What color(s) make you feel better when you're feeling bad?

I really love reds and purples when I'm not feeling the best.

Green makes me feel worse when I'm sick.

Blue feels sterile like a hospital.

Yellow is ok, but it's annoying when it's trying to be all cheery and I don't feel well.

How about you?

2. I don't know about when i feel bad

but one color i always like is "dusty rose"... my fiance laughs at me because i always pick it out for clothes, sheets, paint, etc... i don't know why, it just seems warm and comforting to me.

5. I went through that color phase for a while.

I think I passed it on to my friend. Everything she has is that color now.

:hi:

7. That would be pretty!

When I was in 7th grade I wanted this pink and grey bicycle soooo bad. I didn't get it, but I will always love it.

Columbus is not so bad lately. If they would just take down those cement carriers by the hospital things would be awesome!! :hi:

8. LOL... that's how i ended up with a guinea pig

a leftover unfulfilled desire from childhood... now i get squeaked at every morning ;-)

No kidding about the hospital!!! It's the construction project that will never end... especially crazy because it seemed like the Jennings renovation (on the NW corner of 12th and Neil) went so fast! I'm already back to teaching in that building, it's really nice.

Who is your husband working with in Ent? I've gotten to know Roman Lanno recently -- he seems like a really interesting guy.

10. I had a guinea pig!

I loved that little guy. He would squeal like an alarm if you even went near the refrigerator. He just knew there was some lettuce or carrot in there for him. :rofl:

Check your PM for Ent info. :)

4. That dusty rose is really nice.

When mood (the body) begins to rise, I use the mindful breathing techniques to calm everything and to do inward.

11. Red and black were my high school colors.

They hold a special place in my heart. We were the Coyotes, though. Pronounced Kai-oats. :P

12. Blue-Green

like the sea. It was my favorite crayon as a child. I like wearing Hunter Green clothes, but can't find them really.

Fun spot:

13. I used that crayon a lot.

The violet-red was always my favorite, though.

That's a cute site. I don't like how the pencils or markers bend. They put my aim all off. :P

15. He goes with the dark yellow/gold.

Not quite as annoying as it's cousin Sunny Yellow. :rofl:

Black blocks out light which can be added pain with a migraine. That would make anyone happy. :)

Sunny colors get on my nerves.
