Tuesday (William White)

• Task planning at home over breakfast.
• Rough-processed the hard-copy pile on my desk after two weeks away. Listened to voicemail.
• Morning Prayer in the cathedral.
• Conferred with the Archdeacon on a range of issues.
• Spoke by phone with Fr Swan about the details of Fr Bill Toland's funeral tomorrow.
• Did some personal prep for the scheduled afternoon meeting of the Finance Department.
• Spent the rest of the morning working through a long list of tasks that were all generated by incoming emails over the last several days. None of the overly onerous or inordinately time-consuming, and none of urgent importance, but all of them important to the person who sent the email, and with whom I have a responsibility to keep faith.
• Lunch from Taco Gringo, eaten at home.
• Book air travel, hotel, and car rental for a conference I'm attending in Dallas in September.
• Attended and participated in the regular July meeting of the Finance Department. The agenda at this meeting is always to take a first swing at the operating budget for the coming year. Good people trying to do faithful work.
• Stepped out when the meeting ended around 4:30 for a brief personal errand.
• Scanned the accumulated hard copy in my physical inbox.
• Evening Prayer in the cathedral.
