UGH---this is the second time I have typed this---I got all the way done and hit backspace and it went back to the previous page--such BS.
ANYway---Good Afternoon to all my fellow bloggers! How are you today? Me? well thank you for asking! :-)
So after I got off work yesterday I went to pick up my little rockstar Liam and hurried home so I could beat Ross home so that I could clean up the place before he got home and what did I see when I arrived at home??--Ross taking the trash out and our dog Angie---(I had spoken to Ross around 4ish and he said he was still at work)--he told me he had been home ever since I had talked to him earlier in the day---little stinker. And he had already cleaned up the house! Love my boyfriend. :-) His excuse---"I just know that you love coming home to a clean house"---PERFECT! that's my man. So I give Liam a bath and Ross has a bottle ready for him as soon he comes out of the bath tub--so I get his diaper on--give him the bottle and he's fast asleep by 6:45. Highlight of our night??--realizing that Netflix has The Office and Nip Tuck (alll of the seasons of each one) on Instant Queue. Yessssss! Well I was the only one excited about Nip Tuck---I think---actually I know that Ross hates the majority of what I choose to watch on TV---but HEY! if I have to watch endless amounts of sports related shows, movies or video games he can deal with a few tv shows---Right? :-) Thought so.
So we watch a few episodes of The Office--then Ross gets a craving for candy so he leaves and then proceeds to purchase about 20 dollars worth of candy from Walgreens--rent a movie from redbox--Legion to be exact--and then about 30 minutes into the movie were both passed out. Exhausted!
So Liam woke up bright and early at 5:22 am this morning--about an hour earlier than what he normally does so needless to say I'm dragging today. I get to work later than usual---but not late by actual scheduled hours. duh. :-) that would never happen. Went to Sams to buy some supplies for work--and then came back to mound of things to do!--Love it! :-) and now I have all my paperwork done for the day and just doing some odd jobs around the workplace--cleaning and what not mostly. What is on the agenda for tonight you may ask??
After work I'm going to go pick up Liam--go home--bath time for baby--get him squared away in bed and then hang out with my man or maybe hang out with some friends! who knows!--but tomorrow is FRIDAY!!! last day of the work week--this week has flown by it seems.
All I have to say is I really hope tomorrow I don't read headlines about another oil spill somewhere in the US! This whole Oil spill mess in the gulf has just got me so flabbergasted--how can people be so freaking stupid! BP i'm talking about YOU! next time use better materials in the front end and maybe we can avoid screw ups like this. Idiots. Obama its time for you to flex those presidential muscles of yours instead of just sitting by and watching all that happen---I would hate to see how he would handle something like a terrorist attack--you just going to sit by and watch all your people get picked off---lets hope not. Well at least BP appointed a new CEO right?---but not before you give a multi-million dollar pension to the old ceo--hmmm last time I checked---you guys were about 30 billion dollars in the hole---wow---good job. Keep on selling those assets you have because you can't have anymore of my money for your screw up.
And on a postive note--I hope that everyone has a wonderfull evening!--more to come tomorrow! Stay green and stay positive! LOVE!

