Today’s fashionable Friday segment is short and sweet. I’ll be talking about activewear, as I will be setting sail on staying physically active in 2023. While my shopping adventures didn’t net much success in store, I think I’ll have more success shopping online this weekend. I’m fine if I plan to go out at someContinue reading “Fashionable Friday–Activewear—2/17/2023”

My self-care Saturday post is coming, but first an important announcement. We’re closing in 400 blog posts next week, and that calls for celebration. I’ll be off next Saturday and have plans to eat out and do a restaurant review as part of my James The Food Slayer segment. People read my reviews to seeContinue reading “Self-Care Saturday #2– Physical Health”

Can you believe we’re already at the end of the first month of 2023? For us that means we’re closer to Spring and longer days with more light and less darkness. In Toastmasters it means contest season is getting underway as speakers prepare to represent their clubs in the area competition. For me I’m gettingContinue reading “Goodbye January!”

It may be hard to believe but we are on the last day of the month already. 2023 is going by so fast. January has seen me grow where I didn’t in 2022. I’m still making mistakes and getting in my own way but I’m starting to realize it’s on me and no one else.Continue reading “Hello February!”

Welcome to the first of many posts on Self-Care in my new segment on the blog, Self-Care Saturday! I’ll be highlighting the many ways that you can give yourself a “me” day and take care of yourself. You work hard all week and you have a household to take care of and bills to pay.Continue reading “Self-Care Saturday #1: Reading”

In my previous blog post I talked about what will be covered in this blog. Those of you who have been with me before know I do restaurant reviews. You’ll get those posts two or three times a month when I’m available to get out. However I’m adding two other segments to my blog. FashionContinue reading “Fashionable Fridays and Self-Care Saturdays!”

I’m closing in on a milestone very soon as I should have 400 blog posts by February. I’m aiming for 500 later this year. I started this platform in November of 2019 (under a different name) and have developed a passion for writing. My friends enjoy my work and I’ve blogged about lifestyles, Toastmasters, andContinue reading “More Than A Blog!”

So far this weekend has been about as good as any January weekend can be. Despite the lack of sunlight, on and off snow, and post Christmas boredom, I was able to make this weekend enjoyable.
