A big crazy meeting planned for tonight is stressing me out. Here we are preparing for our biggest and hopefully most productive vision meeting yet, and I am worried about food. I'm not actually doing anything about it, but I am worrying about it trying to figure something out that is minimal work, and everyone will eat.

What I should be doing is planning how to move from a discussion about ideas to organizing those ideas into concrete statements. I should be condensing and figuring out how to direct a group discussion instead of what kind of food can I cook up. Do I even need to cook something or are people expecting to bring a bag supper? Are they expecting to eat later? Other minsitry groups when they meet over meal time order pizza. Should we? Not everyonecan eat pizza in this group. How long does it take for a roast to thaw before you can cook it? How long does it take to cook?

Aaaaaahhh!
