Stupid winter

I'm all for snow and winter. But only for like a month! This winter has seemed eternal and longer than necessary. I escaped to Vegas and saw that there is hope spring will eventually get here. But I'm afraid it may still be months before I see any of my bulbs poking up through the ground. I'm anxious to be able to send the children outside to play. I love being able to banish them outside! I love my flowers and working in my garden. I blame the continuing long winter on that stupid groundhog! What does he know anyway?
