This is such a great idea that you could even implement in your own house.
A high school in Texas has opened up a campus grocery store and students pay in good deeds. It’s all based on a point system where they kids can do things like help clean up around the school, good behavior tasks and other forms of positive reinforcement. Even various chores around the building can get them points to buy groceries in the “Good Deed Grocery Store”
Not only are the kids learning about helping out and doing their part, but everything from math skills to supply management and work ethic. Which will go a long way to helping them with their first jobs.

Tis the season for singing Rudolph and putting out carrots for the reindeer on Christmas eve. Everyone knows Rudy’s nose was red, but did you know reindeer’s eyes change color?!
During the summer months their eye color is golden, then once winter sets in they start to change to a darker shade of blue which increases the scatter of reflected light behind their retina to help with night vision.
Part of the magic of being a reindeer I guess. Very cool.

There are many heroes who deserve to be recognized for all they’ve done through this global pandemic we’re in.
One of the more generous ways someone has showed their appreciation lately is the auto manufacturer, Mazda. Who just gave new cars to a bunch of people who went above and beyond this year. One of them is a fifth-grade teacher in Mississippi named Triana Davis. Trina hand-delivered homework to students from her class who didn’t have computers. Just an amazing act of generosity. So great to see things like this happening.
Here’s her emotional reaction when she was told about the car:

A lot of people have been decorating their house early this year to get in the holiday spirit. One thing that we’ve all experienced at one point or another is the Clark Griswold tangling of the lights. So annoying! And why does it always happen?
Well, first of all, the cord that the lights are attached to get tangled very easily based on it’s design. The other reason is that Christmas lights have a metal wire inside the chord to help with the packaging of the lights. This is one of the biggest culprits for tangling because it gives the chord a natural curve. Then you have the actual light bulbs which always get in the way and make the chord knot.
There are some ways you can help prevent tangling in the future though. One tip would be to coil the lights very carefully when putting them away, ideally using something like twist-ties to keep them in place. Martha Stewart has even talked about a similar idea using pieces of cardboard instead of twist-ties.
Happy decorating! “Have to check every bulb”
