Overwhelming week continues… Today, we cut one event during the day off from out plans and it was an OK day.  I even had some time to take a nap with Michelle after we got home from brunch.  In the evening Yulka invited bunch of people over our house to see everyone she hasn’t had time to see during her stay here.
