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 wasn’t 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 doctor’s 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 Cutie’s visit was just me yesterday, I still made the most of my Sunday afternoon. The snow didn’t keep me from going to downtown Greensburg, as it was mostly gone by the time I woke up. I wasn’t 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 doctor’s appointments and the need to rest up for work. We had two guests in attendance, one who’s 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!
I’m into the Morning Edition part of my NPR book now. The show debuted in 1979, and I’m at the part around the beginning of Ronald Reagan’s 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!”
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, Tuesday’s 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!”
Wearing our Hearts on our Sleeves at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters!
It felt good to drive down to Connellsville on Tuesday night for my Laurel Highlands Toastmasters meeting. It felt even better telling myself that I’m all in after a January slump. Whether or not I honor that remains to be seen. Meeting online is nice but it has its setbacks. I can’t tell you howContinue reading “Wearing our Hearts on our Sleeves at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters!”
The February Thaw!
Today is Super Bowl Sunday! I’m not wanting New England to have more wins than Pittsburgh, so I’m rooting for the Seahawks. Seattle’s defense was top ranked in 2013 when they beat Denver, and they were back up there in this wild 2025 season. My best memory of the big game was that time thatContinue reading “The February Thaw!”
