We know dog’s are man’s best friend… but also, they’re baby’s best friend it seems.
A couple from here in Connecticut is thankful today for their dog who saved their 9-month-old daughter. Kelly Dowling told People magazine their incredible story of how their Boston Terrier, Henry, got their attention when he kept running in and out of the baby’s nursery and head butting the door. Really stranger behavior. But then when the couple went to check on the baby they discovered she was having trouble breathing
They rushed the daughter to Connecticut Children’s medical center and the doctor managed to clear her airway. Jeff, the husband and father, says that Henry will be rewarded with being allowed to sleep in their bed more and he has a steak in his future.
I think Henry should get whatever food he wants for at least a year.
You may have already eaten a few candy canes this year. It’s certainly the season for it. But why?
The National Confectioners Association (yes, a real thing) says it all started with a choirmaster in a church who originally gave the red and white peppermint sticks to young children to keep them quiet during the really long church services.
It wasn’t a holiday treat until a German-Swedish immigrant decorated his tree with candy canes back in 1847. That is when they became popular as a Christmas candy.
All this week I have tickets to CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY coming to theToyota Oakdale Theatre for five performances May 20-22, 2022. I loved this movie and these shows are supposed to be awesome.
Play every day at 4pm and try to win.
Here’s today’s question if you missed it…
Q: This is not safe to do, but nearly 70% of us have done it at least once during the holidays?
I wonder this every time I hear the song. When are we supposed to start the “12 days” in the “The 12 Days of Christmas”?
I always thought it was before or sometime in early December. Nope. It is actually about the 12 days AFTER Christmas, not before. The last day always ends on January 6th, which is a holiday called the Feast of the Epiphany.
Talk about a crazy world record. This woman in the U.K. just set a new one for the largest collection of Christmas ornaments. She started collecting them in 1999, and now has 1,760 different ornaments in her house! That seems somewhat recent for collecting ornaments right? I still have some from like 1987.
She hopes to break 2,000 ornament mark in the next year or two.
Here’s the video if you want to see what that many ornaments actually looks like:
What does everyone from the show want from Santa this year? Hopefully we were nice enough to get everything we want! 🤣#wishlist #christmas #presents #naughtyornice #gifts
