Motivation Mishaps

So, lately..... I have been...... what's the word...... slacking.

I have been to the gym once.

And I have eaten everything that hasn't eaten me.

I have gained 3 pounds.

I know why my motivation left, I just don't know how get it back.

Most people love me (or tolerate me) for my honesty and openness. So I am going to be both things, open and honest. I could say my lack of motivation came from anywhere. But, if we are being honest, it came from a boy letting me down. You don't need the details, and this isn't the place to air them, but let's just say it went from really good to really bad really fast. And I was not really happy.

When bad things happen, it is so easy to go back to old, bad habits and I have many old, bad habits. Two of the main ones are sitting on my butt and watching TV and eating my feelings, which I have done the for the last few days.

Even thought I'm over the initial shock and embarrassment of the situation, however my motivation is still not here.

SO why I have learned some valuable lessons....

.... my motivation is still lost.

So what do you do to find motivation again..... Really....I need help.

CMA Fest Weekend

I am a big country music fan. Plus I'm a big fan of live music. Also I am a huge fan of Music City. So it's a no brainer that CMA Fest is one of my favorite things on the planet. I feel in love with CMA Fest last year when I went. It was amazing. This year I wasn't sure I was getting to go. I was a little bummed. However, by pure accident I ordered tickets for the Opry to see Carrie Underwood on Friday June 7. I didn't realize that it was CMA Fest weekend until I tried to book a hotel and there were not hotels in Nashville. Oops. So I booked a hotel in Brentwood and decided to make the most out of my happy mistake! So Friday, we rolled into down in a ran storm and found our hotel. We changed clothes and got ready then headed out to the Opry. We went to Orpy Mills Mall first, I hit up the Vera Bradley Outlet and got some sweet deals. Then we went to the Opry. It was a great show, I did miss Little Jimmy Dickens...

Miss Megan's Favorite Things

I blogged about some of my favorite things before, but it kind wasn't a good blog and I quit after a few things, so I thought I'd do it again. If I was rich, or had a super famous blog I'd give something away. But I am neither rich or a famous blogger, so therefore you can just read about my favorite things and maybe purchase them for yourself. Trust me, I think they are awesome or I wouldn't be wasting my time telling you about them. Julep Deep Clean This is my newest find. I got it in my Julep Maven box (I'll get to that in a second). This sells for $40.00 on their website . This is an excellent face cleaner. It cleans all the make up off your face, literally. It smells a little bit like furniture polish, but I actually kind of like it. Back to the Julep Maven box, if you have 19.99 laying around every month this is a good investment. You take a short quiz, they tell you what your style profile is. Every mon...

Joy

Before school started this morning, during morning assembly, a kindergarten boy came up to me with a stamp in his hand and held it out. He wanted to stamp my hand. Of course, I stuck my hand out with a smile on my face and said "yes! I would love a stamp! Thank you!" Then he proceeded to stamp my hand. It was lime green and maybe half an inch. It read "joy". You can still barely see it on my hand at 4:36 in the afternoon (and many times of washing my hands during the day). I find it ironic that the stamp he had today said "joy". I could paint you a word picture of this kindergartener and there's many things I could say about him. Like most six year old boys you will encounter, he is full of wonder, life, emotions, questions and most importantly, full of joy. I could have told the boy I didn't want a stamp, but you see that would have killed his joy. I'm sure he didn't know it when he stamped my hand this morning that his s...
