XI things I have learned during the lockdown

Image
Hello there, We have been officially out of the quarantine for a couple of weeks. And I promise this is my last post regarding this!!! It's time to move on and slowly forget about everything, with the hope that this situation will NEVER repeat again. It was quite difficult to resist! But we've managed to do it! It is not easy to entertain a toddler 24/24 without being able to go anywhere. But as someone told me, we were lucky we did not have to go through home-schooling and homework. So, here are some things I have understood while in lockdown: 1. We need to buy some board games because  we had a lot of free time with no ideas of what  to do; 2 . Playing ball is FUN Believe it or not, I have never played ball with my husband before. There is always a first time; 3. Taking the rubbish out is GREAT The only reason I have been out of our yard for a couple of weeks was taking the trash out. It was not one of my favorite things to do before; 4. One coffee a day

Did you know that? Languages.

Hey guys, I have something interesting for you today. One of my goals for 2020 was to learn something new every day 📚. It is pretty challenging, as I don't always have time or inspiration to do researches. But I still manage to do it. I discover new recipes, books, exercises. All of this is also supported by the quarantine (which is about to end  🎉 ). So I had a brilliant idea these days (it might seem brilliant just for me 😆). I will do a "Did you know that" post from time to time. This way I will share with you the things I have learned during my research. Maybe you would want to find out some interesting facts as well. As they say, " sharing is caring ". Let me know if you like the idea. My first post is about Languages. All of us know how important speaking a foreign language is. And we are extremely happy that we can travel abroad without problems because we speak different languages.  But do you know how many languages are spoken in the world? Or

5 Movies based on true stories

Dear friends, How are you doing? I hope you and your families are fine. We are living a difficult period. We are not used to these kind of emergencies, but sooner or later it will pass ( I hope sooner). So, today I will write about movies. How many of you like to watch a good movie in the weekend? Or maybe you prefer watching one before going to bed? Well, I have a complicated relationship with movies.  Don't get this wrong, I love them!  However, I seldom watch a movie because the only time when I could actually watch something in silence is after 10 pm.  So  I am either busy reading or I just fall asleep and don't need anything 😁. But if I decide to watch a movie, then I will most likely choose one based on a true story. (When I was younger I could see"chick flicks" the entire day 😊).  I just don't have time and patience for bad  movies anymore.  🎬 Here is a  list of some films which are based on a real story. I hope you like them as much as I did. Pl

Fericirea vine din lucruri simple

Dragi prieteni, E carantina! E criza! E greu! Ar fi trebuit sa fiu trista. Sa sufar poate, sa ma enervez, sa vreau sa evadez! Sa incalc legea! De 7 saptamini nu am fost nicaieri!!! Cu ceva timp in urma nu mi-as fi imaginat ca vom trece prin asa ceva! Dar... Eu sunt fericita!Sunt fericita pentru ca am invatat sa apreciez ceea ce am la moment si sa nu caut ceea ce nu pot avea sau nu e esential. Sunt fericita pentru ca sunt alaturi de ...ei, baietii/barbatii mei. Nu am avut ocazia sa stam impreuna 24/24 atit de mult timp.  Am inteles ca problemele te fac mai puternic, mai motivat. Ma bucur ca indiferent de situatia grea,  toti ai mei sunt bine, ca prietenii au vesti bune. Ma bucur ca e primavara si e frumos afara. Nu las ploile frecvente sa ma afecteze negativ. Fie ele chiar reci si abundente, sunt trimise de sus. Inseamna ca trebuie sa le acceptam!!! Sint fericita ca, in sfirsit citesc, fac sport si gatesc ce vreau! Am invatat retete noi, care inainte  mi se pareau foarte grele! Am