July 28, 2010
Well yesterday was pretty productive--as productive as you can be on a Tuesday I guess. Got home from work last night and went and hung out with some friends after putting my little man to bed--Ross stayed at home and caught up on his NCAA football 2011 online dynasty--oh yes--I myself have never really gotten into the whole sports genre until Ro came along---if there were classifications--then I guess I would be considered a freshman--lets hope I am more involved with this then my actual schooling--! But now seeing how into it that Ro gets it makes me want to pick a team--and have favorite players--and be completely obnoxious to the person next to me when we score! WOO! I think he loves "tutoring" me on the history of the teams and their players--I never knew there could be so much drama in sports--my guess is that's why I enjoy it so much now! :-) So I went over to my friends house and watched them play Mario somthing or another on the Wii and I think I got a little dizzy and disoriented. While on my way home I called Ro to tell him that I was on my way and he told me that Liam had been awake ever since I left the house... :-( WAAAAAA! It made me a little upset that wasn't there while he was awake--especially since I hadn't seen him since yesterday afternoon at lunch--I just realize that Liam won't be this little forever and I want to cherish each and every moment that I have with him while he's still little---while i'm still able to hold him like a baby and have him stare up at me like i'm the only thing that matters in the world---*sigh*---LOVE him. When I got home Ro had the couches pushed together in the living room ready to watch Repo-men with Jude Law--from what I remember about the movie (I was exhausted) was pretty good--I'm going to have to go back and re-watch it but Jude Law sure did beef up for this roll---nice change from his pansy boy look in The Holiday with Kate Winslett. And now here I am at 11:00 am in the morning--I have gotten all my paperwork done for the morning--and tyring to determing if I want to actually eat lunch today at home--or do I want to go to Hastings and sell these dvds that have been in my car for over a week now---I won't decide what to do till the last minute--I'm horrible about changing my mind several times before I actually come down to doing it---it's a curse----just like how I can't help but be 30 min ++ early to EVERYTHING that I do---I would like to thank my mother for enstilling that in me---I really don't know what I would do without her. :-)
On todays agenda?---work---lunch/hastings---work---pick up Liam from the sitter---and then hopefully beat Ro home from work so that I can clean up the house a little before he shows up. He had cleaned and rearranged the furniture in our place while he was off work yesterday (another curse---we both get bored with the same layout after about a month)---so now Liam has more room to crawl around and stand up--we don't have a lot of extra space to work with in our place so we do with what he have---makes it worse that the whole place is tile and hardwood so were constantly worried about him busting his noggin on the hard floor---thank goodness for ALLLLLL the blankets we got at the baby showers. :-)
And to top of the evening--hanging out with my man and probably ordering a movie off of Zune--love my life. :-)

The beginning
So I'm starting this blog because I have a ton of free time and I thought that sharing my every day experiences about work, relationships, every day news, and being a mom might be insightful for some people.
My name is Meagan, and I'm 24 from Arkansas. I have a 8 month old little boy named Liam.
Just to set the scene this blog is mostly dedicated to giving you a glimpse of what has been happing up unitl now.
Ross (my boyfriend and father of my child) and I have been together now for just over 2 years--although we have known each other for about 3 years. We got pregnant and now here we are with a beautiful little boy. We started out as friends, which I believe is the only way relationships can really survive and prosper, not to say that I haven't seen other relationships work--but in my experience I would much rather really know the person before committing myself to a relationship---whats the point? I get it---the unknown is very seducing---and I have fallen victim to that on more than one occassion--and then left emotionally battered and bruised from either the lies--deceit--or just the "up and leaving" all together--not to say that I myself am a saint because believe me when I say that I am the farthest from that. I have brought my fair share of heartbreaks over the course of my very short 24 years of life---not proud of in any sense of the word--but we will save all that mess for a rainy day. :-)
So now here I am working full time, being a mom, social butterfly, and trying to be the best girlfriend that I can be. All that is so tiring. I started working full time about 3 weeks ago--i'm the facility manager for a self storage facility and I also dabble a little in the PA (personal assistant) for a lady that I work with---it's soo much fun and keeps me pretty busy during the day--which I love!--makes my days go by so fast-which is wonderful because i'm ready to get home to my little man--he's on this crazy stupid sleep patern though--from 6pm-6am--kinda makes a little crazy that I can't really do anything as far as errands go--oh well!--at least he' s up and ready to go in the morning when I take him to the babysitter. There needs to be about another 8 hours in the day--especially for working moms.
Ross is off work today (ross is a manager of a restaurant--and his 12 hour work days are ridiculous) and so on my lunch break i'm going to meet up with him and my little man and probably grab a bite to eat at one of the fast growing popular restaurants here in town.
Last night I got home and Ross was busy cooking dinner for us--rib eyes with mac and cheese--yummmm. We scarfed that down like it was our last meal and then I rocked my little man to sleep---well attempted to anyway--he had a different idea that included romping around in his crib until he was exhausted and passed out on his face--don't worry--I rolled him over. :-) *sigh* that little man has my heart wrapped around his tiny little finger. Ross sister Hilary came to see us and her boyfriend Zac and his brother came over and it was wonderful to see everyone. I haven't had the chance to really catch up with anyone since I have been working so it was great of them to pay us a visit. Then to top off my night--I fell asleep watching the news--what's happened to me?! I used to fall asleep after a long night of hanging out with my friends and playing cards--swapped that for hanging out with my best friend (Ross) and my little cuddler Liam---Grade A swap if I say so.
Okay well I must be going for now but till tomorrow think about this---think of something that you enjoy more than anything in this world---what would you swap it for??
