red umbrellas and rain!

Oh, how I wish the red umbrellas and rain applied to my day right now. Instead, it is a bright, sunny and warm day in Southern California... typical! :) I have spent the day slaving away in the garage, cleaning all the junk out of there with my mom and Andrew. What a fun way to spend today, right? Well....after last night's sad attempt at posting something red (what the hell was I thinking???? dorothy????!!! I think I was blinded by fatigue!!!!)... I figured it was time to post something worth looking at. So I was google-ing red umbrellas because I am obsessed with the rain, and it just so happens I was able to find an awesome painting of New York City in the rain.. complete with the red umbrella! Fits perfectly into the "i see red" week, don't you think??

I don't know how many of you have been to New York City, but it is one of my favorite places on earth. If I was not tied down in any way to my life here in California, I would live there in a second. What an amazing place.... :)

I think these red umbrella pictures capture such a special part of rainy days.... and they are just so beautiful! Hope you all are enjoying a wonderful day, and to anyone who lives in a rainy place today, I AM SO JEALOUS! ;)
