I moved! Los Angeles here I am!
I was able to find a great place, even though it's temporary (lease is up in September).
I've lived in LA for a week now, and it has mostly rained so far. BUT there a couple sunny days.
My brother and parents came out to help me move, so on one of the sunny days, we went to Santa Monica Pier.
The place I'm currently living has a lemon tree! (see pic below)
I am still getting settled within the house...unpacking is slow going. Especially since the place is furnished, so it's a lot of seeing what's in the boxes and double checking to see if it's already provided in the house.
