Yesterday I gave you a list of five things you might not know about me and I promised you the rest of the list today. If you’ve been holding your breath in anticipation, now is the time to breathe as we explore the boring trivia exciting details of my life….
Things are relatively quiet in Beckyland, so I thought I’d try something different. Here are some things you might not know about me. Try to contain your excitement. 1) I went to high school in two countries. I started junior high in Colorado, moved to Germany where I attended Munich…
Today marks the two week mark in my chain of productivity and goal-setting. For the past fourteen days I have spent at least fifteen minutes each day cleaning, another fifteen or more exercising, and definitely more than fifteen minutes writing. I wish I could say that my house is spotless,…
I’ve always said that Viktor is a Halloween rat. He is brown-gray and likes to skulk around baseboards and look shifty. I even named him for Viktor Von Frankenstein. I never really wanted him, but his brother, Zyklus, needed a friend and when I went back to the store, Viktor…
