Celadon

Amazing how much a bit of sun and the easing of pain can do to my mood. The aches have subsided, and we are going to take a nice long walk, see a movie, and rest. The tikka sauce D used on the chicken made for a tasty meal. And all is right with the world this afternoon. Today, I learn the lesson again.

Celadon green mug, from the Oriental Market, mostly Chinese, groceries and kitchen utensils. A color I once detested, right along with the dull yellow so often seen in stylish ceramics. But over the past few years, I have come to appreciate greens, even the olives and light dull greens. I would no longer automatically shout "purple" as my favorite color. Even Cobalt blue for mugs, may be in contention for most pleasing these days.

White clothing, also, seems to look alright on me, picking up on the clear hair color. Not the case when I had to wear it for nursing school clinicals all those years ago, and it made me look washed out and more pallid than usual. As though some new phase of my life is happening, and like an aluminum christmas tree light wheel, the hue changes. Looking with new eyes, everything a little strange, not quite sure how to walk.
