New Year’s Eve is coming in just a few days and soon, we’ll be watching the ball drop and welcoming 2026. It’s kind of scary to think aboutContinue reading “Christmas 2025: A Look Back “

After the Storm
The snow on the ground is melting as the sun shines on this cold mid-December day. Tuesday was nice compared to the cold, snowy weekend we just had. Pittsburgh received seven inches of snow from Saturday’s storm. After the snow ended, we dealt with two days of bitter cold temperatures. It wasn’t even worth goingContinue reading “After the Storm”
A Cold Weekend Ahead!
Recently, a content creator I have followed over the years celebrated another year on YouTube. Jesse Ridgway (also known as McJuggernuggets) started his channel in December of 2006.

Bridge Between Two Eras!
November four years ago was a huge transition period in my life. The company I had worked for had officially merged with its competitor. I learned of the changes in June of that year.

If you were near Lake Erie or in the mountains of West Virginia, then you had more snow than we did. In places like Conneaut, Ohio, andContinue reading “Beginning Season Two of my Gilmore Girls Rewatch!”
