I wrapped up my last full day of vacation on Sunday with a trip to Cutie’s Coffee. That’s exactly what this week off missed. Last Fall, I was down there twice during the week off. Summer is in full swing, even though it doesn’t feel like it today. Still loving that Bakecation (Oreo Cheesecake) LatteContinue reading “Storms roll in as Vacation winds down!”

Cleaning House and Walking around the Mall!
The first week off of 2026 is going by quickly. I’ve visited Toastmasters clubs, gone swimming, and went to the gym. Compared to my Fall 2025 vacation, it feels a little bit lacking. However, I’m not labeling this vacation week a bust even though things could have been better. I made a trip to aContinue reading “Cleaning House and Walking around the Mall!”
First Toastmasters Meeting in a High School Classroom!
It was the night… that almost wasn’t. The plans on this Tuesday of my vacation week included a visit to the South Hills Toastmasters Club. Before I decided to head to Canonsburg, I almost made the decision to stay at home and attend online. I’m glad I made the effort to drive to Canon-McMillan HighContinue reading “First Toastmasters Meeting in a High School Classroom!”
Summer Vacation 2026: A Much-Needed Reset Coming!
Today marked the first day of my Summer Vacation 2026. The weather this week is trending warm and humid, with chances for showers and thunderstorms likely. That’s what happens when you get those summer-like temperatures. Not every day will be a washout though and there will be plenty of opportunities to be poolside. The startContinue reading “Summer Vacation 2026: A Much-Needed Reset Coming!”
Kicking Off the Summer (menu) at Cutie’s!
We have finally reached the end of the month, and that calls for celebration. I took advantage of amazing Sunday afternoon weather to go to Cutie’s to make a selection off of the new “A Cutie Summer” menu. I’m hyping that PB&J latte like crazy and I will get it tomorrow night at Bible Study.Continue reading “Kicking Off the Summer (menu) at Cutie’s!”
May going out like a Lamb!
We are in the last weekend of May, and I couldn’t ask for more beautiful weather. The month started off cool and damp, the way that May 2025 ended. Some of us even saw snow flurries that first weekend. This month brought many good days yet there were bad days as well. I made the most ofContinue reading “May going out like a Lamb!”
What Are Your 15 Minutes at Greensburg Toastmasters?
It felt great to be back at Greensburg Toastmasters on Wednesday night. The last two meetings I had missed. The first time was because I wanted to visit the Beaver Area club which meets on the same night as Greensburg. I had a great time there. The last meeting I missed was due to anContinue reading “What Are Your 15 Minutes at Greensburg Toastmasters?”
Feeling an Ocean Breeze at Caleese Coffee!
The conference wrapped up Sunday morning, but not without a little networking and breakfast. We shared of our best takeaways at the Dubois/State College table. Wanting to follow my own lead and set my own agenda, I left a little bit before 10am. Unlike Friday afternoon, there was no traffic on the parkway for meContinue reading “Feeling an Ocean Breeze at Caleese Coffee!”
Life Update
Even though I’ve put up a few blogs this month, I figured I will share a little life update this evening. This has been an active start to the month so far as my focus has been on appointments and a speech project. I’ll give that speech tomorrow night at Laurel Highlands, plus get nominatedContinue reading “Life Update”
Cutie’s and Church!
Bible Study at Cutie’s is back, and this time it may be complemented by a return to regular church attendance. I may even consider returning to my previous church. Victoria led the study and did a bang-up job as always, as we started with a song before she began by reading from Ephesians. I broughtContinue reading “Cutie’s and Church!”
