I guess everyone has been listening to the talk about the Winter blahs or SAD! It certainly has been a winter condusive to such a feeling especially with all the cold and snow.
Not being a big fan of the cold, I have to admit winter isn't my favorite season. For those snowmobile lovers and ski enthusists its a perfect winter.
Don't get me wrong it can be pretty but I am a person who enjoys color and warmth..must be my age!
For some reason color seems to motivate , instill energy and make the world a little brighter all the way around!Let's face it..it isn't overly colorful at this time of year except for the colors you see in people's winter coats, hats or snow suits! Which I have to say there are some jazzy jackets out there!
Might I offer up some tips to help brighten the day if you are looking for a little extra inspiration this time of year for those who are not outdoor winter activity lovers and might be feeling a little blah !1. Buy yourself some
