testing. I know mine do whether they let on or not. So in order to relieve their fears and help take a little pressure off of our little ones, here are some tips to help get them prepar

It is not unusual for many of us here in Midland-Odessa to have a little bit of a commute to get to work every day. However, for some folks, it may be 15 to 20 minutes as opposed to bigger cities where they might be on the road for an hour. I myself have commuted to and from work for many years. I joke that I do it in my sleep sometimes. (truly only joking)

I remember growing up in the '80s eating some really good food with my parents. Well, to my little adolescent self, it was good anyway. It was typically a weekend thing, do some shopping in Odessa or Midland, then go to a restaurant of mom or dad's choice. They didn't ask me. I would eat at McDonald's every day back in the day if I could. lol

I know we all have our favorites in just about any category you could throw out. Favorite place to grocery shop. Favorite place to get a mani/pedi, get your hair done, boutique, place to grab a sweet tea. I mean the possibilities are endless because we have a lot of good stuff here in Midland and Odessa. And where do many of our favorite places for this or that come from? For me, to be honest I as
