So, it's groundhog day and I'm hearing that he has decided that we will have 6 more weeks of winter.
I'm not a fan. Evidently, I read the Chronicles of Narnia too much as a child.
I landed in Norman, Oklahoma last night. The trees were covered in ice - gorgeous. (blessing 211) The ground was covered in snow - pretty. (blessing 212) gorgeous and pretty, in a "Narnia Winter" sort of way. I was just waiting for my shuttle driver to turn into the White Witch's right hand man. It was a long shuttle ride.
Thankfully, I made it to my hotel without being whisked away to a castle whose yard is full of statues...Although there is one animal statue outside my hotel. I just looked the other way and walked quickly into the lobby.
Safe and sound.
No white witch.
No Turkish Delights.
I didn't turn into a statue.
Today, the sun came out for a bit and the white winter started melting away. And it was beautiful. (blessing 213)
It just wasn't soon enough for the groundhog...
