Sometimes all you need is...simplicity

So today has found me in a drab mood. Maybe it's the weather. Maybe that it is that I've been inside for 4 days straight...other than a quick run to the grocery store.  Maybe it's that I feel like I have so much to do and yet, I sit here at the computer. Daddy and Grady are asleep in the recliner, Blake is in the play room  hauling cattle with his other brother, Case.

(Pssst, Blake doesn't have another brother, that I know about anyway.)

I look at my walls, I look at my self, I look at the snow and we all have something in common.

We're white...and drab...

I need color. I need sunshine. I need a shot of "double-up on the pick me up."

Then, I go down and haul a load of cattle with Blake and Case?  (Why not add another child to our family. He won't sass back and he doesn't eat much!)

I got to be the one to run the chute and brand the cattle before Blake hauled them off to the pasture.

And you know what? That was all I needed as a constant reminder that it's the SIMPLE things in life that count. My life does not need to be drab. It's full of COLOR, it's full of SUNSHINE!

There, I feel lots better...I still want to add some color to the house though!

Maybe this Spring?

I hope that you all can find come COLOR in your life!
