I love days when the sun is out, the sky is crystal clear, and the weather is warm with a cool wind. It energizes me and puts me into a good mood for the rest of the day. I feel productive and happy, and I tend to have a better day.

But I also love cloudy, rainy days. They make me want to curl up with a blanket, book, candle, and warm coffee. However, these types of days are not so wonderful when you’re stuck at work. Although I still feel safe and cozy, I feel more inspired to take a nap on my desk than strike up a conversation with a client. Today is one of those uncommon, rainy days in LA.

If I had it my way, every weekday would be beautiful and Saturdays would be my cozy days. Do you hear me, planet Earth? Make it happen!

What’s your favorite kind of weather?

Started biking to work, and as a result ended up at work pretty early a few times which resulted in waiting in the lobby for someone else to open up the office. I have yet to figure out why I sometimes get to work in 10 minutes one day and 20 minutes the other. I guess I don’t realize when I’m speeding down the road, but I’m sure getting there in 10 minutes is because I’m pedaling a lot faster.

Roses! Josh knows that if he doesn’t get me roses on special days, I’m not a happy person. Red roses are my favorite flower. I love the smell and look… They’re just amazing. He forgot a vase, but luckily I was finally able to use my white pitcher vase for something. Seeing as how we barely get any natural light in this apartment, I’m betting these will die by Valentine’s Day. But that’s okay, because we celebrated this weekend.

The color on this is not exactly what my makeup looked like in person, but I still like the vintage effect. I don’t wear lipstick often, but going out for lunch to celebrate Valentine’s Day was a good excuse as any to wear red, don’t you agree?

We went to Market City Cafe in Burbank. The bread is always tasty fresh and that alone is enough to get me in the door. I’m a carb addict. The last time we ate here, a violin group was playing. No entertainment last weekend, unfortunately. We still had a nice view and I watched the little birds play in the fountain behind us.

The day after that, I turned into a rampaging cleaning lady, which included assigning cleaning tasks and taking on the couch myself. I washed the cover for the first time, and boy am I glad that cover was washable… Apparently our dogs have very dirty feet. Who knew?

I’ve decided to try a new series of posts! Every Monday I’ll post a “week in review” type of entry that consists of my Instagram photos. I think it’ll get me to take more photos and share glimpses of my personal life.

First one at work again, but no key to open the office. Luckily, this is happening much less.

Another rare rainy day in LA. Kind of nice this time, but it made me realize I need a new umbrella.

Walked the dogs last weekend and it was beautiful out. I think this was the day after it rained.

After months and months of saving up, I was finally able to afford a bike! I plan on switching to bike for most of my transportation needs. Read my entry here for reasons why! I still need a helmet and a basket for holding small groceries/bags. Maybe I should post a series on my conversion from car to bike?

Growing accustomed to owning a couch. I think Ein and Max are pretty settled in.This is a daily sight…
