Depression in Color

Depression - that's a stupid post to put in a blog titled "The Happy Wife." HAHA!! Oh well, it's my state of mind today. I have read - yet another - marriage improvement book. I don't know why I keep doing it. They all tell me the same thing. I think I'm doing them, yet .... something's missing. Maye it's just that it's September. I usually deal with depression late in October. Maybe it's early this year. It was three months late one year.

A lot of people say that when they are depressed, colors seem to fade, tastes aren't as interesting. I don't find that to be true. When I'm depressed, everything tastes better. Hence, the empty kitchen when I get over it. I was thinking about the color fading thing when I wrote the title. Bearsie's dreaming in color made me think that maybe colors do fade when I am depressed - I just don't notice it. Ah well.

The thought has crossed my mind to get rid of the kids for the night and see if that helps my mood. hmmmm! Maybe I could call my friend, do a little shopping, light some candles. . . I'll keep you posted.
