Luee

Luee
We adopted Luee from the Humane Society in 1996. He was 2 years old, but still a pup. He has slowed down a bit; his age is catching up to him. He is the best dog anyone could ever have. Luee had to be put to sleep on April 15, 2009. Rest in Peace Pup.

GOOD SAINT NICK



Good Morning Guys and Dolls:

Well another Tuesday is upon us and I’m hoping your day has started on the right foot, so grab a cup of coffee and read my babble. Let’s see what holidays we can raise our mugs to today.

PAWNBROKER’S DAY and ST. NICHOLAS DAY – A strange combination of holidays, Joey Z has placed before you. There is a correlation between the two holidays, as you know St. Nicholas was a Christian Bishop whom Santa Claus in based. St. Nicholas is the Patron Saint of school children, bankers and traditionally, pawnbrokers. Through his great acts of kindness and generosity, St. Nicholas became the patron saint of seafarers, young women, falsely accused people, endangered travelers, farmers, merchants and pawnbrokers. The pawnbrokers and bankers in northern Italy, who looked to St. Nicholas as their patron, would hang three golden balls above the doors of their shops in tribute. St. Nicholas’ relics are enshrined in the Basilica of S. Nicola, Bari., Italy.

PUT YOUR OWN SHOES ON DAY – Now Speakies this is the day to start teaching those little ones how to tie their sneakers. I know it’s not an easy task but all us parents went through it even Roe helped teaching our granddaughter how to tie her shoes. Just show patience as they will learn quicker and don’t forget that little hug and kiss.

Have a great day Guys and Dolls, be careful out there with all those shopping crowds and remember only 19 days till Christmas.
