Forget a man, walk like a bird

There is so much to learn in new media journalism. It is such an ever evolving world. What's really funny is that I am learning new tricks to to apply to old tricks in so many ways. I am pleasantly surprised with the knowledge I have already earned. I feel fresh validation for my time spent interning and freelancing as a writer. I am so thankful for this. The best thing about this though is that my want for knowledge is increasing too. The course material is building already and I have a list generating on things to really remember pulled from various class resources. The fountain is trickling.

Big question: Can you really learn it all? Answer: Not sure. I spent a chunk of time walking today and taking in nature's glory. On my journey met two friends and as I watched one of them agilely maneuver over the construction fence. Even with cars speeding past mere inches from him, he safely walked crane-bird like towards the water unaffected. I exhaled with him long enough to appreciate it and take his and his lady friend's picture. If just every once in a while the seemingly unmissable obstacles are defeated in such a way, I hope I am as graceful and unaffected too.

Inspired,

Simple blessings

I’m lying in bed, next to a snoring husband and my baby girl dogter sprawled out cozy as can be, while the rain falls down upon our roof. Gone are the days of spending a Saturday night downtown at a club, throwing beers back in a honky think, or galavanting around to anywhere with the lights on. And I’m not mad about it. Not even a little bit. There is tilt no place I’d rather be than with hunter, Roni and our comfy sweet little home happily netflixing and writing this here post. It’s a good feeling indeed. I count my blessings extra on nights like this and say a few additional prayers for love and comfort to continue on. I truly don’t ask for more than health, happiness, and love. Anything else is gravy. To simple blessings for all.

Blogtober Dayyyy 27! A Letter To Your Younger Self

First of all, this is my 203rd post! I slid right on by the day I hit 200, probably in a haze from writing so many days consistently like this. So I am now thrilled to announce I am moving right along and haven't tapped out. For that I have Blogtober 2014 to give credit to. I am so so so determined to meet my goal of writing all 31 days.

Blogtober day 24, One Beauty Product You Can't Live Without

Hands down, lip lip stuff. I've been wearing lipstick since I was approximately age three and I don't plan on stopping any time soon. Its the final step when applying my makeup and my favorite because it completes a look. I mix shades and kinds and styles all the time and the picture above shows what's in my makeup bag any given day. My name is Megan and I cannot live without an array of lipsticks. Hiii Megan. Oh and TGIF y'all! Until we meet agsin, M
