Spring Time Updates
I am alive! In case you were worried, haha. Since last I posted on here things got really busy, really quickly. We’re in the middle stages on a renovation on our house, which has caused us to basically move out of most it. I remember being so glad when we moved into a house because I was like now I will never have to pack again! Lies. All lies. Hahaha. But at least in this case it’s for a good cause. Soon our house will be even closer to what I’ve always wanted, and I’ll be happy homeowner. My monthly…

Happy Spring friends!
It is officially the start of Spring, and LA weather is actually playing nice for once. I woke up to sunshine and bird song, and the high in the city is looking to be in the mid-70s. A beautiful day to get out, do some walking, and really just appreciate the fact that it’s going to start warming up. This is my favorite time of year. I don’t mind the rain at all, and the weather when it’s warm is just gorgeous. I’ve got to soak it in before the summer temps come and push us all indoors hahaha. Anyway…

A Rainy Wednesday in March
It’s a cold, drizzly day here in So Cal and all I really want to be doing is reading. Alas, I have to work that 9 to 5 to support my reading habit in the first place, and so I’m instead content with listening to an audiobook in the background of my spreadsheet work. Do you all out there do the same? I used to listen to music too, but I find having a narrator read me a book kind of hits the spot. Especially on a day like today. As you can see, this little blog is slowly coming…
