There's a difference?
Sep. 30th, 2024 10:32 pmNot a busy day. Had a check up with the dentist and bumped into a colleague, their spouse and their baby! Check up was fine and the dentist also chipped off a load of tartar around my bottom front teeth - and tried to sell me an air clean for £70. I don't feel the staining is THAT bad and I have other things to spend that money on, so no thanks :)
Got the governance doc redrafted to include the new PMF. Took all afternoon and felt like a real slog, even though it's not that long or complicated a document - my brain just didn't wanna. But it's done. I'll give it another read through later in the week. I also have a feeling I wanted to put more stuff in it, so I need to have a think about that.
And this evening was PCC, which went on far too long. I suggested getting people to submit reports ahead of the meeting, so we only talk about what actually needs to be talked about! But I did get a thank you from the vicar for the Tuesday evening prayer, which was really nice actually. I don't think of it as a big thing, it's just very much me being me - but it's nice to know that's appreciated :) The group is now on pause whilst I do the Cultivate course and gather a team to run it with me. At the moment, if I'm not available it doesn't happen, so there's just the practicality of keeping it going every week. But also it hasn't morphed into the New Monastic thing I envisioned, at least not deliberately or in a focussed way. The Cultivate course is being run across the new 'super parish', so I may meet some like-thinking souls as part of that.
Our new curate is a Southerner and is still learning to navigate Liverpool. We had a big discussion on the difference between Woolton and Walton - but however carefully I pronounced them, they couldn't catch the difference >D
Anyway, it's late and I need to sleep. Goodnight, DW!
