Vestry Graduate

Image
I am no longer part of the Vestry at Christ Church Norcross. I served my full term as the Buidings and Grounds liaison. It was three years. There was a lot of items to deal with over the years. But the effort wasn't the work. It was the responsibility and knowing that I wasn't doing enough. I think most people get that feeling with obligations. Maybe not. I am sure the time and responsibility will be quickly reallocated. When I signed on I figured I would learn something. Now I am thinking about what I learned along with the hows and whys.

I was right. This past week was a blur. I want to slow things down. I am moved into my new house. There was a lot to do of course, I got my appliances and the Internet today. I had to settle for a 35 Mbps Internet connection with a 8ms latency. What a difference from the farm. On the farm I had to spend a fortune each month for a 2 Mbps connection with a 900ms latency. We went flying this past weekend and went to a "Brazilians in Atlanta" meetup party. Fun stuff! I have two trips booked, one to Wisconsin and an another to North Dakota. I will be going for a significant trip to Europe and another to South America in the next couple of months. It is important to remember the danger of traffic in the Atlanta area. It really is dangerous.
