Did You Know These January 31st Facts

I believe that it is the darkest month of the year, the time change occurs the month before and a couple of months after January.

January has always been my birthday month

I don't know what to add. I learned a lot from these facts. Nice read

Interesting tidbits. I didn't know this was the date that the Beatles performed live for the last time and on a roof ta boot.

I sometimes think Christmas puts a lot of strain on families. January is gone for us so I'm too late.

All interesting facts about today. The only one I knew was about couples divorcing more on this day than any other during the year.

Hey, the kids happen to be making hot chocolate right now - I told them and they said !

I only knew two of those facts. Though the seperation/devorice thing wasn't a real shocker. New year, new start. The sentment of the holidays are gone. The perfect time. I am happy that we're still going strong. National hot chocolate day.... and me without hot chocolate. Ah well, to hot to enjoy it, anyway.

I can see why January is cold and no snuggles here get away from me I am cold you silly jerk. They need to go Moscow and pick up a hot chocolate because its cold and we divorcing if I do not get warm soon. I do have a January addition go away you stupid month you even make California cold. Sorry. I had to make bad jokes.

I think no one sticks to their New Year's resolution in January

I knew about number 3, in fact December comes from Latin Decem, that means 10 and it was the last month. Another January fact? King Numa Pompilius, the second king of Rome, is the one who added both January and February to the Roman calendar.

Was there a January this year???????????

I heard it national bubble wrap day

Your comment on the couples made me think they wanted to quickly change frhie love lives in time for Valentine''s

@caroldm The world received me for the first time in January 1958.

January 25th is the day of St Dwynwen, the Welsh patron saint of lovers. Here is her story: Dwynwen was the prettiest of King Brychan Brycheiniog's 24 daughters. She fell in love with a local lad called Maelon Dafodrill, but King Brychan had already arranged for her to marry another prince. Maelon took the news badly, so the distraught Dwynwen fled to the woods to weep, and begged God to help her. She was visited by an angel who gave her a sweet potion to help her forget Maelon, which happened to turn him into a block of ice. God then granted Dwynwen three wishes. Her first wish was that Maelon be thawed; her second wish was for God to help all true lovers; her third wish was that she would never marry. In gratitude, Dwynwen became a nun and set up a convent on Llanddwyn Island, a beautiful little spot on Anglesey. She prayed for true lovers to have better luck than she did. Her name means, 'she who leads a blessed life'.

I wonder if people divorce more in January because you are cooped up together during the cold and bad weather? There are quite a few celebrities born on January 31.
