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. I was a year out of college at the time and trying to decide what to do with my life. This 14 year old from New JerseyContinue reading “A Cold Weekend Ahead!”

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!”
Happy Thanksgiving at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters!
Tuesday night was my night off and also Laurel Highlands Toastmasters night. We were online which made sense due to the inclement weather. I found a new spot in the house to attend an online meeting as well. When we cleared the spare room out, the purpose was to make room for more seating. WithContinue reading “Happy Thanksgiving at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters!”
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!”
Beginning Season Two of my Gilmore Girls Rewatch!
Winter officially made its arrival this week. Some of us got a dusting of snow, if any. I didn’t even really notice any flurries Sunday night or Monday. 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!”
Out with the Pumpkins, in with the Holidays!
After a busy month of October that was rife with time off and other activities, the last week of the month saw a return to normalcy. It was ordinary, but I welcomed the tranquility. Working on a Friday and Saturday felt weird as I was spoiled during my last few weeks off. But, I’m readyContinue reading “Out with the Pumpkins, in with the Holidays!”
Leaders are Readers at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters!
I returned to Laurel Highlands Toastmasters Tuesday night after missing the last meeting. Two weeks ago I visited the Johnstown club which meets the same night. We met online, which worked for me as it bought me some time to get ready. Last week was unlike any other, with the Fall Symposium on Saturday. IContinue reading “Leaders are Readers at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters!”
Reflections on a Meaningful Fall Vacation
Saturday marked the final day of my Fall vacation. I’ve had a great week off as I’ve been pretty active for most of it. I attended Toastmasters speech contests at Westmoreland County Community College. We had our family reunion on Sunday at Laurel Hill in the same pavilion we’ve had the last five years. IContinue reading “Reflections on a Meaningful Fall Vacation”
