Stress be gone!

It has been quite a hiatus from my blog; most of which is not intentional! Work has eaten me alive and I spent the better portion of the past few weeks sorting out my bosses multi-million GBP pad - probably the nicest townhouse I have ever stepped foot in. House envy much?! Ahh, someday! When I wasn't playing Nate Berkus (another calling in life that I have missed), I was being a little stress head. I have become someone in which I do not entirely recognize - as if I am a former version of the old Meaghan. And I liked the old Meaghan - she was pretty cool!

Amongst my list of worries -
Money - I recently moved and never found anyone to take over my lease in my old flat and was paying two rents. This does have a happy ending and someone has now moved in, only causing me to swallow 1 month rather than a potential 2, but still, those stresses gave me a wrinkle by my right eye. I swear that wasn't there last month!
Friends - How sad when you start to realise that if you were to meet today, you probably wouldn't be friends. But do you just walk away?!? I could never. It totally bums me out though to realise that some people never move on from the petty things; even if they say they do!
Family - I am damned if I do, damned if I don't. OH, and I am also a bitch who has changed and looks down upon everyone. I couldn't be any further from this. Just sad that frustrations could turn into hurtful words which will only continue to cause strain.
Career - Since I was a little girl, I have ALWAYS known exactly what I wanted to do, and what I needed to do to get there. Recently I am having a slight change of heart and am trying to figure out where I want my focus to be. Problem is my focus is EVERYWHERE. I have chosen nearly 17 careers in the past month! I even met with the Director of Marketing and Store Image from Harrods - something that in the past would have most likely been my next job offering, but NOPE...I couldn't articulate what it is that I am looking to do, because I have no FREAKING CLUE! Buying, Visual Merchandising, Operations, Magazine, Sales, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! All I am fully aware of at this moment is that if I cannot make a decision soon, I am going to end up just buoying along the surface...and I am not a surface kind of girl!!!
Love Life - This in itself is probably a NOVEL. (In fact, it is another career I have toyed with as I started to write my story down, and let me tell you, I have a lot to teach today's youth about love, partying, promiscuity, relationships, etc.) Let's see, considering the last date I went on, homeboy made me pay, and the last time I had some "quality time" with a man, it was in fact way too short, way too long ago and he was SHIT. Ugh, the French...so misleading! Needless to say, I am in a lull. I finally started to get over the absolute worst person one can ever get involved in and POOF, its like he knows. He has this alarm clock by his bed and it counts the amount of times I think about him in a day, if the Meg-o-Meter begins to fall, its buzzes and then he decides on that fateful morning that he will call me. JUST to see how I am! LUCKY ME!

But, we can't all be Debbie Downer's so lets look onto the horizon:
Money - It comes and it goes...c'est la vie!
Friends - Focus on the friendships with people in your life in which you get the most out of. Cherish and enjoy.
Family - In this instance, smiling and nodding is encouraged.
Love Life - Throw yourself out there and date new ppl! So I did, and he is INCREDIBLY intelligent. We like that!

  1. I love you and am happy that you met someone intelligent. I, my friend, have not and am having a hard time finding 'normal' guys who clear my non-existent boobs. It's a sad, sad world. Anyway...you keep your head up missy. The world needs more Meaghans...new and old. Miss you a ton!
