30 Things for Turning 30

I'm 30. I know 30 things.

My 30th birthday was a month ago. I meant to post sooner for this however, tomato, tomahto, September, November.

I am compiling 30 things I feel pretty certain about. You know, since it's legit that I'm like a wise adult officially. I mean, all my cousins who are at least 6 years younger than think I'm 35+ already so there's that.

1. My fave: Water. Drink it, live it, love it.
2. Smile often.
3. Eat breakfast.
4. Read fiction.
5. Don't eat a cookie because it's there. Enjoy treats as just that; a treat that's special and one you can't have any old time.
6. Faith and sweat even a playing field.
7. It's not bad to have 1 credit card for those crazy moments that can come up.
8. Buy the shoes.
9. Eat eggs.
10. Meditate. It's mind, eye, physically opening to much more.
11. Go the distance with education.
12. Laughter is so good and so necessary.
13. Give time to people more than gifts.
14. Traveling really is worth any expense over material purchases.
15. Workout some where, some how, some way.
16. Don't forget where you come from.
17. Work hard, be nice. End of story.
18. You can't unring the bell; think before speaking.
19. Wear the "wrong shade" according to Cosmo if you dig it.
20. Eat clean more than not.
21. Share with a friend. Bring an extra breakfast sandwich for your office buddy.
22. Ask for forgiveness and grant when you can.
23. Stay in touch with your family/friends not in immediate distance.
24. If you can make a living off of a passion do it.
25. Spend time as a server. You'll meet all kinds of people and learn how to hustle.
26. Organize ambitions.
27. Just drive sometimes. Windows down, music up.
28. Send thank you notes.
29. Hug hard and full.
30. Wake up every day and start with gratefulness.

To the next 30, friends.

Until we meet again,
M

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...

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
