Benadryl Game

Borrowed from here.

Most people know about Benadryl as a great way to save their friends who are allergic to something from dying. It is great to have around in case hives unexpectedly break out all over your body, if allergies are really bad, or in my case, need sleep.

Yes, this is a wonderful drug that has helped my friend avoid an emergency room visit because she accidentally drank out of the straw her husband used and he had eaten some fish and she's highly allergic. 

It's been used to help one of our puppies who got stung in the face by 2-3 wasps reduce the swelling and bring everything back down to size. 

For me, this little wonder drug means one thing for me. Pure, beautiful, glorious, guaranteed, sleep.

So, how does this game work? Sit tight and I shall tell you. 

Step 1. Make sure you have about 8 hours to devote to sleep.

Step 2. Take one pill with a full glass of water.

Step 3. Brush your teeth. (No one likes morning breath and it is worse if you forget)

Step 4. See how long you can do anything until that beautiful wave of peace, happy, and sleep calls you to bed.

Step 5. You win! Sleep happens!

Now, I know, other people play this with Night Quill and other run things like that, but for me, Benadryl works best. 

And yes, I also know that some people put twists on to step 4 like playing a video game, having "self love" time, or some other random thing, but for me, it is just purely a waiting game.

Alright, well, I already did step 1-4 and 5 is calling. So you have a fantastic day!

Does anyone else play this game? Or is just me? Let me know with a comment below!

100 Days of Happiness Days 41-50

At the start of this year one of my good friends post this challenge on her Facebook page. She was also kind enough to specifically dare me and a few of her other friends to do this 100 happy days.

I thought about it, thought about it, and thought about it, and after about a week, I was like I can do this. However, I really don't like posting things on Facebook that much. Sure, I like to tell people about new blog posts but for the most part I mostly post about 2-3 times a week. 100 days in a row is just too much.

So I've turned it into a post series.

Why? Why not? I'm a blogger right?

Here are the simple rules straight form the site http://www.100happydays.com/ "How? Plain simple! every day submit a picture of what made you happy! It can be anything from a meet-up with a friend to a very tasty cake in the nearby coffee place, from a feeling of being at home after a hard day to a favor you did to a stranger."

Winning!

Ha, well, not really. I won because I was the only female at the race. A bike race if you cannot tell by the kick ass shorts.

Tattoos!

This is one of mine that I really enjoy. The benefit of being so pale is the colors really pop!

Each Howl-o-scream we get together to hang out, drink, ride some rides and just have fun. It is always awesome.

Chicago Pizza in Chicago

This was the heaviest pizza I have ever eaten in my life. I would do it again, but add a salad to the mix or something.

My travel buddy.

Cupcakes

Sometimes you just need to pig out and knock that craving on it's butt, while you make your's a tiny big bigger. =)

This keeps my life together. It helps a planner like me attempt to not double book. It is colorful and stays constant and I love that fact. Cheers to the Google Calendar

Snow Cream
Trying new foods.It was snowy and cold and we made this dish. New Dude liked it, but I probably wouldn't make it again. It was kind of weird.I think I would prefer to put snow cone syrup on it instead.

This movie picture was borrowed from here

This movie is just cute! I liked the characters and story. It has a great look and feel and it made me laugh out loud! It is just cute.

Brother and Me

This guy, even though he normally doesn't have a beard. He has the best stories, life adventures, and is just my favorite character ever! I am happy he's around!

This picture was borrowed from here

This is just one of my most favorite ones. It gives me some crazy dreams when I eat it at night. However, it makes my tummy very happy. And, if you're ever having a really hard time keeping food down, try eating this with no milk, and sometimes it helps Random, but true.

I was able to run with my favorite running buddy. It was a great day and we took about 3 minutes off our time from last year! How awesome is that?!?

This Shit

This shirt was made for the Zombie Run. It was a fun race, even though I kind of died. But it was a super fun run, AND now I can wear this shirt and spread my happiness or survival techniques, however you look at it.

Surprise Flowers

I was having a bad day and New Dude stopped by walked in and gave them to me. It brought a smile to my face. He even made me a card. He is so great at things like that.

Straight Hair

I don't do it often. Mostly because I do not have any equipment to make it happen. However, when I went and got my hair cut, I was like hey, you have flat irons can you make this straight? They said yes, and I enjoyed running my hand through my hair for the rest of the day! It was awesome!
