There were so many little things to do first thing Wednesday morning. Felt like I was all over the house from one chore to the next. I didn’t even start cleaning until almost 1pm! But before I move past yesterday,…

I thought it might be fun to celebrate Groundhog day by finding some unusual facts about the day. The first official Groundhog Day was celebrated in 1887 (some say 1886) at Gobbler’s Knob, 2 miles outside of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. The…
