I know it will eventually get here, but it has been such a long, cold winter this year. A cheap skate, I turn on the heat on the 15th of November and it gets turned off on the 15th of March. This year with the incredibly monstrous oil heating bills, it may happen before then. If only the cold weather would go away. Don’t you agree it has seemed like a longer than normal colder winter?

The good news is I saw this on Sunday when I was outside starting the yard work. Hey, it’s spring and a body’s mind turns to thoughts of … digging in the dirt! Unless Mother Nature has some of those evil March blizzards up her sleeve, t-shirt weather will be coming soon. Hopefully, that will happen by the 15th of the month or the cat and dog will be keeping their winter coats a while longer and I’ll be wearing gloves and my parka.

I am not the only optimist; read what Lancaster Newspapers’ Cindy Stauffer says today.
