Holding on dearly to our Heavy Mettle
All Highlands BackblastsDecember 7th, 2020
While YHC posted the weekly Q list last night, which had zero Q commitment for the week, @gordo signed up to Q Mettle Monday. Then a few minutes later, he admitted being nervous for a virgin mettle Q and seeking help from @ponyboy. While @ponyboy remained silent, it appeared that @gordo’s nervousness got to be too much and he backed out of Qing. Apparently his wife had to go to work! Then YHC decided to put on his big boy pants and signed up to Q with no HC the night before. By 5:27 am, YHC spotted @illuminati and then @blacksheepf3 right at 5:30am. The disclaimer was given, and when @blacksheepf3 learned that the beatdown awaiting the 3 of us was Kettle Bells Never Leave your hands or the KB never touch the ground, he came close to going back home. We moseyed around the parking lot round about and circled up for warmarama.

MOLESKIN
- Prayers for @ONJ sister who is battling cancer.
- Prayers for all those with physical and mental illnesses.
- Prayers for the least fortunate as we go into Christmas Holiday! We sometimes forget that Christmas is celebrating Jesus’ birthday and the present should be giving to him. While it is fun to give each other presents, the largest present should go to Jesus. We all know he has soft spots for the least fortunate, the widows, orphans etc. Let’s open up our wallet for this holiday by giving our largest present to him. IF you don’t know where to start, then start with your local church. There are also many good organizations that are in desperate needs right now. They are not hard to find.
- Please consider donating blood on Dec 11th at Prosperity Presbyterian Church.
- Thanks to @illuminati and @blacksheepf3 for joining YHC this morning and pushing one another.
- @blacksheepf3, note to self on not posting the Preblast about the “KB not leaving our hands” beatdown. YHC is just glad you didn’t leave.
- With the KB exercises @blacksheepf3 has been doing OTB, that sounded like a HC to Q next week. At least that is how @illuminati and YHC understood it.
- Have a great week! Always a pleasure leading!
