MEETING MARATHON

Base day.....Tuesday...Marathon day.....

I'm amazed at how much can get done in one day if one is content to stay locked in a building and have back to back meetings for 8 hours. Not really the way I want to live my life...but it did free up the rest of the week. LOL

The day began with a new study session of PWOC. I'm leading e100 and it looks to be a fun class. We will cover 100 essential Bible passage (aren't they all) but this is meant to be a Bible survey - to cover 50 old and 50 new testament passages...survey the Bible and lay a foundation of a strong Biblical Worldview. It's a spectacularly  fun group.

The monthly Parish Advisory Committee meeting followed closely on PWOC....in fact, we overlapped a bit.

A PWOC finance meeting was next. Lisa and I set and decided how much money we wanted to take from each line item in our budget to leave for a summer/fall start up for the new board. This included money for the new board to attend WILD and to subsidize women who would like to go to  International Conference.  10 minutes after that.....

Local Retreat team meeting....we brainstormed, I shared all I know about planning one of these things, we actually got a LOT done and I'm excited about the vision and the shape of this year's retreat. Susan, Tara, Kristin, Lisa and team members yet to join are going to rock this.

Quick meeting with my favorite chaplain.

45 min to sit at the chapel before I was picked up to go to PWOC Book club where we discussed "One Thousand Gifts" and enjoyed Chinese food.

Tara drove me home after it all - and it was nice to visit with her too.

I did lose another camel back in the midst of the day.....but was able to spend the rest of the week at home double timing on school, play and mommy time.

Choosing Joy!
