Last night was my first night working for Giant Eagle. Nervous about how it would go, last night/early this morning felt like nothing at all. In fact I think I picked up where I left off. Before I talk about my first night on the job, let me enlighten you all with a little backstoryContinue reading “My First Night at Giant Eagle”

I’m kicking off my top ten of 2021 this weekend as I go over some of the best (and worst) things to happen this year. There’s more positive than negative but social media is not real life. These next five weeks I will talk about two big events that happened in 2021 and number oneContinue reading “Top Ten of 2021—#10–Dinner and Disco Dancing 💃 🕺 🎶 🎤 🥗 🍷”

I’ve been struggling to produce blog content this month and for that I’m sorry. I’ve been busy looking for a new job, which I landed last week. I was hired at the Giant Eagle four minutes from my house. That’ll feel good when I’m not counting a Lowe’s two hours away from home not knowingContinue reading “Countdown to Christmas 🎄 🎅”

While bringing something was optional, I decided to make pumpkin bread to take to Friendsgiving. I counted down the days and before you knowContinue reading “The First Friendsgiving”

It was an event months in the waiting, since the club chartered on June 30. I wanted to attend this event since I learned about the new club following the summer club officer training. When the invite came up on Facebook, I was hoping that I would have had November 9 open on my calendar.Continue reading “Elegant Laurel Highlands Red Carpet Gala 2021”

This is my eighth visit to Cranberry High Noon and I came up for their Open House. This meeting was in person and virtual, therefore it was a hybrid meeting. Before that, I stopped off at Cranberry Mall and shopped at Michael’s, looking at all the neat Christmas items. Great deals too as most ofContinue reading “Eloquent Cranberry High Noon Visit 2021”

Wednesday night we had a small turnout for our Toastmasters meeting. Only five showed up in person and a few more on Zoom. Even the smallest attendance makes for a great meeting, and that’s how we do it at Greensburg Toastmasters. We set the bar for the district with how well-run our meetings are.
