Life’s Simple Pleasures Prove It Doesn’t Take Much To Make Us Happy

Ever noticed how little things can just set you off?  Especially on a Monday.  Ten minutes after the alarm clock goes off and you finally remember that you're out of coffee. It's enough to make you want to hurt someone!   But, if you're really paying attention, there are also a number of little things that can actually make your day! 

Here are a few that we've discovered.

• Having just enough milk left in the carton for your bowl of cereal
• Someone pulls out of a parking spot right up front at the grocery store giving you the perfect spot.
• Hitting nothing but green lights on your way to work
• Fresh, clean sheets, right out of the dryer, on a cold winter night
• Finding a $10 bill in a coat you haven't worn in a while
• Seeing the price of gas dropped by ten cents overnight
• Getting on I-20 one entrance past a huge traffic jam
• Opening the mailbox and finding no bills
• Pushing the button on your favorite chips in the vending machine and magically two of the bags fall out
• Turning on the TV to be suprised and see that your favorite movie is just about to start
• Finding one last piece of chocolate pie in the refrigerator
• Getting an email early in the morning telling you that the dreaded HR conference call has been called off
• When your child passes a test you just knew they'd fail
• Discovering that rattling sound you kept hearing in your car was actually an earring you've been missing
• Waking up at 7am thinking you've totally overslept, only to remember that it's Sunday

Obviously we couldn't think of 'em but feel free to add your simple pleasure!
