Backblast 6/14 #Agony #The County

Well my VQ came and went but not without some bumps.  Epic fail when I left the shovel flag at home…on Flag Day no less…I’m surprised I wasn’t crucified for that one but the PAX were surprisingly gentle.  I was certainly nervous about giving a good workout and I was feeling juiced.

 

COP

– Side Straddle hops x 50

Rollcall:

Meter Maid, Aerobie (R) ,Valdez, Big Bird, Abicus, Cochran, Double Down (R), Iceman (R), Mama’s boy, Irsey, Airplane, Porkchop (Q)

 

Ended with intentions.  Prayers for Pope and Abicus’ family.  Read a quote from Marcus Aurelius Meditations:

“Concentrate every minute like a Roman— like a man— on doing what’s in front of you with precise and genuine seriousness, tenderly, willingly, with justice. And on freeing yourself from all other distractions. Yes, you can— if you do everything as if it were the last thing you were doing in your life, and stop being aimless, stop letting your emotions override what your mind tells you, stop being hypocritical, self-centered , irritable. “

 

Thanks for hanging with me guys.

PS  I am apparently a HC for Tuesday at St Al’s since I need to return the Shovel Flag.  Looking forward to Iceman’s Revenge.

PPS I love the palettes and there will be more to come!  Muhaha!
