Mmm, it's Thursday evening Feierabend. You know that feeling when you come to the end of the week, and realize that you've tidily completed not only all your work but also a ton of to-do's, both big and small, and now it's still light outside and the aroma of neighbors' barbecues is floating on the lovely summer evening, through the open balcony door, and right into your neat, cozy home office? And your boyfriend is laughing on the phone outside while he waits for you at the table on your new balcony, a spot which has quickly become your communal wind-down point to share Hefeweizen, the sunset, and the day's stories? Gosh, can a person marinate in any more contentment??
I wonder if this is why I've noticed a tendency of late to reach for the color pink. Weird; I was never drawn to this color before. But I just now pulled my shiny, dark pink memory stick out of the computer and regarded it for a moment. Why had I chosen this one at the hardware store sale last week, and not the silver?
Well, because pink is just such a happy color.
And I sure am happy.
Love to all... :)

Ohhh! That makes me happy, too! :-) And to hear you say you feel relatively caught up -- that's huge! Peace of mind is an amazing thing -- I'm so glad you're experiencing it, especially while it's still light out.....
The Apostle Paul once wrote that "no matter what my state, I have learned to be content."
IF you've found some joy and peace today... then MY prayers were answered today.
Huge hugs & kisses!!!!!!!!!!
Ahhh,,, Beeer.
That's why I love the color green! Green means life, it means energy. It means that something is working against entropy, against laziness. Working to organize, to grow, to provide food.
Green means that there's water, and there's life...and where green is, other things can be! Green provides shade and shelter, and beauty in the form of seasons and flowers!
I love the color Green. :-)
And Kermit the frog said is wasn't easy being green.....
Were you around when we were talking about the finding that people buy more drab colors when the economy is down? At some point I started gravitating toward bright colors, after never liking them growing up, particularly red - it's so... full of life.
I know! I find I want to dress in bright colors when the weather is dreary. Maybe one day I'll actually buy that rainbow umbrella...
