CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Last week I had the privilege to spend four days with family and good friends in Elkmont. It was a sweet time of disconnecting from phone/internet/tv/etc (no service out there!) and intentionally connecting person to person with others. We can’t always take four days, but I encourage you to try one hour a day in the evening, intentionally disconnecting from distractions and connecting with your family.
MOLESKIN:
Second Tuesday in a row I’ve been on Q out here with CMUs… Is CMUesday gonna be a thing?

None today… That I could remember anyway.

From BBS position, hold CMU with straight arms, bring it down and touch the ground above your head.
In one smooth motion, bring it back up, out past your knees, and rise to a standing position, then back down.
Cash out with about 25 Merkins

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
Just four PAX today… One on Q and 3 that forgot to check the Q schedule and found themselves at a Waxjob beatdown.
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
During today’s Q, there were times of just standing still, doing work, while others cruised on by. Life can seem like that sometimes. You seem stuck in one spot, not making progress no matter how hard you work, while others seem to be moving at a rapid pace. In those times, be patient. Wait on God. Keep doing the last thing He told you to do. When it’s His time, He’ll move you.
MOLESKIN:
We definitely looked the part of Asylum inmates today, stealing CMUs one at a time and running off with them…
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Farragut Independence Day Parade on the 4th… Come out and put the EH on some sad clowns!
