Before we look ahead to March, let’s take a quick look back at February. For starters, the month is ending warmer than it began. The last week of January saw snow and extreme cold. We challenged records by staying below freezing 18 days straight. Nowhere near 1977’s record cold though. We saw a warming trendContinue reading “Looking Forward to the Season of Luck!”

Farewell, Fab Five!
Well now, after eight years and ten seasons, the makeover show Queer Eye has wrapped up its run. The tenth and final season was released on Netflix on January 21.

Retail Therapy Coming Soon!
While my Cutie’s visit was just me yesterday, I still made the most of my Sunday afternoon. The snow didn’t keep me from going to downtown Greensburg, as it was mostly gone by the time I woke up. I wasn’t able to meet up with friends, but that meant the opportunity was there to brainstormContinue reading “Retail Therapy Coming Soon!”

De-Stressing at Greensburg Toastmasters!

We had an amazing agendaContinue reading “De-Stressing at Greensburg Toastmasters!”
Reading Newsweek During My College Days!
I’m into the Morning Edition part of my NPR book now. The show debuted in 1979, and I’m at the part around the beginning of Ronald Reagan’s presidency. Reading this book and familiarizing myself with the shows and personalities of NPR takes me back to my senior year of high school. Also, that summer beforeContinue reading “Reading Newsweek During My College Days!”
My Visit to the Westmoreland Sleep Center!
On Thursday, I had an appointment at the Westmoreland Sleep Center. I was referred to them by the kidney doctor whom I visited the week prior.

The Bags are Back!
For those of you rooting for me in my nontraditional fashion journey, the rumors of its demise have been greatly exaggerated again. But first, Tuesday’s weather brought with it a Spring preview. For me, it was a nice drive down to Connellsville for my first in person Laurel Highlands Toastmasters meeting since September. 55 degreesContinue reading “The Bags are Back!”
Wearing our Hearts on our Sleeves at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters!
It felt good to drive down to Connellsville on Tuesday night for my Laurel Highlands Toastmasters meeting. It felt even better telling myself that I’m all in after a January slump. Whether or not I honor that remains to be seen. Meeting online is nice but it has its setbacks. I can’t tell you howContinue reading “Wearing our Hearts on our Sleeves at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters!”
