Friday and Saturday I was working in Kansas City. We were holding a special diocesan convention on Saturday to vote on a change to the diocesan rules of order to enable us to hold an online convention in November. The special convention had to be in person with appropriate physical distancing and all the associated precautions. Friday we’d set up all the AV equipment, ready for the meeting. We hoped the meeting would be short, with just the one item to vote on. It might be a short meeting, but the preparation and break-down times are the same if the meeting lasts 30 minutes or two days.

Saturday morning, we’d finished setting everything up and everything was still working (phew!), and I checked my messages. There was one from Ginger, essentially saying she’d found a load more stuff she wanted from IKEA, and she was driving up to Kansas City.

Once our diocesan business was successfully conducted, all the gear was packed up and put away, thanks to all the staff members who helped pack everything. You saved me loads of time!

Now, to head off to IKEA!
