Computer Week

Much of my attention and focus has been diverted to computer issues this week. We moved several databases from one server to another in addition to troubleshooting several problems. I don't mind these tasks, but the lack of success wears on me, particularly as the day drags on into night. I take it personally when the tools I'm responsible for providing to our staff (their computers) hinder their effectiveness more than they help them in their individual ministries. The good thing about having responsibilities over a wide variety of areas is that it breaks up any potential monotony. The bad thing about having responsibilities over a wide variety of areas is that one can get pulled in all directions at once and end up like silly putty.
