February

Ah, February. The longest shortest month of the year. Ugh. I must say, I think this is my least favorite month. The newness of the snow has long worn off and there seems to be no end to the bitter cold. By this month, the kids are experiencing major cabin fever and they keep demanding to know when Spring will arrive. And then there is that damn groundhog who saw his shadow today. Argh! Doesn't he know that I need a small bit of hope that we will not have to live like caged anilmals much longer? Sheesh.
