Today's Writing Prompt: Past Lives

Assuming for the sake of this prompt that you believe in past lives, who do you think you were in a past life? What events or traits do you 'remember' from the past, or connections do you feel with the past?

I have no idea who I might have been in a previous life, if such a thing even existed. Who do you think I might have been.

Only two blog posts on February 10th. Both showcase different crafts I do.

Umbrella Day

When : Always February 10th

Umbrella Day is in honor of one of the world's most invaluable inventions. On a rainy, day, we are sure glad that someone was smart enough to invent it. It's also increasingly popular to use umbrellas to shade ourselves from harmful UV radiation, and the heat of the sun.

Umbrellas come in all sorts of sizes, colors, shapes, and, designs. Businesses and organizations use them for advertising. The smallest umbrellas fit inside a purse or glove compartment. Golf umbrellas are popular sizes. Then, there are lawn and beach umbrellas. There's one (or two) made just for you.

Celebrate Umbrella Day in a couple of ways. First, make sure your umbrella is handy. Second, use it, or walk around with it. If you don't have an umbrella, isn't it time to get one?
