My golden retriever self wants to share this researched finding!  Yep…get a dog and possibly live a longer and healthier life…so if your life fits this research go immediately to your local animal shelter and find yourself “your life-saver/furry friend”.  Pups of all shapes & sizes are waiting for you…oh what a great giver you would be…and my four-legged friends would bring joy…continued love and happiness in return.

Go save a life…get life…what a winning combo!  Golden paws up during this holiday season.

President Franklin D Roosevelt and Prime Minister Winston Churchill light the US National Christmas Tree in 1941

History Nuggets: FDR lights White House Christmas after declaring war

“President Franklin D. Roosevelt (standing) and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill (right) speak from the south portico of the White House while lighting the official tree on Christmas Eve, 1941.”  Imagine the heavy hearts and trepidation for the world at this time.

Although the war began with Nazi Germany’s attack on Poland in September 1939, the United States did not enter the war until after the Japanese bombed the American fleet in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, on December 7, 1941.  The United States declared war against Japan the next day, December 8, 1941.
