Hoping to grow the club and qualify for Presidents Distinguished honors, the Greensburg Toastmasters chapter held its second open house of the Toastmaster year.  Mike Dalton served as meeting Toastmaster. Before we heard our ice breaker speeches, President Jim Teague gave a presentation promoting the open house. He covered Pathways, which everyone is enrolled inContinue reading “Open House brings the Guests and the Ice Breakers.”

Hey everyone. It’s been a while since I’ve posted on this page. I also did say I was launching a new one that would pertain more to Toastmasters. For now let me share with you where I’ve been lately. Work did start back up on Mother’s Day weekend. While it started slowly it has pickedContinue reading “Less is More”

Easter Supper, The Young and the Restless (her story), All in the Family (or, as she passionately referred to the show, Archie Bunker), the Jeffersons, and Family Feud. Those are a few of the things I remember my grandma by as I mourn her loss one year later. Tonight, we had raviolis for supper withContinue reading “Remembering Grandma— One Year Later”

A great turnout by our Achievers club today with four exceptional speakers. These women spoke very well. The speeches were well-prepared and had our attention.

However, this weekend we got the good news from Pastor Donn and Pastor JD that we’ve been moved up to Yellow. This means that we are able to attend church inContinue reading “Cornerstone LIVE”

The National Weather Service will post a watch or warning if conditions favor severe weather. But some of us may be confused as to what the difference is betweenContinue reading “Severe Weather PSA”

No matter how long I’ve been out of college, Slippery Rock University will never get old for me. Today I worked at the Rite Aid in town so a trip to the Rock would happen afterwards. I got done at a decent hour and headed over to campus. I parked in the lot near theContinue reading “Slippery Rock For Life”

Don’t worry. The Stylish Traveling DTM isn’t going away. Five months into this blog, you must think I’m crazy to start a new one. But that’s my plan. The Stylish Traveling DTM you know and love is staying, but it will focus more on the first two things mentioned. Look for more style and travelContinue reading “Coming Soon”

Today was a complete day from beginning to end. I started with my virtual Earlybirds meeting (my third with the club). Three great speakers and three great topics. I heard the Gift of the Magi, learned about different leadership styles, and figured out how to work an abacus. I took part in Table Topics andContinue reading “Memorial Day Saturday in a Minute.”
