The beauty of being a blogger is that I have a platform to share whatever noteworthy topic that pops into my head. Sometimes, the crazy stories I come across on the inter-web or the random thoughts that pop into my mind aren’t really noteworthy at all {on their own}. They usually make me pause, laugh, or just plain roll my eyes and I go on about my day.
So, without further ado, here’s this weeks edition of Random Goodness from Around the Web:
The Cutest Squirrel You Ever Did See
Now I’m not sure what the HH would do if I happened upon an injured baby squirrel and wanted to take it to the vet but if it looks this adorable, I might be able to convince him! This little squirrel fell out of a tree in a windstorm and broke its leg. A sweet woman found the injured animal and took it in to get the tiniest cast on its leg. I know the poor thing is hurt, but how adorable is that?
A Liberian Scam That’ll Make You Smile
Raise your hand if you’ve ever received a message from a scammer telling you that you inherited a large sum of cash but in order to get it you must first wire the taxes or some other such nonsense. If I had a dollar for every email like that I’ve received, I’d be rich! But a guy in Utah decided to handle the situation a little bit differently. I’m not sure what I would have done in his situation (probably just deleted the email like normal) but it certainly wasn’t what he did, which was to engage the email author. What resulted was truly heartwarming!
The Braidy Bunch
After a young rider on her bus lost her mom to cancer, one bus driver stepped up to do the job most moms are tasked with: doing hair. It’s another heartwarming story that you might need a few tissues for!
And This Little Piggy Went Splat
I’m always so curious where the vision for a product begins. I mean who would just randomly be like, “You know, Carl, I think a melted little piggy face would we a great idea for a cooking steamer!” And then the decision makers above him agreed and so the Marna Pink Piggy Steamer was made and is now sold all over the internet. Weird.
And that concludes this installment of Random Goodness from Around the Web. Please make sure to leave your random responses in the comment section.

Quote of the Day “The moment will arrive when you are comfortable with who you are, and what you are– bald or old or fat or poor, successful or struggling- when you don’t feel the need to apologize for anything or to deny anything. To be comfortable in your own skin is the beginning of strength.” ~ Charles B. Handy
