Blogotber Day 30- The Facts of Megan

I can't believe Blogtober 2014 is a day from being over. This is like a race that is so close to being done, and you can see the finish line, and you feel this surge of exhilaration and an "I made it!" attitude, while also feeling slightly saddened because it's done. At least, this is what I imagine people who run races feel like.

Anyhow, today we are talking about some facts about me:

-My middle name is Keely and I always get asked if its misspelled on documents and should be Kelly. As if I would misspell my own name on 14 documents back to back...

-I would not live in a cold climate. Snow, below zero, no thank you.

-I have not yet felt California sunshine or Colorado snow.

-But I have had gumbo in New Orleans and a cannoli in little Italy.

-My favorite movie of all time is Dirty Dancing.

-Glitter is my favorite color.

-I don't have a single bottle of perfume in my collection of beauty products.

-I live for picking out my new daily planner every 12-18 months. Like, a lot. I keep a countdown in the current one I use for when I get to pick a new one. I love making lists and outlining plans.

-Twitter is my favorite social media, with Instagram a close second.

-If I could only shop at one store the rest of my life it would be Macy's. Funny thing about this is I hardly go there now, yet I know they would be my choice if told I could only have one place. They have everything!

-I am more controlling than I ever realized. This is what I like to call an area of opportunity.

-Halloween is my favorite holiday out of any other one and I'm excited to come back tomorrow to share my Halloween costume!

Just some simple facts of me. Nice to meet you if you're newly reading, good to see you if you're visiting again.

Until we meet again,

Self care reset

We all hear the buzzwords self care more than ever these days. Every where you turn, a lifestyle blogger, health guru, or magazine article shares insight on ways to treat yo self to some basic T. While I love modern discussions as much as the next girl, I’m aware sometimes it just doesn’t fit and you have to reset what isn’t working. For example, some weeks I am just done by the tine Friday hits. Hell, a rough Wednesday or Thursday has crept in there, too, requiring a pause and reflection for how best to naturally beat a funk or a “feeling of less than stellar”. Here my top self care reset ideas for your consideration: Drink water: Warm it with some lemon, try some green tea for an antioxidant boost, or just plain old room temperature is a sure way to get the boost to feeling a bit better. Face it: Fewer things feel as good as a really great face mask. I love charcoal in particular lately and always feel refreshed and restored and ready to ‘face’ another day. See w...

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. Thank you again for linking this up Helene and Taylor !! Now, on to today's topic: A Letter To Your Younger Self Dear 22-27 year old Meggie, Hey, it's me, 29 year old you. Just wanted to check in and cover a couple things that I've learned to be true, so if you want to go ahead and use this insight sooner, have at it. So a few things still stand that I've mentioned to 17 year old you and as I recounted the ten things I've learned since high school . Please keep drinking water over anything else and avoid the hair bleach. But you know, being 29 and thinking back, the ages 22-27 were a huge chapter of your life a...
