February 21-22

Again sorry about the no posting yesterday... My bad. But the last 2 days have been really crappy. I've been sick because of lady time (sorry tmi I know) and I've been feeling crappy. More upbeat post later today. I bought a pair of earrings today that broke before I even put them in. My skinny jeans were too tight from bloating, ... It was a crap day after that.

Oh but yesterday February 22 was my best friend Julia's 22nd birthday so I suppose it was somewhat good. I got to FaceTime her so :) I guess that was one good thing. I didn't have to get all dolled up to go anywhere (thank god) I was in no mood. So my aunt and I got back in our pjs and watched "Argo" which was incredible might I add. Anyways time for bed night lovelies!

Peace and love,
Regina

February 19-20

So sorry I forgot to post yesterday. I was trying but failing at not being lazy. Like I said before in my about me... I can be lazy and forgetful thank goodness for my wonderful boyfriend who reminded me.

It was really funny though, right before Tere and I went to bed Tuesday morning we looked at the recordings and I saw my favorite show about stuffed animals and music "wild record collection" was recorded... Now most of you won't know what that is because it's only in NYC. But it means alot to me to see its still getting recorded because its a show my uncle and I would cuddle up with popcorn and watch and jam out to. It is just a little memory of my childhood that means alot and to see that it's still recorded I was in awe. Tere and I stayed up talking all night and I woke up at like 9ish.

So yesterday was a beautiful day here in the city 50* barely windy and sunny :) of course it being 9:00 am and I didn't sleep well... Yeah I didn't take advantage of it but still when I saw it I smiled and promptly went back to bed and when I woke up it was raining so I was kinda kicking myself in the butt for that.

As well as the beautiful sunshine and weather yesterday morning I also woke up to some beautiful pictures of the duchess of Cambridge now those who know me know I am in love with her and wills :) I think they are perfect and to finally see her with a baby bump PERFECTION!!! She chose the right dress and everything to complement her baby bump and while it was tiny... It was definitely noticeable. She is such a beautiful woman.

I got a call from my mother (waking me up again) saying that she found my cough drops!!! Same packaging and everything!!!! :))! Sorry I can't elaborate on this but yeah :)

So today February 20, was an okay day. It was pretty crappy with what has happened but oh well still found things to make me smile :)

I nice cup of hot cocoa bag of cookies, script to read and a nice comfy chair :) makes for a pretty good and simple day. Also the demon child upstairs hasn't been home in a few days so I've been sleeping in and not waking up! :)

But not only was today a simple day but it's kind of bittersweet... I'm goin to be home to Ohio within the next week and I don't know how to feel about it but I do miss my family. My boyfriend Joel said it best "your mom is in a house full of testosterone... How do you think she feels?" Made me laugh really hard :)

I'm really sorry again for the late post. Please please please don't hate me :)

Peace and love,
Regina

Monday February 18,2013 (updated)

So today it was all about the simple things that made me smile. After the night and early morning I had I found it difficult to smile.

I was having a very difficult night, my boyfriend and I were fighting as well as my mom and I. I felt I was being bullied by his new "friends" so finally I did something I never do out of respect for all of our friendships. I called my best friend Shannon about my relationship because I was so upset because these people were doing nothing but putting me down and putting our relationship down. So I called her and she knew nothing! It turns out he was avoiding telling her for the same reason I was. I told her everything and as much as I was crying... I couldn't help but smile because she knows him and me and us as a couple. She knows how much hell we have been through and she sees how much we love each other and how badly we want to be with each other. She reassured me that everything is okay and it will be and for that I am eternally grateful. :)

This morning as I was going to bed "can you feel the love tonight" by Elton John came on the radio (my all time favorite song). Then right after my favorite boy band was on and I quizzed my aunt and about the band and it took her a couple times to get it but she eventually did and I was like YESSS!!!!

Know that feeling in the morning when you get up and see that it's sunny outside and windy, and then you see the windchill is 12* and you say "NOT TODAY WORLD!" And you get snuggled back up with your warm blanket and a good book. Listen to the wind howling where it sounds like a wolf.

Most of you well know my mom had surgery on valentines day to have a lump removed from her back. Well today she found out that the lump was harmless! This is great news to me because I was so scared about there being something wrong and it's my fault that she had the surgery to begin with (me freaking out) so waking up to a text saying it was harmless made me smile so big :) I'm just so glad that my mom is okay to wake up to a text like that just made me so happy.

One of my best friends had her heart ripped out in October by a guy that she was dating for nearly 5 years. She was heartbroken and I think one of the only good things to come out of it is that we have gotten closer again :) which means a lot. She is moving on with a new guy that knows how to treat a woman, and knows how special and beautiful she is and I don't think he will ever forget it. It makes me so happy to see her happy after everything she has been through in her life she deserves a guy who loves her for who she is and who she will be.

I love my best friend Lucy.She knows exactly what to say and when to say it to make me smile. She truly is my voice of reason in an unreasonable world. I've known her for nearly 17 years and I'm so lucky. So having a best friend like her always makes me smile.

Speaking of best friends my Jessica and I were on the phone for an hour last night talking about our favorite television show Once Upon A Time. But time flew by so fast that we didn't realize it was an hour! :)


This morning I was talking to my friend Ray and he suggested we all move to Canada! So from that point on we started talking in a candian accent and ending every sentence with "Ey" and really talking in an accent like update was oopdate and then I started talking in a Middle Ages accent so we combined the 2 and made middle Canadian!

Seeing my aunt and uncle still so in love with each other after everything they have gone through together as a couple the past 17 years. :) it's extremely adorable and makes me want to have a love like theirs :)

So those are just a few things that made me smile today I promise I will get better at writing this blog because I think I'm rambling. So that's all for today. :)

A little about me. :)

So those of you who know me well know that I am a very happy person, I love life and the people in it and I give everyone the benefit of the doubt. Now in no way am I saying I am happy all the time. I definitely have days where I am mad at everything that breathes, but I get over it most of the time.

There are going to be days in this blog where I can't post every day for example when I have a wedding to attend or when I am on vacation (you will be warned about it). But I will update as soon as I can in those cases. :)

I have been through a lot in my life an through it all I've learned to smile. I notice the little things of life everyday because I believe it's the little things that make you smile. I believe smiling is contagious and the goal of this blog is to make you smile every day. I want to keep this up for a full year and if it is a success I will continue it for as long as possible.

I also really like to ramble so please don't mind if I do. I will be posting what makes me happy and feel free to comment on stuff that makes you happy as well. I would love to hear reader comments and maybe the same things will make us happy and we can be friends! :D Most of this blog is going to be from my phone which means that I won't have a lot of pictures. Sucks but oh well. I won't be posting just the little things I will also be posting the big things in life.

Now a little bit about me :) I am a very friendly person (some might say too friendly). I am a very open person and I make friends easily. I am strong because I know my weaknesses. I am a very loving and forgiving person. I have been in a very loving and amazing relationship for almost 4 years with the most amazing guy he's not perfect but neither am I.

I am thinking about putting this on tumblr possibly creating a new twitter account just for this purpose or maybe I will keep my current account.. But I will be on Instagram. Please message me if you want any information about following me.
