Memorial Day

Since it's Memorial Day, I would like to make this post about all the brave soldiers that lost their life defending this great country that I call home. Let's give them and their families a moment of silence.

It's a...

The moment of truth is finally here! Boy or Girl? First, let me post a pic of the beautiful cake that our sweet neighbor made. (Thanks Norma, It looked and tasted amazing!)                                   Isn't it just gorgeous? I, of course, did some teasing before I actually announced it on Facebook and Instagram. I mean, what kind of surprise doesn't have some good ole teasing? ;)                                                                 BOY O R GIRL?   PINK O R BLUE? Okay, by now you are probably pulling your hair out and about to throw whatever device you are reading this on...so I guess I should tell you... Are you sure you want to know?  Okay, then here it is... It's  A...                       BOY!!!!!! Yes, I am going to have another nephew! We are all so excited and ready for October to come around so we can meet him! Congrats Kk and Jon, I am so happy for y'all!

Dating is hard...

 It's true. Dating is hard, but it's even harder if you have no idea what you are doing. Like me, for instance. I, honestly, have no idea what I am doing. I have had boyfriends before, but I've never been on a date or done the "huggy/kissy" stuff that boyfriends and girlfriends usually do. In fact, that stuff kind of makes me uncomfortable. I mean I would love to have a boyfriend, but I guess I want one that's kind of like me in a way. One that's shy, awkward, and would like to take things slow...really slow. I would want us to be friends first and then if it turns into something more then I'll take it.  I have tried dating sites, but most boys on there creep me out. They ask me really inappropriate questions and are really pushy to meet me in person so I would really prefer to meet someone in real life. I think I've decided to just stick with homeschooling so meeting someone at school is out of the question. Even if I don't find anyone to d

How I flooded the kitchen...

  So I woke thinking I'm going to have a nice and productive day. I get out of bed, get dressed, and go downstairs for some coffee (which, by the way, was delish!) While I'm waiting for the Keurig to heat up the coffee and pour it into my coffee cup, I decided to load and start the dishwasher. I knew the sink was stopped up, but what I didn't know was that you are not supposed to use the dishwasher when the sink is stopped up. Whoopsie Doodles...   I start the dishwasher, fix my coffee, and sit down in the living room still thinking that it's going to be a completely normal day. Boy was I wrong! All of a sudden, I heard water hitting the floor so I ran to the kitchen to see what it was and there is like an inch of water covering the floor. I rushed upstairs to grab some towels and call my mom to ask what was wrong with it. Isn't it funny how, even when you're fully grown, if you are in trouble you instantly call your mom? Anyway, she asked if I had started th

A letter to my future husband.

 I don't know who you will be. I don't know what your interests will be. I don't know what age we will be when we meet. I don't know where or how we will meet. The one thing I do know and I am certain will never change is the love I have for you. I have prayed so many times asking God to bless me with a wonderful man that will love me and our children, and never do anything to hurt us. I know my prayers will be answered soon. It could be tomorrow or five years from now, but I know my prayers will be answered. Love is a waiting game and it's always worth the wait!   One thing that has kept positive through this waiting game is a dream I had three years ago. Jesus held my hand and told me that I was going to marry a wonderful man. That's how I know you will be the answer to my prayers. I am so excited to meet you and get to know you. I can't wait to be your wife and as your future wife I promise to do the following things: I promise to be there for

Sunday!

It turns out I have to wait until Sunday before I can say what  it is, but I can post a pic of the cupcakes! They turned out so pretty! Comment your guess and come back on Sunday to see if you're right!  Lots of Love,  Meagan :)                                                                              

What will it be?

