Representatives for the contest were from Bettis, Moon, South Hills, and Pittsburgh. The latter being the oldest club in District 13, having started in 1939 and predating the district byContinue reading “Toastmaster Tuesday: A Fun Contest”

There’s been a lack of quality content on the blog this month and for that I’m sorry. I’ve been either busy (going to the gym or working) or haven’t been up to providing content due to mental health issues. March is a weird time of the year. We’re just two years removed from my healthContinue reading “Coming Soon: Toastmasters Tuesday”

Over the last month, I finally began to take advantage of my gym membership and start going to Planet Fitness regularly. It’s been three weeks and I’ve seen a change in my exercise routine, as I’ve gone from mostly sedentary to a more active lifestyle. I told myself in 2023 that I wanted to workContinue reading “Finding Balance”

Well, it was a warm February to say the least, plus it was one of the least snowiest. I hope that’s not a sign of what’s come in March. Anyway, onto this recap of last month. Looking back at Feburary, it was a stressful one for my family as Benny went back into the hospitalContinue reading “Goodbye February”

Just like that, February has come and gone. We will be in March this week and that means it’s time to look ahead to the new month. We are going to be closer to Spring but still not out of Winter just yet. Here’s a look at what will coming up this month. I finallyContinue reading “Hello March”

The gyms are packed right after New Year’s and then by February 1 they’re like, what happened?Continue reading “Self-Care Saturday—Exercise”

Tonight’s James the Food Slayer takes me to Chili’s in Greensburg in Greengate Center. This is the area formerly known as Greengate Mall (still well missed blue locals even 20 years later). I will be grading tonight’s experience and then to close, reminisce a little bit on the old mall. I’ll also post food pics.Continue reading “James the Food Slayer #2–Chili’s 🌶️”

I remember that day very well. It was months in the making. I planned out my shopping trip and got inspiration from my adopted family. I was also inspired by one of my former WIS coworkers who also had a cute Coach purse. Today’s Fashionable Friday is all about my love for designer bags or,Continue reading “Fashionable Friday #3—Designer Bags”

Today is the day I will publish my 400th blog post on this platform! As happy as I am to reach this milestone, it wasn’t easy to get here. I was on 398 last Tuesday and hit a wall the last week with family stuff coming up; as well as me, doubting my non-binary lifestyleContinue reading “I Did It! But it wasn’t Easy!”

I chose not to do my Fashionable Friday and Self-Care Saturday segments this week. Apologies if you read my Fashionable Friday blog before I took it down. I just felt that it wasn’t good enough and I want to provide you guys with great content. I also decided to postpone my Self-Care Saturday blog postContinue reading “Delayed Progress!”
