My family is having a houseguest fly in from Houston this weekend, but since the house is still under renovation, we had to improvise. An extra bed was put in the formerly empty guest room, which had been vacated as part of the redesign, and we spent all day yesterday running around Overland Park looking for linens that we liked since the bespoke ones we ordered from Eastern Accents as part of the Berkshire Hathaway shareholder discount haven’t shown up, yet. At the very least, we have another backup pair of bedding we can cycle in the various rooms throughout the year. I also got some other errands done, so it’s been a productive day or two but I’m exhausted. I’m too tired to even post other pictures, so here is what I could get to the fastest. I need to go sit down for a moment.
We finally got the guest room setup, although it came down to the deadline too close for comfort ...
We made a Triple Chocolate Bundt Cake with chocolate cake batter, chocolate icing, and Ghirardelli milk chocolate chips, dusted with yellow sugar crystals and served with cold, whole milk and hot coffee as a welcome.
I’ll still try to keep up on the posting but if I’m slow, sorry. The only chance I’ll probably get will be late at night or early in the morning, while I’m still in bed.

Hey Joshua -- help me out here -- I'm reading about the headaches with Chesepeake and saw that "Louis Simpson" was a board member. Is that the same Lou Simpson of Berkshire fame? Any thoughts?
