Well, it seems that Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow this morning. Doesn't he always? So, we need to hunker down for six more weeks and bear up under Indiana's winter coat. The countdown calendar below states 46 days until spring; beckoning us like a light at the end of the tunnel.
46 days: that computes to 1104 hours. If we sleep 8 hours per night, that whittles the hours that we're conscious of winter down to 736 hours. If we divide that number by 24, that puts us right at 30 days of wakefulness before embracing the rites of Spring. So see? Not so bad after all.
Of course, winter has its advantages. Like Clyde Moore says, "There's one good thing about snow, it makes your lawn look as nice as your neighbor's."
So, grab a hot cup of something, prop up your feet, and enjoy the rest of the winter ride. Warmer days will be here before you know it.
I like the way Clyde Moore thinks!!! Don't think Phil would have seen his shadow if he had been here...more snow!
