The rains are back. It started raining Friday morning, and now - at 8:51 pm on Friday as I write, it's still raining.
I have an umbrella - one of those compact umbrellas that collapse and fold into something that fits into your handbag. I got it at a drugstore or a discount store, and I don't even remember why I chose this one.It's pink.
Yes, pink.
Bright shocking pink.It's easy to find, since it stands out in a dark and cluttered closet. It adds a note of cheerfulness to a gloomy day. It makes me visible on the street when I'm walking with it. At work, when people put their umbrellas out by the loading dock to dry out, I can always recognize mine. And the best part?
I figure that neither my husband nor my son will make off with this one.
Stay warm and dry this Pink Saturday, everyone!
Update, Saturday 6:37 AM: It's still raining!
We have ice and snow...again! I love the pink umbrella.

ReplyDeleteGreat color. Makes you want to go out in the rain!
ReplyDeleteNow that is a brilliant idea! A shocking pink umbrella is one that I wouldn't leave somewhere either because I would see it! Now, I've got to find one like yours! Love it!
ReplyDeleteHappy Pink Saturday...
XO,

I love that umbrella. It would make me smile, too!
ReplyDeleteMy husband bought me a special umbrella about 10 years ago via a catalog. It has Van Gogh's iris painting silkscreened on it.
In the midst of our record-making storm here, I think you have it worse with mudslides there.
Stay safe!
O I want one - it's fabulous

What a fabulous shot! The rain looks like glass glitter on your pretty pink umbrella. At least it's not snow. We got two feet of it last night! Have a great weekend and please stop by for a visit if you're able. Terri

ReplyDeleteWe got a different kind of precipitation this week: the sky opened up and buried us under thirty inches of snow.
THAT color is great!
