Bright & Happy


A couple of things I shall label

Bright

&

Happy.



BRIGHT.

The glimpse of spring on the neighboring farm,
just outside my open kitchen window,
as the gingham curtain blows
against the old chair
bringing the cool spring breezes...




HAPPY.

I look around and realize how happy the color red makes me...
especially in this little corner of my kitchen.



Do you have a bright or happy corner somewhere in your home
that just makes you want to sing?





YOU are bright and make me happy, too!

I can't begin to tell you how much it means to me that you are a reader of this blog.
And...how much your comments mean and how nice it is of you to take the time to leave them!

(I try to respond if your email is enabled...if not please know that I am so glad you stopped in.)

I appreciate all of you!

Blessings to you...have a great week.

Like your happy place and think red is a wonderfully warm and happy color to accent one's home in.

Thinking about using red in my newly decorated kitchen when we get that far. Have to take pictures when it's a reality...let it be soooon.

God Bless you,

What a cheery post!

I loved your Lynchburg post! We live about an hour from that area. Glad you enjoyed your drive through our state!

I was born and raised in west Tennessee and now live in a small rural town 25 minutes north of Nashville.

I enjoy your blogs because it's so fun and different, which is good. I love country cuz I was born and raised in Oregon country. I try to find bright spots in my house, right now not much in my kitchen. Bright spots are where my colorful photography hangs and where my granddaughter's and my childrens' photos are. They light up my life as well.Thanks for your fun and uplifting posts and keep them coming!
