I'll Never Get Tired Of

I saw a post like this on Neely's blog and thought it would be nice to do some personal posts like this one. So here it goes.

I'll never get tired of...

Smelly dog kisses

Falling asleep to a rainstorm

Sunsets in St. Augustine

Writing on a Sunday morning

Hubby helping with chores and telling me to relax

At home yoga sessions

Splitting the last cookie with Dee

Sending silly videos to my sister to make her laugh

Taking 10,000 pictures of my food/outfit/dogs to get the perfect shot



What will you never get tired of?


Sunday Social

How's your weekend going? One more day to relax before heading back to work, I'll take it! Today I'm linking up with Neely for Sunday Social, a few more questions to get to know me better. So grab a mug of tea, coffee, soda, whatever you like and stay for a while. :)

1. What is the name of your blog and how did you come up with it??
Just Me aghan... It took me quite a while to figure this one out, I knew I wanted it to be very unique and relate to me. So being as my parents tried to put every letter in the alphabet into my name (Meaghan), it worked out pretty well. Just Me aghan, Just Me again...you get it, you love it, I know it. ;)

2. What do you love the most about blogging??
Writing and getting to "meet" new friends. It's nice to know someone is actually reading it and I'm not just journaling for myself. I can't wait to actually meet some blogger friends at the Central Florida Bloggers Conference next weekend.

3. What are your 2 favorite posts you've written?
Hmmmm... that's a hard one.  
Pink Lemonade Cupcakes was a fun one. I really enjoy baking (mainly the eating part at the end) and this recipe was delish!

&...


This Neutrogena Product Review turned out really well. I'm not pushing anything here, I just really like how this post looks (not making $ off it, just reviewing). I kind of impressed myself and set the bar for next time I do a beauty review. 

4. What is something you'd want to tell someone just starting out in blog world?
Going along with the next question (5)...write for you. You may not have a lot of views right away, but they will come. And the ones that actually follow and keep up with your blog will be involved and inspire you just as much as you do for them. 
That's what blogging is about to me, inspiring others to in turn be inspired even more myself. 

5. Biggest blogging learning experience you've had?
Write for you not the viewer. I'm learning that when I try to write what I think readers will want to see, I don't get as much feedback as posts that are more heartfelt and inspiring.

6. Give us 3 blogs we NEED to be following that you love. 
I actually did a post this week on my 3 faves, so check it out. I love these girls!

Thanks for reading, if you link up leave yours below so I can read yours too!

Me, Myself, and I Link Up Party!

I recently discovered Danielle's blog, Framed Frosting.  She puts up great DIY's and is a very inspirational and encouraging blogger.  Danielle and a couple of other bloggers have come up with a way to get to know the people behind the blogs with a monthly link up party.  Bloggers who want to join answer 5 questions in a post to let everyone know a little more about you.

So here is my RSVP to the party. :)


What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?
I was our high school newspaper editor my Junior and Senior years of high school, I would love to revisit that old dream and start a publishing company to help new writers get published. And of course, one day publish a book of my own.  One day...


If you had only six months left to live, what would you do with the time?
Travel the world with loved ones and try all kinds of different foods and try as many new things as possible for the first 4/5 months and spend the last month or two with family and my love.

If a front page news article was written on you, what would the headline be?
If this were a dreamed up, I wish kind of article: "Woman buys 100 Acre Farm to Humanely Take Care of Stray Dogs."  I am a dog lover, who has been forbidden not to adopt another pet!
Me with my loves!


What is your biggest pet peeve?
Poor manners! Specifically being late, chewing with your mouth open &/or making obnoxious cow slopping noises, and people who interrupt you in the middle of speaking. RUDE!


What is your favorite chick flick movie?
I definitely have more than one, but the most played movies (it's a tie) whenever Dee is working late would be Pride & Prejudice, and Eat, Pray, Love.  I am obsessed with Keira Knightley, Mr. Darcy is to die for, and who doesn't want to oggle over Javier Bardem a little bit. 


If you join in, let me know, I'd love to see a little more about you too!
