This is a story that will restore your faith in humanity. In this world that seems to be more and more divided stories like this always come around to give us hope and that feel good feeling.
It all came from positive thinking. Alanah and Renee a mother and daughter duo were trying to get home on a 7:00 PM flight from Orlando to Knoxville only to have their flight delayed, and then cancelled. The airline insisted there was no promises they would be able to get another flight.
Meanwhile, there were others on the flight who were having the exact same issue. 13 of them to be specific. Everyone had important things to do the next day. Interviews, meetings, speeches. They couldn’t afford to miss. Alanah and Renee bonded with the fellow stranded strangers so much that they all decided to put their money together and rent a passenger van to drive them all home. 650 miles, and a 10 hour drive later they were back in Knoxville in time for their appointments the next day.
Crazy! The power of positive thinking and determination. They posted a fun video of it all too which you can check out here.

There are two kinds of people who consume the majority of Gatorade. Athletes on sidelines and people who are extremely hungover. Where did this recovery drink get it’s name anyway?
Gatorade was invented at the University of Florida in 1965. So naturally they named it after the mascot of the school, the Gators.
The most interesting part… The University actually gets 20% of all the profits from sales of the beverage.

It’s that time of year when money is tight, you’re out doing your shopping, everyone is in a frenzy, making it easy to make a mistake or lose something. But when it’s an envelope of cash you are using to buy gifts it makes things even more stressful.
That’s what happened to a person in Nashville while they were at a Home Depot. Luckily the employees of the store found the envelope of $700 cash and did the right thing. They tracked down the owner on Facebook and were able to get the money back to them.
I’m sure Santa will be good to them for doing the right thing. Definitely on the nice list this year.

We just finished sending writing and sending out our Christmas cards in our house. Which involved lots of holiday postage stamps. These weren’t always available though.
Canada debuted the first Christmas postage stamp in 1898! Then it took forever for America to catch up. The first U.S. Christmas themed stamp was issued in 1962. The design was a candle and wreaths in green and red.
I feel like they should bring that back one year.
