Curing the Blues
Wednesday, January 27, 2010
Here's what you do when you're feeling blue:
1) You buy the flowers for which you've been yearning (I could write a story with the tips of these irises, couldn't you?).
2) You dance salsa, samba, rumba, fox trot, jive, and waltz with the masterful Jean Paulovich (throwing "Pulp Fiction" moves at one another when something goes wrong and not complaining, not for one second, when he tosses you to the floor. "New move," he says. "Yeah, right," you answer.).
3) You pay attention to the friends you have—the love they yield, unasked for.

What a great list! It sounds like I need to take dancing lessons.
great ideas - will go buy some flowers tomorrow :)
I have two beautiful vases in my apartment, and I have been wanting to fill them with something pretty for awhile. You've given me the push to do so. :)
I'm sorry you've been blue. The flowers are lovely and I hope the dancing blew away the blues.
beautiful flowers - i hope they brightened your day.
I was so disappointed when my dance studio cut out their classes for adults. Well, adults can still take ballet but the classes are geared to the studio's quarterly performances now.
I am in love with those blue-tipped stems.
It's true that paying attention to others when we're feeling down seems to help. It may be the thing we least feel like doing, but it's always worth the effort.
You are the best cook! I love your recipes. Thank you, B.
Nice list. I'm not a dancer, though. What about music? Maybe some writing? :)
