New year to try new things.

MOLESKIN

signed up for Yoga, something I have never done before. I hate stretching but need to try something different because what I am doing now is not working! That’s just one thing I am trying that is new to me but not going to hold back on any new and different opportunities. Having said that, SHOUT out to BAGGER and SPOTTER for trying new things, posting at the BURBS! I think Bagger may have been a little apprehensive on posting at the burbs. Well, I can tell you Spotter and Bagger held there own. I think they realized perception is not always reality and you never know until you try something new. They both kicked ass and glad they stepped out of their normal AO to try something new. Yep, guilty of this too. Most of the reasons I hold back or elect not to do, is not believing that I can do it. Not something I want to do anymore, hold back on expanding my horizons, so to speak. Today was a great day and looking forward to tomorrow!

AYE

    20 PAX at the AO this morning!
    CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
    Lead by example.  I have had similar WORDs before, but this one seems to stay on my mind a lot.  Raising kids can be difficult especially considering the impact that we have on them with the way we act in our lives.  Arguing is a big topic in the Erector household with my 6 year old boy right now.  I caught myself yesterday telling him to stop arguing to which he responded “I am not arguing” and then I said “Yes you are!”.  What did I just do?  I argued about him arguing.  So there I go leading by showing my son how to argue.  Sort of the opposite affect that YHC intended.  Remember how impactful you can be with even the small things in your day-to-day.  Do your best to lead by example and look to Jesus as the ultimate example to follow in life.
    MOLESKIN:
    What a way to start off my birthday surrounded by a great group of HIMs early in the morning!  Thanks to all who attended.  See you in the gloom!

Headed out running toward Gallaher View and did that big Middlebrook loop to Vanosdale and back into the park. On the way we stopped about every 3/4 mile for more of the same PT, 20 Merkins, 20 Lawnmowers per arm and 20 Ruck up gas pumpers. Once we got back to the park we went looking for cookie butter at TJ’s, but alas, I always forget they aren’t open that early so we did more of the same PT. We still had minutes left for one more peak at TJ’s and then cashed out with 10 of all the PT.
