Thursday (Lancelot Andrewes)

Up and out for an 0800 chiropractor appoint. At my “work station” about 1030.
Began responding to a short stack of late-arriving emails that were not yet in the task system, some of them minor but urgent.
Had an extensive conversation with one of our parish clergy who phoned me.
Dealt with some lingering details regarding the text of my synod address, how it should be processed for publication by the Communications Coordinator.
Lunched on leftovers.
Opened a sermon file on Proper 27, which will find me at St Matthew’s, Bloomington on November 10.
Broke off from this work to take Brenda to an acupuncture appointment, where I leveraged the opportunity to get some reading done.
Returned to the sermon task, make some initial notes on the readings.
Took a brisk 35-minute walk.
Evening Prayer with Brenda.
After dinner: Attended to some routine calendar maintenance chores. Got packed and loaded for an 0-dark-thirty departure for Springfield in the morning (with a breakfast appointment in Bloomington en route).
