That was the goal in my head. It was met. So who was the Baddest Man Alive? No one here but we sure ended up as High Impact Men!
MoM: Wrapped up the last five minutes of our beatdown with the following exercises: American Hammers, Mountain Climbers, Big Boy Sit Ups, Flutter Kicks, Oblique V Ups
Moleskine: Everyone experiences grief and loss differently. Today, I just reminded the Pax that we often times may feel guilty when we experience moments of joy during our grief. Lean into God during times of grief. Remember that it is okay to give yourself permission to experience joy while dealing with grief.
Prayers: Praise for Manhole’s grandmother on celebrating her 95th birthday. Prayers for Cookies’ M and Gummi Bear’s M and their current health battles. Asking that God provide them with strength, comfort and his healing hand.
