Chicago Fire’s Fake Plane Crash, Christmas Shopping, Lego Minecraft Shortage, Pony Fun, Unconventional Cards – RTT Rebel

Tuesday has arrived.  It seems like just yesterday was Monday.  Oh wait, it was.  One week ago today I was jetting off to Chicago for the Real Whirled House – it was so much fun and touring Whirlpool was beyond educational.  You’re going to have to wait a little for that, though, I still need…

Jetting on a Real Whirled Trip, Dead Mouse Greeting, Stink Bug Stowaway – RTT Rebel

Guess where I’m jetting off to today?  I mean literally jetting off to – Benton Harbor, Michigan by way of Chicago.  I know, right?  I’ve been honored with an invitation to go on a “Real Whirled House” trip – to stay at The Real Whirled House in Benton Harbor, Michigan.  Say what? Yep, me and seven…

Death of a Furnace, Princess Nagger’s Happy Birthday, Christmas Wish List, 2 Broke Girls, New Kittens – RTT Rebel

It’s Thanksgiving week – which means today is Princess Nagger’s Friday (something she’s very happy about) and tomorrow I’ll be working on getting all my ‘make ahead’ items made ahead to reduce the amount of time spent in the kitchen on Thursday so I can kick back and relax. At least that’s the plan. We’ll…

Still Drying Out, Birthday Schemes and Dragon Eye Cake, Dino Moves: RTT Rebel

Hard to believe that Thanksgiving is just over a week away – I’m looking forward to it, though, since we get to pig out on good food without as much guilt.  Princess Nagger’s not only looking forward to the pigging out part, but that she’ll have an extra long weekend off school.  That part I’m…

Sandy Clean Up, Rescued Wine, Headless Dino Port Sippers, Nobel Tidbit: RTT Rebel

  I have discovered that when you’re involuntarily disconnected from technology for any length of time and are stuck in that ‘hurry-up-and-wait’ mode, it’s hard to get caught up and get back into the groove once you get reconnected.  But I’ll get there.  We’re slowly but surely getting things cleaned up after pesky Sandy –…

Frankenstorm, Crazy People, SpongeBob Christmas, Fall Decor FAIL: RTT Rebel

We’ve made it to Tuesday – and if you’re reading this specific paragraph with this specific verbiage, then it means our power is out and I’m offline waiting for  Frankenstorm to pass and the power to come back on again.  If I have power, you’ll be none the wiser that I’m anticipating a potential power…

Halloween Costume Plans, Warrior Cats vs. Angry Birds Birthday and more: RTT Rebel

With Halloween a mere week away, I think I’ve got almost all of the parts and pieces of Princess Nagger’s Halloween costume pulled together.  I had to buy some red trim to add to the black zippered hoodie I picked up for her, so it would look official, and I’m waiting for the brown haired…
