2025 is drawing to a close, and that means it’ll soon be time for me to post my top ten from the past year. The best (and worst) from 2025 will be posted to Stylish on December 23. Some of the highlights (and lowlights) will include: Yesterday, I began my Christmas shopping and got aContinue reading “My South Hills Christmas Shopping Trip!”

Onward and Upward at 2025 Winter TLI!
On Wednesday night, I served as Table Topics Master at our Greensburg Toastmasters meeting. I didn’t answer any of the questions myself. However in this blog, I will answer one of them. My question and answer I had for it will be at the end of this blog. Today, I’m putting together my Christmas list.Continue reading “Onward and Upward at 2025 Winter TLI!”
Grinch Sunday!
It’s December and I’m trying to post 20 blogs this month, because it just wouldn’t be Christmas without posting about it. Even though I won’t make it to 200 this year, it’s still been a good 2025… political drama aside. This morning, I worked off some of that Thanksgiving Turkey by riding the indoor cycleContinue reading “Grinch Sunday!”
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. The changes that were made were not going to be in my best interest. I tried to embrace the change, butContinue reading “Bridge Between Two Eras!”
Finding Uncommon Leaders at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters!
We were a virtual crowd on Tuesday night at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters. That meant I could stay warm and cozy while attending the meeting, as it felt more like January than November. Our theme was “Finding Uncommon Leaders”. We got off to a late start and had to make some adjustments to our agenda, butContinue reading “Finding Uncommon Leaders at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters!”
Wrapping Up The Dinner Series at Primanti’s!
After spending the later half of the afternoon in the Laurel Highlands, I was off to Greensburg to meet Mr. Clougherty for our last dinner meeting of the year. We met at Primanti’s as originally planned. Kevin is busy coaching middle school and had a meet at McKeesport. We met for dinner at 6. Thus,Continue reading “Wrapping Up The Dinner Series at Primanti’s!”
Visiting the Neighborhood and My Little Stars Hollow!
My original plans for Thursday as I was still on my week off were to go into Pittsburgh and visit one of the museums. I was thinking about going to the Andy Warhol Museum. But between the cost of admission and parking downtown, I was looking for a more cost-friendly option. The Pittsburgh Zoo andContinue reading “Visiting the Neighborhood and My Little Stars Hollow!”
Finding a College Connection at Johnstown Toastmasters!
My recap of Tuesday night’s Johnstown Toastmasters meeting is coming but before that, my “cold open”. It took me a while, but I’m on my way with the Gilmore Girls rewatch. I started it last Sunday, the 25th anniversary of the Gilmore Girls pilot. Currently, I am working my way through season one. This afternoon,Continue reading “Finding a College Connection at Johnstown Toastmasters!”
My Favorite Things at Greensburg Toastmasters!
Our Greensburg Toastmasters meeting was a success last night, despite the small turnout and one speaker having to postpone until the next meeting. It was nothing our group couldn’t handle. Four of us attended in person with the three usual suspects joining us online via Zoom. I will be ending my speaking streak and goingContinue reading “My Favorite Things at Greensburg Toastmasters!”
Need a Vacation at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters?
My feature presentation will begin shortly, but I want to start off this blog by mentioning the reboot of King of the Hill. The show was on FOX for many years and came to an end in 2010. There was talk of reviving the show (just like everything else that gets brought back). I watchedContinue reading “Need a Vacation at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters?”
