Day 30- Who are you?
My dad use to ask me who do you think you are! I would reply Megan Renae Lindsey! Apparently you are not suppose to answer that question!!! Seriously though, I am many things. Most importantly I am a Jesus lover, Jay lover, mother to the best little girl, indecisive, fun loving woman!

Day 28!!
Day 28- A picture of you last year and now, how have you changed since then?
This picture was more than likely two years ago but I love it!! My hair was sooooo long!!! I really miss it!!
My hair!!! I still not take a normal picture!! The me then and the me now are totally different! Then I was all about work and my family came well wherever they could fit was fine by me! I was still so angry at God! Why I am not sure! My past failures where my decisions not God's!!! Now I am so thankful for God's loving grace! I am so thrilled to have rediscovered my relationship with the One that died for me!!! The me then was an insecure mom! Now I just admit I have no clue what I am doing and pray that God shows me and pray to God I don't screw her up too bad!!! I like the me now much better!!

Day 26!
Day 26- What you think about your friends
They are amazing!!! I love my friends! God has placed amazing people in my life that make my heart smile!!! I have this one friend, Cheryl, who makes me incredibly uncomfortable (in a good way) every time I see her! She challenges me to be a better Christian, friend, person, mom, wife, ect. When she speaks God is speaking! If I am in need of prayer she is my first phone call! When she speaks to God, God answers! On top of all of that she is an amazing photographer! I am incredibly blessed!!!!

Day 25!
Day 25- What I would find in your bag
Normally I do not carry a bag or purse! My little green wallet is sufficient! I can barely keep up with myself let alone a bag. However, it is the last couple weeks of school and I am in heavy procrastination mode (aka study mode)! So for the time being in my bag is my little netbook, 2 very boring beat to heck nursing books, ear phones, blinged out phone, key, pens, work badge, ring box, stethoscope, tampons, checkbook, map of Vegas, receipts, grocery list, and lip gloss.

Day 24!
Day 24- A letter to your parents
Dear Mom and Dad,
Well who woulda thunk that I would turn out semi normal! I am such an insane combination of the two of you! I got the good and the bad! Mom, I cherish sleep almost as much as you do and my heart is as sensitive as yours. Thank God I got dad's thick skin to guard it! Dad, I got your sense of humor (which can get me into trouble) and I got your inability to talk about feelings! That trait just hacks Jay off!!!! I would not trade my make up for anything! Thanks to the two of you, I honestly believe I can accomplish ANYTHING!!! You two always believed in me! You always offered honest encouragement! I may not have been the best at what ever I tried but that did not matter you were just proud that I was out there trying. If I failed it was ok cause I at least gave it my all. You two had a way to guide me without hovering and intruding. If I failed, I failed and I was able to experience the consequences is the safest of places, ya'lls arms! During my most epic fail of all time, I had never felt such love like ya'll gave! To that I am so incredibly thankful! You two had such amazing dreams for me and there was no, not accomplishing them. I hope and pray that I can somehow love Lindsey as much as ya'll loved me! I am not sure that is even possible! I know I was no where near the easiest child to raise but I am so thankful that ya'll did it with such grace and awesomeness! Thank you for all the sacrifices you made to help me be who I am today! I know the sacrifices were great and I never ever take them for granted! I am the special, awesome person I am today because of you two!! And I am awesome!!!!
I love ya'll so much and miss ya'll terribly!

Day 23!
Day 23- Something you crave for a lot
This should be hanging in my house!! I crave coffee and sleep these days! I rediscovered my love for coffee and now I can not get enough! It is so bad that the first thing my daughter says in the morning is "momma coffee"! She knows when momma does not have her coffee, momma is incredibly unpleasant! So all I can say is Hi, my name is Megan and I am a caffeine addict! I will get started on those 12 steps tomorrow!

