Early this morning, I listened to a podcast and the guest was Kristine Eckart. I dropped her name on the blog this week as her new Gilmore Girls-related book, “Meet Me at Luke’s” will be released next Tuesday. The name of the podcast was called “We Ship It”. The We Ship It Podcast goes intoContinue reading “Listening to a Pop Culture Aficionado on the Pod!”

Yes. You Can at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters!
Our word of the day on Tuesday at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters was Courage. We needed that during the meeting as the technology was not being so reliable. But, those of us in person and online persevered through the mess and made it another enjoyable meeting. We had three attending the meeting in person, while theContinue reading “Yes.

It’s the Last Day of Summer, and Relief is Coming!
Back in May, we were stuck in a damp, cool weather pattern. This coming on the heels of a warm, Mother‘s Day weekend when we opened the pool. I didn’t get in the pool until exactly a month later. Go figure with this Pennsylvania weather. The second half of the month was mostly cool andContinue reading “It’s the Last Day of Summer, and Relief is Coming!”

Thursday night dinner finally happened! The third time was the charm as Mr. Clougherty and I rescheduled our dinner series twice. Once was due to swimming and the other was for Open House.

Doing Something Lighter
We are now in the final week of Summer, and it will sure feel like it. Overall, this summer turned out better than last year. I swam more than I have and I had a great week off. Unfortunately, Cutie’s pulled the plug on its biweekly Bible Study due to pressure from other people whoContinue reading “Doing Something Lighter”
An Emotional Day
This past week was heavy, the Charlie Kirk shooting in Utah and then 9/11 the next day. 24 years later, that day still hits hard. Saturday was an emotional day for my family. We had fond memories of our beloved Gramma, aunt, and mother, Hilde Gaffron. My aunt posted a picture of the Gaffron siblingsContinue reading “An Emotional Day”
Finishing Up My Summer Reading. What’s Next?
I didn’t post a blog on Thursday (well I did but it was dated Wednesday), but I took time to remember those who lost their lives on September 11, 24 years ago. The attacks on the World Trade Center, Pentagon, and a plane crashing in a field in rural Somerset County shook us to ourContinue reading “Finishing Up My Summer Reading. What’s Next?”
Having a SWEET Time at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters!
Tuesday night, we held our Laurel Highlands Toastmasters meeting. At first, it looked like we might have just three in attendance but people came in at just before six. Our Vice Presidents Education and Membership came in just a few minutes past six with agendas in hand. Zoom wasn’t working in our favor but ourContinue reading “Having a SWEET Time at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters!”
