Such a dedicated eagle, keeping those eggs warm! Was it a late winter? Is this a female or male eagle? Did the eagle break the snow pile loose? Did those eggs survive and eaglets hatch? So many questions! Thankful this was not how eagles in our area woke up this morning!  

This saying just spoke to me today. I think the author was thinking it as a motivational phrase for CHANGE. As a motivational phrase it could be applied to so many things. For example, our eating habits, spending habits, exercise habits. Perhaps, one or more "bad" habits needs to be modified or changed a bit. Okay, so this phrase speaks to me in several areas of needed change! I'll start with one and go from there.... I promise! It could also be motivation to KEEP DOING what you are doing! Maybe you have already made a major change. This phrase could be a reason to keep doing what you are doing! Hope your days has been a good one! Now back to my promise....  

This Friday, February 2nd, is Groundhog's Day! Are we going to have 6 more weeks of winter or will the next 6 weeks be more spring-like weather? The tradition is based in Pennsylvania and involves Punxsutawney Phil, a local groundhog. The following diary entry was posted on February 4th, 1841, of Berks County, Pennsylvania: "Last Tuesday, the 2nd, was Candlemas day, the day on which, according to the Germans, the groundhog peeps out of his winter quarters and if he sees his shadow he pops back for another six weeks nap, but if the day be cloudy he remains out, as the weather is to be moderate." So, Bob is wondering if he will be wearing his baseball cap or his winter hat the next 6 weeks. Place your vote in the comments: Thumbs Up = Phil did not see shadow-- 6 weeks milder weather Angry face = Phil saw shadow-- 6 weeks of winter weather  

A little Trivia Tuesday today. See if you can match the feature on the left with the year it was invented. Good luck! The answers will be posted tomorrow. Enjoy this snowy Tuesday

Back on November 30th I did a post about Elf on the Shelf and shared some ideas of how to incorporate this fun tradition at your home. The video clip below is how one family had the Elf on the Shelf visit their home. Their young son's reaction is so adorable! I'm guessing his pjs were starting to get a little small and the Elf on the Shelf had an idea! https://www.facebook.com/Tyla/posts/684703710420037
