This is another private blog. Some things are best left told in confidence. First of all, I had a great time at Bud Murphy’s with Maura and Ashley. It was a long time coming but it was worth it to hang out with the girls. I did receive a nice compliment beforehand from a womanContinue reading “My Stylish Crush”

This is from October but this explains how I’ve been feeling the last couple of months. 10/24/19–Today on break I opened up. We were at our Dollar General in rural Carmichaels in Greene County. But first… I’ve been patiently waiting to move back home, but had to wait on my sister to have the rugsContinue reading “Hiding A Crush (from October)”

It was a great day for a Christmas Party, if you didn’t mind the snow. I had the liberty of attending two parties yesterday. The first one I had to dodge snow squalls to get to but I got there. At first it looked like it was only going to be a handful of usContinue reading “Stylish Christmas 🎄 Party”

It was a Toastmaster Weekend to remember. For the first time in my Toastmaster career, we had Winter TLI in December. It was nice to see Westmoreland County Community College decked out for Christmas 🎄. We had a great turnout for our Winter TLI as 143 people showed up though it did seem like thereContinue reading “The Best Toastmaster Weekend Ever”

Well today was the day. After pushing back the gift exchange a week due to conflicting schedules, we were finally going to do it. Chase texted Maura and I yesterday about getting together. I was definitely up for it because I had gotten the idea across to everyone back at the beginning of the month.Continue reading “Stylish Gift Exchange”

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. But first… Before we began the meeting I introduced our guests and we had a lot of them for today’s open house. Four from McKeesport (Yasmin, Daryl, Anna Lisa, andContinue reading “Open House Delivers the Best”
