Another long seven since last time: Karina, our German exchange teacher, is here and pseudo-settled. We've got plug issues and phone issues and how-does-a-person-with-no-car-get-around-the-Valley issues but all moving to resolution.
Over the weekend we saw Anthony and Elizabetta in NYC on Saturday. We arrived early for some tile shopping and then spent afternoon and evening just kinda wandering up and downtown for some sightseeing and window shopping, ultimately winding up at Tea & Sympathy in the West Village. A great city day and a cool way to see friends.
Prior to that, time at home gearing up for hosting sandwiched around a one-night midweek scramble to West Michigan and back. Basketball continues and I'm sad to report that darkness has made after-work outdoor activities basically impossible until spring.
