Umbrellas Wide Open

Sometimes spreading your arms wide to take in the world is just not quite big enough.

And so it begins...

I have been tossing around the idea of doing a blog for a while now. I often observe seemingly benign everyday occurrences happening around me and think, "If I had a blog I would absolutely post about ____"... but alas, I had no blog.

I am an observer, and careful one at that. If pressed to pick five words to describe myself I would absolutely use "observant" as one of five precious choices.

Being the observant girl I am, everyday occurrences often make me take note, take pause and reflect... Time consuming? Certainly. Worth it? With out a doubt.

So, dear reader, this is what I hope to bestow on you... moments that did not pass me by, pause that I did take and perhaps a few reflections on life as I see it.

hey! thanks for reading my little blog, so the candleholders do have wax dripped inside and you would still want them? Just want to make sure, I know there is a way to get it out but not sure. Well they were $9.95 each so maybe around $100? If you are in the Chicago area it might be better to meet to give them to you instead of shipping them, IF you are even interested. They are really quite pretty, I am said they aren't still in perfect condition.
