. On The New Things .

Hi friends!

​There are so many new faces around my Facebook page that I thought I'd take a second or two to re-introduce myself. There are also a lot of fun new things on the ol' blog, so I thought I'd highlight those using an upscale iPhone markup picture (see way down below) because #reallife and we're only into fancy, fancy things around here.

I'm Becky Cooper (Thumann). I put the (Thumann) in parenthesis because I got divorced and I'm not really sure about keeping his last name. I'm having a bit of an identity thing, but the good news is that I answer to errrrthang. 

I've published four books - you can find those at the top of the page under "The Books" (weird, right?), and I have a four-year-old that I call The General because he totally runs the show. (That's not really his name.) He's literally the best thing I've ever done in this whole wide world.

I teach English, I love pasta and Diet Mountain Dew, and I leave my flannel sheets on year round because I just can't quit them. My boyfriend's name is Craig, but I affectionately refer to him as The Boyfriend (so original, I know). He recently moved to Iowa and none of us are over it yet. He makes me laugh a lot, he's currently growing a beard, and much like my flannel sheets ... I just can't quit him either. #hearteyesfordaaaaaaaayzzzzzz

I sometimes write for Elephant Journal and Her View From Home, but you can always find me right here, living my dream. 

Fast Facts: I can knit, play the piano, and I was born on Guam. I also am not really blonde.

And I love fresh, new notepads. It's strange. I know. 

Okay. Now onto Team Thumann. 

[Would you still follow me if this website was called something else? Asking for a friend.]

At the top of the page, under HERS PRINTS: 

• REALLY excited about this. BFF Suzy has been making prints for me forever. FOREVER. This week, I uploaded a few for sale, and right now, there is one you can download FOR FREE. FREEEEEEZIES!
• You can find BFF Suzy on FB HERE. 

On the right sidebar on your computer (or at the bottom of the page on your phone): 

• THERE'S A FACEBOOK LIKE BUTTON AND IT ONLY TOOK ME FIVE YEARS TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO PUT IT THERE. Press it for me, pretty please?
• Also, just saying, my goal is to have 5,000 Facebook likes by May 5. #prayforme

Under the FB Like button and my (oh so short) bio: 

• Social media icons - you can follow me wherever ... just not driving because I'm always lost.

At the top of new posts: 

• MORE social media links because ... well ... I just figured out how to do that, too.

Whew. I am NOT a website builder, you guys ... but I sincerely am so thankful that you guys keep coming back to read what I write.
