Green for Go!
Green is an energising colour. It’s all around us in the trees and the plants.
A green traffic light tells us it’s safe to proceed. People even say they’ve ‘given something the green light,’ meaning that they accept the proposition, whatever it may be.
The green light on our vacuum cleaner operates at floor level and tells us something different. It highlights every particle of dust. Operating the vacuum cleaner is quite mesmeric, as it shows a never-ending quantity of small detritus to be sucked up from our hard floors.
We have animals so there is fur and dust in abundance.
It is not the gadget for an obsessive homeowner, because however many times the machine is passed across the floor, there is always more to be picked up.
Vacuuming in our house is a Sisyphean task.
Green is such a happy color. Even when it indicates that we're picking up for, lol.
ReplyDeleteThere are so many different shades of green, especially in Spring.
ReplyDeleteI don't miss all the dog and cat hair I used to have to vacuum up. When daughter and dogs visit I find it for weeks lol
Green is probably my favorite color ... all shades.
ReplyDeleteAnd even though we're down to just two cats the amount of fur and dust never seems to diminish.
Yes, vacuuming in a home that has a Labrador in residence can be very challenging on a daily basis 😂
