Count your blessings - April 2022

1. Holiday time with the family
2. Making short trips and sleeping in a hotel and eating in restaurants
3. Breakfast buffets
4. Attending the Gouden K's in a crowded Sportpaleis.  (unlike some of my previous claims, it was fun to be in a big crowd after the pandemic again). 
5. Sunny days
6. Easter with the family, while casually sitting in the sun in the garden
7. Wine tasting among the vineyards
8. Discovering "Lupin" on Netflix and getting right hooked on it, after 3 months of not finding good matches in Netflix and ignoring the platform mostly.
9. Finishing a book in 1 weekend after being stuck in another one for weeks
10. Singing goosebumps songs along out loud without restriction while homeworking
11. Deciding last minute to be carpool mom to drive a bunch of boys to their scouting weekend, realizing the long itinerary passes at 5 min from a friend that you've not seen in a few years and spending an unplanned evening visit together
12. Waling in a sweater or even already once in a T-shirt
13. Jan's self-made peanut-sauce
14. Massages in the office at work.
15. More international collaboration with cool colleagues

This is a monthly list of simple things in my life that make me happy or that make me smile.  

As the world often seems full of negativity and disaster, I want to pay attention to these small things that make me happy in my daily life and be grateful for them. You can find all of them via this link
