How To Beat Those Winter Days

Today is January 27, and it is a frigid day in virtually every state in this country. And even in Hawaii, earlier this month, it was reported that ten inches of snow fell on several volcano peaks!

Anyhow, temperatures ranged from -11* in Fairbanks, to 14* in Bangor, to 17* in NYC and 35* in   Orlando. DAMN, that is COLD!

But, here is some good news, My Friends. It WILL get warm again. You can count on it.

In six days, we will reach the halfway mark between Winter and Spring on February 2. Then, on March 8, 40 days from today, we will see 7:30 sunsets again with the return of Daylight Savings Time. 

In just thirteen days after we change our clocks, the first date of Spring arrives. Then, on April 1 it's Passover; and finally, on April 5, a mere sixty-eight days from today, tulips and daffodils will be noticeable as we celebrate Easter.

Just the thought has to warm your heart. Doesn't it? Helps to rid the fog of the winter doldrums from your mind and think clear thoughts again.

So, don't fret over some wind chills and a little bit of white powder. It will warm up and it will all melt away, leaving you with the memory that you overcame another of nature's attempts to discourage you.

And remember, nothing, not even cold weather, lasts forever. Enjoy your hot cocoa!
