I’ve been a regular customer of Sun Dawg Cafe for five years now. I found out about them through friends at my old home church, Greensburg Alliance Church. They went into business in 2012 and their first location was under Westmoreland Ballet Company (where Yumzio Bistro is located now). They moved to their current locationContinue reading “Stylish 👢 and Hungry 😋—Sun Dawg Cafe”

Recently, the Greensburg Club finished the year with Presidents Distingished honors. The dedication and hard work of the members helped lead them to success. We’re already off to a banner start in the 2021-22 Toastmaster year with a great meeting Wednesday night. To quote our VPPR Marissa Wallace, “I think we’re off to an excellentContinue reading “The Original Greensburg Toastmasters Club?”

My third 40th birthday celebration in as many days was today. This time I would be joined by the Nicholson’s, and Aunt Sue and Ben. They all made their arrival around the 2pm hour.

Sara asked me if I was free Saturday. I said yes. Therefore, we met for lunch at the Olive Garden in Greensburg. Both of us had come off big victories this week and were looking forward to catching up for lunch. She came to me asking what my plans were and I eventually decided onContinue reading “Celebrating 40 and Fashionable 👗 👠 💅 at the Olive Garden.”

On Wednesday, I turned the big 4-0. I spent most of Tuesday night and Wednesday reading everyone’s post and thanking them for all the birthday wishes. It’s been an emotional few days leading up to my 40th and, I received a couple of gifts that you can’t buy. The first one was Toastmasters related. IContinue reading “Brought to Tears 😭 by my Fashion Buddy/Twin”

Last night was as good as advertised. We celebrated my 40th birthday last night at the Jean Bonnet Tavern. I heard great things about this place from my Berlin Gaffron cousins. Aunt Sue and Elizabeth suggested this place and I’m so glad they did. The experience was great. Like Toastmasters, I’m going to give myContinue reading “I Celebrated 40 and Fabulous at the Jean Bonnet Tavern.”

My 30’s began at Kennywood Park on June 30, 2011. We celebrated my birthday and my cousin made me the most scrumptious cake ever. It had blue icing and weather icons on it. Turning 30 was a welcome change after my late 20’s brought me misery and heartache. My late 20’s were just a dumpsterContinue reading “A Look Back at my 30’s”

It’s that time again. Time for our officers to get trained in the roles for the upcoming Toastmaster year. It’s Summer TLI (Toastmasters Leadership Institute). We started at 9 o’clock this morning. Our incoming District Director Bob Johnson gave the introduction and led us in the Pledge of Allegiance. He then introduced the new membersContinue reading “Summer 2021 TLI”

The TLI blog will be released after the event has ended, but until then let’s look back at some other milestone birthdays and preview next week. It’s not just any birthday 🥳, it’s my 40th. Wait until you see the one that’s coming in ten years. I’ve been making kind of a big deal aboutContinue reading “As I Turn 40”

This morning at 11 I had a meeting at church. It was for frontline workers. Pastor Mark Pastoria provided the Chick Fil A nuggets, and we had an amazing spread. It was a short and sweet meeting and we were done before Noon. Time for my Target run. I knew I needed some groceries butContinue reading “Monroeville Target Run”
