THIS WEEK'S WOW STORIES, RESOURCES, MEMES AND MORE!
|

Can Someone Please Create a Street Like this in Every Town?
|
Over the last 2 months we have all been entertained by what people all around the world are doing to find new (and sometimes unusual) ways to entertain themselves and others.
This story has certainly given us one of our biggest smiles yet. Thanks to Liz Koto and her family (and Monty Python, of course!), we have new socially distancing goals and can promise you that we will most definitely be doing this somewhere soon. Ready to smile too?

It turns out that all of this isolation and social distancing isn't just getting to us humans. This story absolutely warmed our hearts and, dog lover or not, you won't be able to stop smiling.

So this video completely had us speechless, and let's face it, that doesn't happen often, if ever. All of these years of eating cereal and getting completely frustrated each morning. And now this.
Thank you Becky. Thank you!

Perspective is
Everything
|
These same examples seem to show up over and over again every few months. And along with them come the debates, the arguments and the overall disbelief. Whether it was the
blue and gold dress
,
Laurel or Yanni
, or now this blue or pink shoe debate, people everywhere are finally starting to realize that we don't all see things the same way and...thank goodness.

This Family Certainly Found the Bright Side to Quarantine.
|
We have absolutely loved seeing all of the things that families are doing to bond during these times. One family that stands out is the Ernst Family from Sarasota, Florida. Erin, the family matriarch, has had a life-long love of art and owns
Art & Body,
and is a professional face painter, henna and belly artist. Clearly her creativity has no boundaries. Check out their #coloradaychallenge and

There has never been a time in history where everyone in the world was experiencing the same challenges, frustrations, sense of confusion and overall sense of being overwhelmed, until now. While you may think we are talking about Covid-19, we are actually talking about teaching virtual meetings to family and friends! One comic summed up what many of us are probably feeling.
Get your laugh here....

Turtle Time

30 years ago we all experienced these 4 come to life in the release of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie.
On May 23rd, we all get the chance to celebrate the milestone anniversary for this iconic movie. Join the original April O'Neil actress Judith Hoag, as she hosts a virtual reunion on Zoom and shares some stories and fun facts about the cast, the film and so much more.

"With well over 2 million members, many posting photos from their homes with info about themselves or their situations, it has truly been inspiring to feel connected to people all over the world. It has been AMAZING to recognize that we are all dealing with this no matter where we are."
We joined this group and it is our new guilty pleasure. Thank you Roz for the recommendation!

Finally! A concept that doesn’t look completely terrifying.
