This week is all about meetings. I spent all afternoon traveling to and from and attending a very good meeting with some of my colleagues across the region. I find a lot of compassion and understanding among these dedicated ladies and I enjoy their company immensely. We had some fruitful discussion, shared some good resources and provided some rapport to each other when many others can't quite comprehend the challenges we face in our ministry.
I laughed when one of the other ladies arrived, took off her jacket and I realized we were both wearing identical sweaters from the same store. We had a lot of fun with the others who arrived afterwards asking them if they did not receive the memo about wearing the same blue sweater -- our new uniform.
Tomorrow I have a phone conference, Wednesday I have to meet with one of the volunteers from the parish, and Thursday I am at an all-day diocesan meeting.
With all of these meetings, I don't think I'm going to get a whole lot done this week!

LOL about the sweaters. I once was travelling across Canada with a group of four women and a man doing presentations for various companies in our industry. At one such presentation, three of the women showed up in navy skirts and white and burgundy striped blouses. We looked like flight attendants (and that was NOT our industry!)
Glad you got some time with women facing similar challenges. I know how important that is.
