THE THANG:

The CMU pile looks terrible. Besides the fact that all of our good coupons have been pinched, a big rubble pile has developed. It was time to clean up the house a bit and take stock of our supply.

So today we picked up as many of the broken pieces carried them to and dropped them in my trailer then did an exercise listed on a card. Repeat till all of the debris was cleared and the trailer was full. We then organized the CMUs. These are the exercises.

10 shoulder taps
10 squats
10 extra wide merkins
10 SSH
10 Big Boys
10 Diamond Merks
10 Flutters
10 Iron Mikes
10 mountain climbers
1 burpee

After clean up was over we ran to the pull up bar. We worked on slow pull downs. Start at the top and slowly drop taking about 10 secs each time. Do it about 3x. While waiting hold plank or alternate between 15 merkins and 15 squats.

Finally we ended up at the playground for a mini obstacle course. Start at the bench and do 15 dips, go down the slide, do 3 burpees, go to swings and do 15 reverse rows, then do 15 chuck Norris merkins, and finally mosey across the bridge and back around to the bench where we started. We did this 3x. Held plan for the 6.

MARY:
Nope

COFFATERIA:
Went to Dunkin after for liars corner. Eliza joined us. It was fantastic.

COT:
I hope everyone had a great Easter weekend. I hope you all have taken a moment to ponder the mystery. Did you ever wonder if Easter wasn’t real? Maybe it is all fake? We can certainly say that the course of Western History was changed for the good because of the events around Easter. Something did happen. But really the point of Easter is that God brings the dead to life. It’s a revolutionary concept that if we believe our lives cannot be the same. The living don’t act like dead things. That’s just not logical. If alive, why act like a corpse?

So do you think Easter happened? Do you live like it did?

It was raining so we sheltered at the church entrance. We did a Dora style workout.

We listened to the pirates of the Caribbean soundtrack in anticipation of Escape from Hawaii Ridge.

We contemplated the verse affixed to the statue at the front of the school…

““Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.””

COT:
“God must do everything for us. Our part is to yield and trust.”

“O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need for further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, the Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show me Thy glory, I pray Thee, so that I may know Thee indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, ‘Rise up my love, my fair one, and come away.’ Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from this misty lowland where I have wandered so long.” – A.W. Tozer