Day 22!
Day 22- What makes you different from everyone else
Hmmmmm. . . . .
I am incredibly ADHD (squirrel). Not the ADHD you say you have when you are not concentrating but the real not over diagnosed kind!!! For years I saw it as a horrible diagnosis that made life a pain. Not too long ago I was talking to someone about this little pain in my life and they looked at me and asked me what was good about being ADHD. I was taken back by that question. They then read me an excerpt from some book about how being ADHD has given me gifts and unique perspectives! And that little excerpt was right! I am so passionate! Little things get me so excited! When I was in Vegas I was gambling and won like ten bucks but you would have thought that I won the world! Life is exciting to me! I can juggle multiple things at one time! I notice random things that others may not even notice! I know how to have fun and enjoy the here and now! I don't worry as much as most. Lets be honest I am too distracted most times to have time to worry. Being ADHD and a mom is perfect! I love to get in and get dirty with my little girl! I am not worried about looking cool! Lets face it for years I was the ADHD dork and never quite fit in so why start worrying about now!
So yeah. . . . . . my ADHD makes me different from everyone else! I had some pretty awesome parents that allowed the good stuff from being ADHD hang out! Heck my husband loves me because of my ADHD! He says when I take my medicine I am not as much fun! So, now no more shame but only total celebration of this diagnosis! One of the best gifts God could have given me!!!

Day 19- Nicknames you have; why do you have them
I don't have a whole lot of nick names. I remember when I was little my uncle Steve calling me megger and for some reason I loved it and still do love it!

As annoying as it was when I was little now when my dad calls me megonous my heart smiles!
Day 20- Someone you see yourself marrying/being with

Day 20- Someone you see yourself marrying/being with
There is no one I would rather be with than this sexy man! There is something about those ugly green pants that makes me fall more and more in love! I could go on and gush but I will save you the throw up! Just know that I truly have the best husband!!!

Day 13!
Day 13- A letter to someone who has hurt you
Dear washer, dryer, or sock monster
I desperately at the end of my laundry day want to have an empty basket! I want to see the shiny white bottom of my basket congratulating me on a job well done! However, you have hurt me deeply! You have eaten random socks and now I have unmatched socks covering the beautiful white bottom of my basket! I ask that you stop your dirty filthy ways and STOP eating my socks! Please grant me the joy of having an empty basket one day!
Sincerely,
Megan

Day 12- How you found out about Tumblr and why you made one
I am not too sure what Tumblr is but I am assuming it is similar to Blogspot. I came across Blogspot from back in the day when I had a Xanga account! Everyone was changing to another blogging site so when I had a baby I decided I would try this blogging thing again! I started this blog to keep family updated on Lindsey but it has turned more into a good way to get thoughts out! I love doing it I hope you love reading it!

Day 11!
Day 11- Another picture of you and your friends
These two ladies are some of the most positive people I know!! I can be such a realist sometimes and these ladies force me to look to Jesus and be positive! I hope one day when I finally am an adult I can be half the women these two are! Plus they a freakin' hilarious and beautiful! Talk a bout mentors I got two!!! 
The Payne's and the Fay's are our game night buddies! No one can play board games like them! We love their company and are missing them terribly right now! Stupid schedules! Plus they love our little girl so much! She is never a burden or a pest to them! I love people who love my little girl! I guess if our family wants to be stubborn and live in TX and AR Jay and I are very lucky to have some very special people in our lives! God is good all the time and all the time God is good!!!

Day 10!
Day 10- Songs you listen to when you are Happy, Sad, Bored, Hyped, Mad
Music used to be extremely important to me! I would search i tunes for hours for the perfect tune to tickle my ears. Now a days I just do not have the time. I miss new music that makes my heart smile. Music has the ability to express emotions that one can not put into words. Worship music has the ability to take me to a place closer to God. I love the power that music has. Right now the radio and Pandora are my main source. The Jars of Clay station is my favorite. To study Surgarland keeps me focused. I need to rediscover my love affair with music!!!
