Thursday (St Lucy)
by Bishop Daniel
on December 13, 2018
- Morning Prayer before dawn in our domestic oratory.
- Fixed tea and “paleo” pancakes while conversing with Brenda.
- Took my daily walk on the early side today, leaving at 0815 and returning at 0930.
- Got cleaned up, began to pack, replied to an email, organized some things I needed to bring with me to Springfield, finished packing, and left the apartment a little past 1100.
- Headed south, with a fast-food lunch stop past the Des Plaines River, and pulled into the diocesan center at 2:50, ten minutes ahead of a 3:00 appointment.
- Met with diocesan treasurer Rod Matthews for about an hour.
- Processed accumulated hard-copy items on my desk
- Got started on a *very* thick stack of emails, all of which required a fairly prompt response.
- Evening Prayer in the cathedral.
- Dinner at Freddy’s Steakburgers on West Wabash, then back to the office for more email processing.
