The Groundhog

I know I'm a few days late on this one, but better late than never, right?

I don't put a lot of faith in the weather predicting abilities of Punxatawney Phil. Sure, he's cute beyond belief and I just want to squeeze him whenever I see him, but a weather man he is not.

But in an effort to "look on the bright side" of this horribly cold, snowy, depressing winter, I decided on Tuesday - after hearing that Phil did NOT see his shadow! Yay! - to buy into the little critter for at least this one year.  After all, he said that there would be an early spring!!!

Then yesterday when I was driving into work I was blinded - literally could not see where I was driving at all - by the intensely bright shining sun.  Yes the temperatures were still pretty chilly, but it wasn't snowing or sleeting and the sun was out.  It seemed like Phil might be on to something.

Please don't let me down, little guy!
