Mental Health Series: Decluttering

This morning, I began the process of decluttering. First up is my wardrobe as I have accumulated too much. I was able to get a few garbage bags worth of clothes I never wore. This will go to Goodwill or Salvation Army with time. Maybe next week. The decluttering will happen in waves and itContinue reading “Mental Health Series: Decluttering”

Mental Health Series/Attitude

This blog is part of the Mental Health Series that I’ll be doing that goes through February. In it, I’ll be focusing on the things we can control, as well as what we can’t control. Today’s blog will highlight what we can do something about, and that would be our attitude.  Attitude is a nounContinue reading “Mental Health Series/Attitude”

Mental Health Series Coming Soon!

It’s a new year and my plan is to do less blogs. Instead of 15 or 16, I’m only doing between eight to twelve posts a month. I’m hoping less content will benefit me in the long run. While this month has been stagnant so far, I’m planning to take on a new series. ThisContinue reading “Mental Health Series Coming Soon!”

End of an Era in Pittsburgh!

I’m weighing in on the events of the past week. The Steelers once again went one and done in their wild card loss to the Houston Texans Monday Night. Unlike most of the weekend games, this one wasn’t close at all. Then, what happened Tuesday afternoon shocked the city and the NFL. Unless you’re livingContinue reading “End of an Era in Pittsburgh!”

Taking Up New Hobbies in 2026!

It’s a new year (that we’re about a week into now) and that means new hobbies that I can take on. Now, I want to continue writing in 2026, and the blog isn’t going away. I’ll just be doing less content. I posted an astounding 200 blogs in 2024, and just a little bit lessContinue reading “Taking Up New Hobbies in 2026!”

First Blog of 2026!

It’s back to reality this first week of January as the kids go back to school and the adults go back to work on Monday. The snow doesn’t seem too magical now and thus, the countdown to Spring has begun. Christmas has been coming down slowly in our house as decorations and lights came downContinue reading “First Blog of 2026!”

Last Blog of 2025!

On Tuesday, I blogged about some of the events that had the biggest impact on me in 2025. These ranged from Toastmasters events and clubs achieving success to work and my many visits to Cutie’s. But, one of the other things that made news was the anniversaries I’ve celebrated in my own personal life. 2025Continue reading “Last Blog of 2025!”

Christmas 2025: A Look Back 

Christmas 2025 is starting to wrap up here. The presents have been put away and we’re eating up all the leftover food from our Christmas Eve party. New Year’s Eve is coming in just a few days and soon, we’ll be watching the ball drop and welcoming 2026. It’s kind of scary to think aboutContinue reading “Christmas 2025: A Look Back “
