17th day -- Grey cat on a grey day

What is so great about a grey day? No need for sunglasses. No shadows on my pictures. Good day for a favorite hot drink. (I had two cups of Taster's Choice with hazelnut creamer --mmmmmmm.) The entire day was grey and so was the entire landscape. The horse in the corral is grey and so are the cats which followed me around the farmyard.

Grey days are cool -- in both a weather sense and an attitude sense. Somehow they seem calmer, like nature is just kicking back, not working hard at glowing or storming, just letting the clouds hang.

The common word is that grey days induce depression. Perhaps people just get too wound up with all of the frenetic activity they get involved in on bright, sunny days or all of the frenzy involved in fighting against stormy weather. Perhaps on a grey day these people just need to sit down under a shade-less tree with a steamy cup of Earl Grey tea cradled in their hands and a grey cat curled up on their lap.
