Friday (St Nicholas)

On the road southbound at 0527. A John Grisham audio book made the time slide right by. Arrived at Green Mazda in Springfield around 0835. Left the YFNBmobile there for a service appointment and called an Uber to take me to the office.
Processed emails that arrived overnight. Organized tasks. Began doing finish work on this Sunday’s homily.
Kept at 10am appointment with the wardens of one of our Eucharistic Communities, along with the Archdeacon, to discuss some financial concerns.
Returned to, and completed, the sermon work I had begun.
Since I was carless, I walked into downtown and had pizza for lunch.
Began processing accumulated hard-copy items on my desk.
Took care of a small administrative chore.
Met was three members of the Standing Committee, at their request, to discuss a pastoral issue.
Called another Uber to take me back to the Mazda dealer and retrieve my vehicle.
Dealt with a couple of emails that have taken longer that I would have liked to rise to the top of the pile.
Friday devotion: Ignatian meditation on the daily office gospel reading for the day.
Evening Prayer in the cathedral.
