Do we really have to make everything so difficult? I've had one of those days where I just don't understand why we have to make it so hard to do something that should be so simple every single day. Maybe its just me getting through a new stage of life where...
Ting’s Mom on Saving our Planet
So excited to share my space today with my pal Karen, aka Ting's Mom. After I presented my question last week about how to handle my "trashy" dilemma, I remembered seeing her share something on Instagram about a few books she has recently used, to talk to her kids...
paper or plastic
Is it weird to say I’m getting really annoyed at throwing things away? Yes, I’m cleaning out too (and donating), but I’m getting annoyed that all my trash just goes into the trash can. It was probably one of the first points of contention in our home after we got...

three big things
3 big things....that's what this week involved! Monumental would be an overstatement, but let's digest and let you decide. Thursday was World Cancer Day. A day I always celebrate. I mean, it's how BIGPITTSTOP got its start. But more than that it...
Rising Homeless K-12 Population in NWA
How surprising is it that over half of the homeless counted in the Northwest Arkansas 2015 point-in-time homeless census (PIT) are K-12 students? Over 1,200 students are without a place they can call their own on any given night throughout the year. Every other...
