Settling In


I'm back home for the rest of the summer months. So far I've spent most of the time in exactly that, my home. We are currently in the process of redecorating parts of our house. My mom and I have lots of projects cooking. My activities at home this summer include going shopping for home things, walking Jack, watching new movies on Netflix, having a wacky sleep schedule, going to the gym, and most importantly trying to do nothing at all.

Here's a new lavender wreath in my room, made in France and found in your local Target.
 I've been spending time with this pup.
Unfiltered pile on my desk. I'm in the constant battle of sentimentality (needed to get rid of stuff).
(Today my mom and I started reorganizing our bookshelves. This is the midway point. We took off most of the book covers of the Tom Clancy and Brad Thor books. Who knew such dignified book covers were underneath the plastic sleeves? We've also decided that we need white bookshelves.)


I repainted my bathroom a lovely shade of lilac last summer. Last week I finally found wall decor from Target that works! Once I get the shelves organized I'm going to post more photos.

You could say that I'm settling in, but settling in has also meant changing and redecorating. Now, I think I'll get back to Netflix and call it a night.

Fresh Start

Shhh.. Let's keep it a secret that this is my fourth blog. To be fair, I started my first blog when I was 13 on Blogger. Then I tried a Wordpress in 10th grade, and then I moved back to Blogger. I've been blogging at Love, Megan Marie since I was 17. When I went away to London and got my blog remodeled, I wanted to keep the design. Now I went ahead and started this blog, which I've dubbed "Everything Megan." To keep on this history of my past blogs theme, Everything Megan was the name of my Matmice website when I was 11. What's Matmice you ask? Well, it's a now defunct website that you could use to create your own website as a kid. I loved working on those sites. Then I discovered blogging, and Matmice shut down forever. 

I've been thinking for months about what I wanted to do blogging wise. I've liked the blogging break I've had this year, but I've missed it. I feel like I have an unique voice. I also miss having an outlet to write down my thoughts, and a place to record my life. Plus my mom is always hoping for a new post from me and I can't let her down! So here's my new site. I'm looking forward to starting something brand new.
