Oops

I'd sent my assessor drafts of the prayers I'd written for tomorrow, for her comments and advice. I must admit, I wasn't very happy with the intercession prayer, as it didn't seem long enough. Intercession prayers, in particular, I have always toiled with. I find it difficult to get the balance right of, hopefully, speaking to the whole congregation, yet not singling out a particular group, news item or (most heinous of all) having a personal prayer.

It was unfortunate my assessor hadn't a chance to get back to me until last night. Such is the nature of the job of ministry. It's unfortunate as I tend to do all my printing at work (with their authorisation, if you were wondering). She hadn't made too many changes, but enough I needed to reprint what I had. Okay, not a problem, just print them again once I get in from being out for the day.

That's when disaster struck. Plug PC into printer, try to print and nothing happens. Why? Because we're out of ink! So, off my hubbie and I toddle to buy some more ink (thank goodness for 24 hour stores!). This is made slightly farcical as about an hour earlier we'd been in the same shop for butteries ingredients!

Ne'er mind. At least the store had the ink we need in stock and I managed to get prints run off. Now, I'm having a shop around for spare ink. Perhaps I should have thought of that before. Oh well, hindsight is a wonderful thing!
