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!”

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.

May going out like a Lamb!
I’ve been reading Proverbs this month and only have two chapters left. I’ve been reading a chapter every day for 31 days. As we turn the calendar to June, I will be starting in John. While it’s been good to commit to reading the Word, there is always room for improvement. Taking notes from theContinue 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.

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.

You Can’t Do Everything!
In the last few months, I’ve been able to put together a consistent exercise routine. I’ve been able to weather the storms of January when we had extreme cold. In addition, I have also broken the curse of the New Year’s Resolution. In fact, my visits to the gym have either increased or have stayedContinue reading “You Can’t Do Everything!”
Taking the Scenic Route!
This blog post is a follow-up to yesterday’s lunch date at Brady’s Restaurant in Acme. Pennsylvania Route 31 has many attractions to offer, as does Westmoreland County if you look hard enough. Anytime that my family and I venture out to the Laurel Highlands, we get there by way of PA 31. Occasionally, when weContinue reading “Taking the Scenic Route!”
Three Coffee Shops I’d Love to Visit!
Easter Sunday went well for us! I took some time to rest early in the afternoon so I could have time to enjoy our company. We had an amazing spread with ham, potatoes, vegetable casserole, and rolls. Afterwards, there was plenty of dessert to go around. We had two of my grandparents’ Easter desserts, heavenlyContinue reading “Three Coffee Shops I’d Love to Visit!”
