Hey!

Because I'm nowhere near ready and choose not to think about how many days left until Christmas, I've decided to count how many days left until Ground Hog's Day.

It's close my friends, and even though I know those creatures never give us a break on that day, February 2nd still remains a harbinger of spring. I'm looking forward and according to my calculations, we only have to wait a mere 47 days to celebrate the end of this bitter cold. This day won't come soon enough.

Today I had to go down the icy back steps to drag the big Leo McSissybritches up to the porch. He was too much a fraidy pants to climb them himself. I simply can't wait for spring.

Well, off to clear a path near the front door. Right now it's clogged like a cardiothoracic surgeon's dream arteries. There are boots, hats, mittens, scarves and gloves muckin' up the not so spacious entry.

You know, 47 days doesn't sound very long at all. I can make it. I can make it. I can!

I would gladley send you some of our crazy weather here in east Texas or better yet let me send you some of the summer heat. It would warm you for a long time.

I feel that way about our summers. They are just too hot and humid for any living creature. My count down will be summer. Argh!

Leo is too funny and this post was cute.

Excellent decision. Tell Macy's. It can become the new shopping event of the year!
PS. My CollegeGrrrrl has a wild and crazy cat I call Princess Priscilla FancyPants. I think she might give Leo a run for his money.
