Tuesday night was a night for celebration at our Laurel Highlands Toastmasters meeting. It was the birthday of our founding member and the Districtโs current Program Quality Director. I arrived early to the meeting with my cookies and when I walked in a little bit after 5, the room was already looking decorated. Still, myContinue reading “Happy Birthday from Laurel Highlands Toastmasters!”

Be Careful How You Start Your Day!
Saturday morning (well, afternoon), I woke up earlier than I wanted to. I was contemplating whether or not to go to the gym before the severe weather was set to arrive. Therefore, I picked up my phone and saw something political on Facebook. While I agreed with what was posted, it wasnโt the way toContinue reading “Be Careful How You Start Your Day!”
#GoodNews coming to the Socials!
In 2020, when everything shut down due to the pandemic, I made it a habit to support local businesses in the area. I did this in person, and through Instagram and Facebook. Like everyone else, my way of life had been interrupted. I was getting used to things like social distancing and having to wearContinue reading “#GoodNews coming to the Socials!”
Blog 911: Taking Care of Yourself
March 30, 2021, started out like any normal day. I went to work (I was still at my old job and was working locally that morning). I would have a doctorโs appointment that afternoon as I was looking to get a referral for a dermatologist. Fun fact: It was my first trip to the doctorContinue reading “Blog 911: Taking Care of Yourself”
Retail Therapy Coming Soon!
While my Cutieโs visit was just me yesterday, I still made the most of my Sunday afternoon. The snow didnโt keep me from going to downtown Greensburg, as it was mostly gone by the time I woke up. I wasnโt able to meet up with friends, but that meant the opportunity was there to brainstormContinue reading “Retail Therapy Coming Soon!”
Reflections of Summer at Allegheny Mountains Toastmasters!
On Thursday night, I attended the Allegheny Mountains Toastmasters club via Zoom. I came because I wanted to cheer on one of my good friends who was speaking about her Toastmasters journey so far. I met Dr. Liz and her husband last year at the Area Speech Contest that was being held in Johnstown. AsContinue reading “Reflections of Summer at Allegheny Mountains Toastmasters!”
De-Stressing at Greensburg Toastmasters!
Last night, I went back to Greensburg Toastmasters after having missed the prior meeting. This was due to doctorโs appointments and the need to rest up for work. We had two guests in attendance, one whoโs been part of Toastmasters in the past. The second guest was new to Toastmasters. We had an amazing agendaContinue reading “De-Stressing at Greensburg Toastmasters!”
Reading Newsweek During My College Days!
Iโm into the Morning Edition part of my NPR book now. The show debuted in 1979, and Iโm at the part around the beginning of Ronald Reaganโs presidency. Reading this book and familiarizing myself with the shows and personalities of NPR takes me back to my senior year of high school. Also, that summer beforeContinue reading “Reading Newsweek During My College Days!”
My Visit to the Westmoreland Sleep Center!
On Thursday, I had an appointment at the Westmoreland Sleep Center. I was referred to them by the kidney doctor whom I visited the week prior. It was a quick visit and I learned a lot from the doctor there. My appointment was at 3pm. As I usually do, I arrive early, and was ableContinue reading “My Visit to the Westmoreland Sleep Center!”
The Bags are Back!
For those of you rooting for me in my nontraditional fashion journey, the rumors of its demise have been greatly exaggerated again. But first, Tuesdayโs weather brought with it a Spring preview. For me, it was a nice drive down to Connellsville for my first in person Laurel Highlands Toastmasters meeting since September. 55 degreesContinue reading “The Bags are Back!”
