This is likely one of the most obscure titles for a blog and one of the most obescure places to hold a Toastmasters meeting, but we made due with we had to work with and it was a success. Wednesday night was our meeting night at Greensburg Toastmasters and we found ourselves in a dilemma.Continue reading “Meeting in a Hallway at Greensburg Toastmasters!”

Learning About Distractions at Cutie’s Bible Study! (Blog 777!)
Monday night’s Bible Study was worth the wait and it was one that I needed to hear (truthfully, it’s one we all need to hear). The subject was all about distraction. I arrived a little after five to set up my seating location, and went inside to get my coffee. I finished the In BloomContinue reading “Learning About Distractions at Cutie’s Bible Study!

Developing an Exercise Routine!
This past week, I made the most of my time getting outside; thus, I took advantage of the sun and warm weather whenever I can. On Sunday morning, I walked over three miles on the walking trail at Mammoth Park that circles around the lake. Also, I took advantage of my mornings off to walkContinue reading “Developing an Exercise Routine!”
Feeling Self-Aware at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters!
Tuesday night, we had our Laurel Highlands Toastmasters meeting. I was all set to go to Connellsville when I got word of a last minute change. I received a text at 4:30 with the option to cancel or meet online. We chose the second one and met via Zoom. Even though the rain wasn’t quiteContinue reading “Feeling Self-Aware at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters!”
Mother‘s Day
Today, we celebrated Mother’s Day at home by taking the cover off of the pool and enjoying Chinese food from Szechuan Garden. I took advantage of the beautiful weather this morning and walked three miles at Mammoth Park (actually it was 3 ½). I was also able to snap a few pictures of the wildlifeContinue reading “Mother‘s Day”

Graduation marks the end of one person’s time in an institute of higher learning, but it also marks the beginning of a new adventure. For me, that’s how I felt when IContinue reading “Graduation”

This coming Tuesday begins a challenge for me where I’ll be speaking back to back weeks at Laurel Highlands and Greensburg and achieving another level. I’ll be doing the same thing in June, on the heels of Summer TLI and my week off. Where that award ends up will depend on if we have enoughContinue reading “Continuing my Magnificent Speaking Streak!”
A Surprise Guest at Greensburg Toastmasters!
Tonight, we had a special guest in person by one of our former Greensburg Toastmasters. The Teagues are still part of our club but since moving to South Central PA last Fall, they’ve been attending meetings online via Zoom. Jim was attending a John Maxwell event and so he was in the area and thus,Continue reading “A Surprise Guest at Greensburg Toastmasters!”
End of an Era?
In 2023, Rite Aid filed for bankruptcy and thus, many stores across the country closed their doors, including here at the home in Pittsburgh. In the wake of the restructuring, all but four stores remain in Ohio and in Michigan, all Rite Aids have closed their doors. In the Fall of 2023, many stores inContinue reading “End of an Era?”

It’s now a week since our 2025 Spring Conference. I’ve taken the time to look back on how great this weekend was, but the struggle has been real. My mood has improved this Spring compared to last year and I’m ready to get back into speaking mode for May and June. Laurel Highlands and WesternContinue reading “One Week Later”
