Today, 2 February 2023, is officially Groundhog Day. The day Punxsutawney Phil famously comes out of hiding to let Americans know if there's more winter ahead or an early spring. But in what ways is your life like the namesake Bill Murray film?




In the film Groundhog Day, Bill Murray's character keeps waking up on the same day. Hearing the same song on the radio, seeing the same people in the street and encountering the same situations throughout the day. 

Sometimes it can feel like our lives are stuck on Groundhog Day too! I know my days always start the same:
  • Toddler wakes me up, carry him downstairs for nappy changing and breakfast
  • Put the radio on
  • Make a cuppa tea
  • Clean up weetabix toddler has flung around kitchen 
  • Put on Fireman Sam
You get the gist?

Over to you

In what ways does your life resemble Groundhog Day? Do you see the same people at the same time? Can you set your watch by it?

    Today like every Thursday i woke up about 7:12 played on my phone then had a cuppa then at 8:30 when my PA she did me porridge for breakfast and I had a cuppa tea. I got in the shower on my own and then I got dressed. The taxi came then it was time to clock on at 10. I came home at 1 had my lunch then went to the roundabout with all the members and @Giovanni_Scope  and now I'm here having my fruit/veg bowls and a Diet Coke whilst helping people and having fun in this online community. 

    Just a normal Thursday which happens to be Groundhog Day.

    Thanks for sharing your experience of Groundhog Day with us @durhamjaide2001. How do you feel about your usual Thursday routine? I agree with you though, I didn't do anything extra for Groundhog Day either  :)
