Most Holy Theotokos, save us!

I normally use the HTM prayerbook...the canon for Holy Communion the night before, and the morning of, I continue with the psalms and prayers before Holy Communion.  My question:  What if it is an evening Liturgy?  When do I say the canon (which is normally said during compline)?  Do I still say it during compline, say, on Tuesday night, then sometime before Wednesday night liturgy, I find time to say the other prayers?  Please advise.

In Christ,

Rdr. Michael

It is probably best to still do them during compline... evening liturgies (i.e. vesperal liturgies) are intended to shake up part of the daily cycle, but not all of it, and doing the canon at compline would still be putting them in their proper place.
