Introduction
Slept great and woke up before the alarm so I decided to EC with Sparky. We did not quite get 2 but still a good way to start the day.
As I was leaving the house I realized how relaxed I was about this Q. No stress at all. I had my Wienke but had not even looked at it as I knew the entire thing. I had no extra supplies to bring just show up and do the thing. How different this Q was from my first couple where I was so stressed that I barely slept the night before.
I guess it takes 10 Q’s to be total comfortable with the process.

Dear Heavenly Father
Thank You for this day;
Thank You for these men,
Thank you for the freedom to choose the Daily Red Pill and those who help us to be better at this life
those who model, those who encourage and those who build up
Help us to take all that we have gained here In The Gloom and give it up for your glory.
Help us to use it to be better Fathers, Husbands, Friends and Neighbors.
In your Son’s Holy name we pray!
AMEN

Two things:
1 – This was a last minute pivot. I was asked to do the US Marshall Service Fallen Heros Run yesterday and i was more than happy to accommodate, It is great to be able to support this cause and pay some respect to the men and women who put their life on the line for us. (The Q I had written will be saved for a later date. Prefferably not the day after a Baby Hands upper body scorcher)
2 – Ann Arbor doing the “Open The Gate” walking stretch was possibly one of the funniest things I have seen all year. He had the entire group in stitches. I really wish someone had a video.
