Friday

Morning Prayer in the cathedral.
Tweaked, refined, and printed working notes for my sermon this Sunday, at Christ Church, Springfield.
Laid down the broad rough strokes of next week’s Lenten teaching series presentation at Trinity, Lincoln.
Performed necessary surgery on some sermon material for Lent III used in a prior yet, in preparation for preaching at St Bartholomew’s, Granite City on the 27th.
Kept an 11am appointment with my primary care physician, following up on “Drama in Danville” the Sunday before last.
Lunch from Qdoba, eaten at home.
Packed for an overnight and processed a few emails.
Hit the road northbound with Brenda just past 2:30, headed for a 6pm dinner engagement with one of our postulants and his family in the inner ring Chicago suburb of Riverside (actually, just a few feet from an apartment where I lived for a year nearly 60 years ago. I still have some rather vivid memories of that place.
Bedded down in Schaumburg, ahead of tomorrow afternoon’s celebration of my mother’s 90th birthday.
