Dear Jim and Norma and Everyone:
Thank you for the meeting procedures
hard work is appreciated. There's a pie

Personally, I have a 8am-2pm window r,irhich gets filled with Village

Maybe we should focus on moving thro|:gh things more efficiently, keeping
a closer eye on the clock and say, "Look, it's 9:15pm and we still have
the vouchers to get through so"...let's ge! moving on this." I
think putting a bit more pressure on oui,selves to carry-out the
agenda in as efficient a manner as possiQie might work.
