Silly happy things

I like to talk about things that make me happy because it makes me happy. It's like a happy cycle. When I need a little pick me up, I just pull one of these out for a quick smile.

Meeting (and re-meeting) bloggers!


Bloglovin seems to have fixed it's shit.


A warm shower after run / walking 13.1 miles and standing outside for over an hour while uber cancels on us and taxis lock their doors.


Basically having my own private yoga class with one teacher (instructor?) for two students. Thanks Alyssa!


Chinese after the above.


Nap after the above.


Pizza after the above.


Staying up till 3am talking. How old are we?


Reading 3 books this weekend. Being in airports and on planes means lots of free time and I breeze through books.


Airports. I love airports. I love people watching and watching the planes take off and land (I think it helps my mini anxiety because they look so smooth and not bumpy and scary at all) and just waiting. I also love rocking chairs.


Europe is less than 3 months away.


I don't fall asleep easily at all unless I am drunk or beyond tired. I was ridiculously tired on Sunday night and I fell asleep within 5 minutes. It's so nice to know what that feels like, even if it is only once a year.


Chips. Chips make me happy.


I would apologise for the buzzfeed-esque post and overuse of gifs, but... gifs make me happy.

Anything make you silly happy recently?

    Girl, don't apologize for the gifs! Gifs are so fun! Ugh I wish I could get two naps per day. Especially today, I'm exhausted. And yay for Bloglovin finally getting their act together! I was starting to get uber annoyed with them!

    Reading this made me smile so much! I wouldn't have wanted to wait for a ride in the cold or order excessive food to the hotel or stay up until 3am talking with anyone else :) I'm glad you were able to get in some good reading time at the airport. Hope your flight back wasn't too bad!

    That Step-Brothers gif made me especially happy.

    Monday nights are kinda my night to cook - I cook for my guy, my stepson, and my father-in-law. This week, I made something that all complimented me on, and that made me feel appreciated and happy. (Nothing fancy - baked chicken with a homemade bbq sauce, cauliflower casserole, corn, and carrots)

    I love your gifs. They are always hilarious. I have the opposite problem I fall asleep in like 5 seconds. It's good if you're ready to go to bed, but not so good if your trying to watch a movie with your husband lol. I just wake up so early and am so busy with the kids I just seem to pass out once I stop moving. lol Maybe working out more regularly would help. xo

    Love this post! Do you know what makes me happy? At my wedding I was drinking bud light out of a can and someone said "that's going to show in the pictures!" and I thought of your wedding pictures and was like, you know what? I remember this from Kristen's and she did not care at all and I don't need to care either!

    Happy hump day!

    Gifs make me happy too (as does most of the things on your list; especially chinese, naps, and pizza... hehehe although I cannot stay up until 3 anymore! If that happens, it's practically a miracle) I was in MTL with my friend last weekend and we legitimately went to bed at like 10pm on Saturday (in MTL, with no boys). Party animals over here.... I'm actually quite embarrassed.
