Ground Hog surely will see his shadow.  Almost too warm today – Snow almost gone.  Finished “Young Mrs. Meigs” at one “sitting” (10:30 P.M.) Surely enjoyed it.  Skipped S.S. and church just to be lazy.   Saw Pauline and Rosamund yesterday.  Rosamund looks about the same and among other things she advises me too teach Spanish in College.  I think she knows I’m not really enjoying my work here as I should!