My sister is expecting her second child in October and tonight we find out if it is a boy or a girl! I am extremely excited! She thinks it's a boy while I think it's a girl. She already has a three year old son so, of course, we are all hoping for a girl, but we will be just as happy, if it's a boy! Either way, it will be loved and that's all that matters! We will be having a small gender reveal party at 5:00, so it's getting close. If you are not familiar with gender reveal parties, let me explain.      It's pretty much like any other party. You have your guests, decorations, food, balloons, and lots of picture taking! The main theme is pink and blue so you can have a cake that is pink or blue inside or a balloon release. Everyone can find out all at once or the parents could be the only ones to know and just let the guests be surprised. In this case, we will all be surprised and it will be cupcakes with blue or pink icing inside! I will post a pic of the cup

Sorry!

Hi, everyone! I know I haven't posted in a while, but that should all change after school gets out! I've been trying to catch up on my school work and finish up my exams since the last day of school is tomorrow!!! I have an interesting topic I would really like to share with everyone so stay tuned! Lots of Love, Meagan :)

The quest for a healthier me!

Unfortunately, I love junk food, soft drinks, sweets, pretty much anything that will cause you to gain weight just by looking at it, but I've decided that enough is enough. I can not treat my body like this for the rest of my life. I am going to do one of the hardest things imaginable...go on a diet. That means no chips, cookies, cake, chocolate, coke...Starting to look like just about anything that starts with a "C", Ha! Though, I have to say that I am quite proud of myself today! I have not had any sort of coke product, just water! However, since I am so addicted to caffeine, I get a migraine every time I decide to cut out decaffeinated drinks which REALLY sucks, but that's the only bad thing about it. Food is my main issue, but I think if I stick with water, cut out junk food, and start eating more fruits and veggies then I can manage! I just need to stay positive and keep track of everything I eat, but that doesn't mean there won't be cheat days. ;)  I

One more year...Just one more year...

School...ugh...I hate that word so much! Luckily, I will be starting my last first day of school in August, but even that isn't very comforting to me. The reason I am so stressed out about school is because I am caught in a major dilemma. Should I stick with homeschooling or should I go back to brick-and-mortar school? Either, I get up super early and have a lot of social interaction or I continue to sleep until 9:00, but have no social interaction except with my family. Both have pros and cons, but which one would suit me more now that anxiety is (somewhat) under control. With brick-and-mortar, I will be able to get some friends and go to my senior prom. With home-school, I won't have to worry about a dress code and embarrassing myself in front of others. Hmm...Decisions...Decisions... Whichever one I choose, I know that God will help me get through it and that's all that matters to me at the moment. Until I decide for sure, I will continue to pray and seek advice from o

Why having a mental illness isn't so bad.

Selective Mutism Social Anxiety Generalized Anxiety Disorder Major Depressive Disorder Attention Deficit Disorder Emetophobia Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Yes, I have all of these.  Mental Illness is hell to deal with, but having all of these illnesses made me a much stronger person. From panic attacks to self injury to suicidal thoughts, I have survived them all. Sure, I have to work twice as hard just to get out of bed and get through the day, but I've come to realize that having a mental illness (or multiple mental illnesses) really isn't as bad as most would think. Personally, the number one positive thing that comes to mind when I think about my mental illnesses: Compassion. Each one has helped me see the world through other people's eyes. It has made me want go out help people who are suffering from the same problems that I am. I just want to let people know that if you're struggling with a mental illness, you are not alone and you will

Get to know me!

Hi, everyone! Since this my very first blog post, I will put down a few facts about me so y'all can get to know me a little better. 1. My name is Meagan (pronounced May-gan) 2. I live in Georgia, but I am originally from Mississippi. 3. I am a horror movie fanatic. 4. I love to watch football and my favorite team is the Mississippi State Bulldogs. (Hail State!) 5. I suffer from social anxiety, depression, and emetophobia. (More info on these later.) I created this blog for three main reasons: I love to write and I figured a blog would be the perfect opportunity to do so. I want to keep track of EVERYTHING that goes on in my life (engagement, marriage, pregnancy, birth, so on and so forth.) I love reading other blogs and they inspired me to create my own. I know this first post is a little boring, so I will put a funny picture down below. :)
