Time for a short but sweet,news and notes, bonus blog post. I ordered some new summer attire from Old Navy this month, including a few pairs of shorts. All of my shorts and pants fit. Perfect for a coffee date with yourself or someone. I broke in my new chino pants last Tuesday when IContinue reading “Summer Fits, Warmer Weather, and a Hossome Time!”

Farewell to the 2020 Series (Finally!)
Today is the final blog post I’ll contribute to the 2020 (or Pandemic or whatever name fits) series. Like that year itself, writing about 2020 could be as excruciatingly painful as it was to sit through. So the question remains. Why did I write about this lost year if for most people and myself itContinue reading “Farewell to the 2020 Series (Finally!)”
20 Years Earlier: The Greatest NFL Draft of my Lifetime
I don’t always post sports blogs on this platform. In fact, I hardly ever do. The reason being is that there are plenty of sports bloggers who do a far better job than I do it plus, I don’t have the time to research the topic. If I maintained this blog fifteen years ago, itContinue reading “20 Years Earlier: The Greatest NFL Draft of my Lifetime”
Learning What You Live
I was inspired to do this blog post after seeing a friend share this. Her late husband had kept this wrapped in plastic in a dresser drawer. My take on it is that if you want to be treated well, just remember how your actions towards other people go. Your actions always have a wayContinue reading “Learning What You Live”
Making the Most of It
This weekend has come to an end and the workweek is ahead. For me, I had a rare weekend off with another one coming in a few weeks for my Spring Conference. That will be a long three day weekend which should be a fun and enriching time. We’ll also celebrate our new District LeadersContinue reading “Making the Most of It”
A Holiday Season Like No Other
The 2020 series continues and is nearing its conclusion as we enter the holiday season, and it is indeed a holiday season like no other. Due to the ongoing pandemic and rising COVID cases as Christmas is coming, it was increasingly obvious that most people would be encouraged to stay home. Since 2020 was aContinue reading “A Holiday Season Like No Other”
20 Years Later: Remembering Napoleon Dynamite
20 years ago this summer, Napoleon Dynamite premiered in theatres. Compared to other films that played that summer (The Terminal and I, Robot), this one was rather cheesy and likely wouldn’t get two stars, let alone three. Napoleon Dynamite is set in rural Idaho and eventually becomes a cult classic. To those of us attendingContinue reading “20 Years Later: Remembering Napoleon Dynamite”
Two Years of DuoHood!
Tonight’s blog is last minute, but I feel I had to share it like I do everything. Today marks two years of practicing a foreign language on the popular app known as Duolingo. Next Sunday, I’ll post my fashion blog and show off my new ‘fits. I’ll be using my Old Navy SuperCash tonight asContinue reading “Two Years of DuoHood!”
Remembering a Great Man and Appreciating a Great Campus
On this day 11 years ago I was en route to Slippery Rock to say my goodbyes to a great man. It was a special day but a bittersweet and emotional day. My friend and fellow church member Gary Wakefield a few weeks earlier had passed away. He was 68 years old. 2024 would haveContinue reading “Remembering a Great Man and Appreciating a Great Campus”
A Season Like No Other!
The 2020 series continues as we’re now officially into Fall and six months in since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Businesses have long since reopened but there are conditions and limitations and everything else to worry about. Now more than ever, it’s very imperative to invest in our communities and our small businesses whichContinue reading “A Season Like No Other!”
