After 13 years, I forget what it feels like to travel every day for work. This week marks six months that I’ve been with Giant Eagle. I was hired on November 19 after applying online and doing two interviews (one by phone and one by video). After orientation and a training session that included watchingContinue reading “Six Months at Giant Eagle”

Since graduating college in 2005, I struggled with myself. I failed to come to terms with my time in college because things didn’t work out. I denounced ever attending Slippery Rock because nothing came of it except working a menial job at Kings. I mellowed out a little when I got hired at WIS butContinue reading “The Meaning Behind April 13”

In today’s blog, I look back on this magical day one year ago when I celebrated the wedding of my fashion buddy and stylish sister and my new brother in law. In my top ten of 2021, this ranked in my top three along with turning 40 and celebrating my gender nonconformity. I got theContinue reading “The Wedding Revisited”

On Monday, I highlighted my mental health journey as I talked about my coming out. I also talked about my gender nonconformity which has really come to light over the last few years. While I’ve experienced happiness from it, I’ve also spent a lot of time defending it as some of those close to meContinue reading “My Mental Health Journey through Adulthood.”

I’ll start off the blog by wishing Gram a happy birthday on what would have her 95th yesterday. I remember many great Mother’s Day picnics at Shawnee and Berlin with my aunt, uncle and cousins. The holiday just isn’t the same since she passed in 2006. Mother’s Day picnics at Shawnee were as much traditionContinue reading “Laurel Highlands Meeting Recap 5/10”

Recently my mother brought to my attention one of my former coworkers from my old job. He worked there in the early 2010’s and, to say the least, was not very nice to me. After he left at the end of 2013, he ran into trouble with the law. Without getting into it due toContinue reading “Coming Out at the Right Time”

Hello. I know you haven’t seen too many blog posts lately. Don’t worry about me because I’m all right. It’s been a busy Spring with work and I’ve been pursuing other interests. Here’s some of the things that have kept me from blogging over the last month and a half. I’ve been hard at workContinue reading “Stylish Returns”

It’s been a while but…. I’m back. Apologies for the lack of blog posts this month. I took on some other interests including learning a foreign language on Duolingo. I’m going for 30 days in a row and right now I’m at 18. I am also in the Sapphire League and likely moving up toContinue reading “Stylish Reaction! Businessman Refuses to Serve Lesbians”

Sorry for the lack of blog posts this month. I‘ll attribute that to a lack of interesting content, plus taking on other hobbies. Being busy with work and other interests, it’s not easy to take the time to research a topic either. I’m learning Spanish through the Duolingo app (love that little owl 🦉) andContinue reading “What’s Coming to the Blog in May”

On New Year’s Day 2022, I treated myself to a nice shopping trip. It wasn’t the same as past annual New Year’s Day shopping trips which would take us to Borders in Monroeville or Barnes and Noble in Greensburg. The weather was miserable and nothing like January 1 should be. I prefer sunshine and aContinue reading “My First Beauty 💅 Blog”
