Moleskin:
YHC wanted to deliver a full body workout today and hoped that he achieved that goal. Phrases like, “We always do foreplay here”, and “We’ve never monkey humped in this tight of an enclosed space” were uttered. Perhaps YHC could’ve used counseling techniques by asking probing questions like, “Why do you feel that foreplay is so important?”, or “What about MHing in such an enclosed space intimidates you?” YHC wasn’t sure what kind of culture Tammy Faye had created at his AO, but just went with it. The “Turn Brothers” (Turncoat and Turnpike) were representing today and got it done. Both wore shorts straight up in the cold, so it was determined that both are studs. AM-PM was happy to work alongside Poolboy again. Tammy Faye was a great partner for YHC during Mary. Perrier might have made one of the statements above, but we won’t say which. Roadie got it done as usual and was taking HOA related notes (even though he’s not on the Birkdale board anymore) like bridge inspections and curbs being uneven. All Pax got it done today. Thanks to Roadie for the cup of Joe at Coffeteria and to AM-PM for the prayer session we had. YHC had a lot on his mind today and was a bit out of sorts due to emotion. However, it was a good reminder that it’s always great to start the morning with F3 brothers. F3 is a gift, don’t take it for granted. Thanks for the prayers gents.
Prayer Requests:
-Friday’s family with the recent loss of his M
-Tammy Faye will be putting down his furry friend of 12 years today
-Toby’s daughter (Eva)
-Kotters
-Pax who are caregiving for aging parents and health issues among them.
-Unspokens in all F3 circles.
-AM-PM’s sister.
-Stray’s recovery.
Announcements:
-Begin thinking about donating to Operation Sweet Tooth’s Christmas present/toy drive when shopping.
-There are plenty of Q slots at all AO’s. Please sign up. For new Pax, volunteer to lead/Q (we’ll help you co-Q). For you seasoned guys, sign up for some Q’s.
-Invite a FNG or brother you haven’t seen in a while who’s a Kotter. Invite that #just1 who needs you more than you know (an invitation is a powerful thing brothers). If none of those work for you, just show up. No one will be left behind, but it all starts with the discipline to take one.
Until next time…
