We asked care for The Mick’s wife’s surgery on Monday, Scarecrow’s dad’s upcoming surgery, Pac Rat’s dad’s health, Tank’s family difficulties, Lights Outfamily members who need healing, Coors’ wife’s pregnancy and The Mick’s daughter-in-law’s pregnancy(if I forgot any other petitions I apologize).
Moleskin
Hope everyone got that full body melt-down feeling! Loved the mumble chatter this morning – a sign Pax were having fun and getting a burn at the same time. Also, a sign that the Q needed pauses in-between sets to catch his breath (I really wanted to sit on the picnic benches for a while and just chill, but…duty called). Shout outs to Bessie and The Bard who did not chatter but tore this Beatdown up. I thought a newbieBessie would feel this more than he seemed to – its clear he was fit to begin with. Nice job. I do not know The Bard well; he was next to me and did a great job on Thang One. He had no problem keeping up either. I did see nice “” variations”” in the Freddy Mercury’s by Bob Villa and a couple others. But, who can argue with the weightless and shape he is in! He is the Champion.
We got lots of wit, I mean dumb wit from Pac Rat, but its Pac Rat and no exercises phase him, so … I think Scarecrow and Fonzie played along with Pac Rat, but I could not really tell. And no exercisesphase them either. Al Gore kills me with his sandbag or his block – I find those tools evil now. Taxman,Bozo, Lights Out, Minion, Thunder, and Atticus were finishing tasks earlier and looking for extra credit, Bozo and Lights Out took an extra lap or two late in the Dora. Bert was quiet in the background, back did the moves with strength and precision, like always – way to get it done. Dr. Freud did a stair challenge yesterday and struggle to get on top of the picnic table seat today, but he got it done too. Mufasa and Optimus just like to work – no goofing just grinding out the meltdown. Studs. HHH was my Dora partner and thankfully carried me knocking out extra reps. Thanks buddy.
In other words, a great time was had by all. I worked-out without a hat as my brain was boiling wondered how, no why, did I come up with this monstrosity. I hope you all melted a pound or two away this morning. Thanks for playing along again.
All the best!
The Mick
