I have always loved Groundhog Day. The only reason I can think of is because it means Spring is just around the corner. 6 more weeks of winter or not....I can handle it.
This morning Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow in Punxsutawney, Pa. predicting winter will last for 6 more weeks. For the last 122 years, Phil has seen his shadow 97 times, and hasn't seen it 15 times. (That is one really old groundhog.) But seriously, Phil lives in Pennsylvania, and it's Feb 2...of course they are going to get 6 more weeks of winter.
But what does that mean for Austin TX....really?!?! From what I've noticed, it doesn't really mean 6 more weeks of winter for us...maybe half that. It seems that when March gets here (just 1 month away), we start getting our Springtime. And I am so ready!
Side Note: I met my husband on Groundhog Day 2006. Another reason for me to appreciate this day every year.

When I got back from lunch, flowers had been delivered for me and were waiting on my desk. The note from my hubby said "Best Hire I Ever Made"
