Blue Day 25




I’ve already written about it as my favourite colour day 3 blogflash2012 so what else can blue be?
It can be Violet Beauregarde from Charlie and The Chocolate Factory after eating the gum.
  It can be used to describe cold; lips turning blue.
 It can also describe a feeling. Feeling blue, down in the dumps, miserable. I seldom feel blue but today I did.  I hated it.  So I took my sorry arse off to the gym for a good run to banish the blues for another colour. Blue maybe my favourite colour but it is definitely not my favourite feeling.

    Not my fave feeling either...love the little quote about changing your colour if you're feeling blue...must do that more often, it's all about attitude!

      I know but sometimes it can be hard to find that positive attitude. It's a cute quote and by an 8yr old! Very wise in its simplicity. xx

    I don't think I have ever described myself as feeling blue. It's just not a colour I associate with. Glad that you're not blue anymore :-)
