Hello Marianne,
In Down-under land we had DO at 6am followed by collegium then brekky and off to work! Last month John and I did a very fast trip to NZ to visit family. Auckland - Whitianga - Palmerston North, Marton, Whanganui, Hawera, Opunake, Mokau, Taupiri - and home. All in 8 days and a rental car.
G&Peace Elaine and John

And then if we were parents and were participating in all of the above, it was a challenge to cover all the bases and get the kids ready for school. Don’t know how single parents ever pulled that off!
But, we were young and resilient then, weren’t we?….. And we might have been assigned to security duty the night before from 1 - 4 AM, even if we “worked out” and had to head for a professional job in the Loop at 8 AM.
Ah, the memories that remind us of our power of radical, decisional commitment on behalf of the mission.

Trying to remember….was daily office at 6 am with wake up 5 am? I remember it being dark and cold when we walked to the Jet hanger in 5th City for Daily Office.
