Pledge

Moleskin:

It was awesome to be back and spend sometime with my brothers. Traveling with work as often as I have in the last 9 months has been both rewarding and challenging. Doing “The Pentagon” has become my favorite Q, so you will see it more often. I couldn’t have pull it off without everyone’s help. Not only people who posted but several who lended coupons and items even though they couldn’t post at Scrooge. It was a true team effort. To everyone’s surprise this was the first Q in which I didn’t have Freddy Mercuries. Nurse Jackie actually spoke during the warm up about “trying your honest best.” Doesn’t matter if someone is looking at your reps or not, make sure your conscious is clear when saying “I tried my best.”

Prayers and announcements:

– NJ working on a 2.0 workout. Date still to be announced.
