CONGRATULATIONS SALLY FOR FIVE YEARS OF BLUE MONDAY FUN
Please visit Sally at Smiling Sally
for Blue Monday. If you are in love with the color blue, don't miss a
visit to Sally's blog today. Thank you for hosting your Blue Monday Blog party for five years Sally
*********************************************
LETS JOIN IN FOR SOME BIRTHDAY FUN
In other words...lets party on
Thank you Sally for caring enough to visit every person who links to your party for the last five years. That is love and respect.
Five years of Blog party fun.
I made these just for you. (Well Google had them already made)
It is not a party without a balloon.
And cake.
HERE IS WHY THE COLOR BLUE APPEALS TO SO MANY PEOPLE
Blue is the coolest color - the color of the sky, ocean, sleep, twilight. The ancient Egyptians used lapis lazuli to represent heaven. Blue symbolizes the Virgin Mary. A pure blue is the color of inspiration, sincerity and spirituality. Blue is often the chosen color by conservative people. Blue is the calming color. That makes it a wonderful color to use in the home, especially for babies. Blue is so soothing that is a good choice for pajamas. Dark blue is the color of truth and moderation. A blue iris means your friendship is very important to me.
Blue Energy
Blue gives a feeling of distance. Artists use it to to show perspective. This is a good way to understand the energy of the color blue - it allows us to look beyond and increase our perspective outward. It contains a cool vibration that is helpful to communication.
The vibration if blue can be used to open energy flow where it is blocked. Using blue to relax will encourage feelings of communication and peace.
Put some blue in your life when you want:
- calm and relaxation to counteract chaos or agitation
- to open the flow of communication
- to broaden your perspective in learning new information
Sally and Jeanne
HAPPY BLUE MONDAY BIRTHDAY MY DEAR FRIEND
Blessings and love,
JEANNE

Morning Jeanne,
I've always loved blue irises; my father grew them, but I've never tried. (No green thumb!)
Your post is a blue delight. I enjoy our friendship.
Thanks for joining in to celebrate Blue Monday’s 5th Blogiversary!

What a great bunch of blues to bring to the party! Those irises are beauties -- I don't think I've even seen any quite that blue!

Hi Jeanne! OH, you've really helped Sally celebrate! Can you believe we've been Blue Mondaying for 5 years! I love the snap of you and Sally. Hope you're doing well and I so loved your visit. I've been sewing so much I've just been popping in for visits in the morning and then before I go to bed! LOL But I'm having so much fun.
