St Thomas (O Oriens)

90 minutes on the treadmill. MP while cooling down.
Task planning and some email processing over breakfast.
In the office around 10:15. Conferred briefly with the Dean.
Conferred briefly with the Communicator on an ongoing project.
Wrote and sent an email to a priest whose ordination anniversary this is.
Worked on my homily for Epiphany I (January 7 at Trinity, Lincoln). Brought it from the “message statement” phase to the “developed outline” phase.
Hand-wrote a note of condolence to a colleague bishop who has suffered the death of a close family member.
Prepared the contents of a ceremonial binder with parts of the Christmas Eve liturgy that are proper to the Bishop–large print for aging eyes being the guiding rubric here.
Attended the Mass for the feast day of St Thomas, which is the 28th anniversary of my own first Mass.
Lunch at home. Leftovers.
Cooperating with the Dean in a videography project in support of the cathedral’s social media footprint. It involved donning an alb, stole, cope, and mitre; holding a crozier, and swinging a thurible. I’m eager to see the results.
Attended to an ongoing bit of pastoral/administrative business. It was a time-consuming slog, but important.
Evening Prayer in the cathedral.
