Not leaving home leaves plenty of time to spend with your pets.

Were sure youre up to date with all the bad news thats been circulating. Stocks are down. Schools are closed. People are under orders to stay home, etc. With all the depressing news of the last month or two, were almost certain youve been missing out on some of the good things that have happened around the world. That being said, the editorial board presents you with 10 positive things to briefly distract you from all the negative headlines.
