Introduction
“If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail!”
―
The planning for me began yesterday 8/17. Thankfully I can get creative and find ways I can incorporate my M and my 2.0’s into my F3 Family. As soon as I wrapped up my last files for the day, I loaded up my 2.0’s and said lets go to the park. As we pulled in the lot my girls asked,”Dad where’s the playground”? LOL I proceeded to explain we were scoping out the scene for today’s beatdown. Ruby my middle 2.0 asked what the name of this park was, I proudly replied “The Complex”.
I pulled in the lot at 4:57am not minute after Wet Wipe pulls in his bad ass white Ram. He plants his flag, I plant mine and I proceed to the location of Thang 1 to rearrange the tables by the vending machines. From the distance I see the parking lot being filled quickly (5:08am). I scope out the scene one more time, making my way back to the lot looking at the sky saying a quick prayer asking the Lord for strength.

Circle of Trust
Simple message this morning… Get on the Q Sheet!
Five months in F3 and Q’ing is still uncomfortable. Especially when Q’ing for the first time at a different AO. That’s life though, Shandy said it on Friday. We must remember everything we want is on the outside of our comfort zone. F3 is free yet the price of admission is Q’ing. I challenged the MEN who have been with us two-three months to step up to the plate. I encouraged them to try and talked about how bad my first Q was yet I’m still here. F3 is a “safe zone” IMO. I can come here mess up yet walk away more confident than I arrived. It’s not as bad as we make it up to be, change the story in your head. Mind over matter! I proceeded to ask everyone who was on the Q sheet in the next couple weeks to raise their hand….point made (learned that from Fib). Urkel and Shandy are blessing us weekly with Q school so I ask,”What’s your excuse?”.
Ended with a prayer.
Naked Man Moleskin
Man o man what a morning. I was definitely not expecting 27 PAX to show up. Talk about NO PRESSURE! My game plan was tailored for about 16 PAX (lesson learned; think BIGGER). I thought to myself how cool is this and then immediately prayed a little more as I knew I would need an extra push. The energy was HIGH and everyone was fired up which only got me in the ZONE that much faster. My M sent me a text at 4:58am saying (U got this). I did the best I could with 27 PAX on hand and proceeded to Thang One. Flush and Hootie set the pace early and lever let up. I appreciate them helping me lead. Wet Wipe was ON IT with the 6 and even texted me the night before asking if I wanted music today, thanks brother! Both 2.0’s were pushing as well (Cobra Kai & Redhawk) good work young MEN! I made sure to tell them how proud I was of their efforts. Towards the end there was a lot of mummblechatter and the suicides were just the icing on the cake as I wanted to leave the PAX gassed! We had three minutes of Mary and mubblechatter was higher at this point so I proceeded to make them pay until ever second (till 6:00am) was accounted for.
Thanks for filling my bucket MEN! I hope I added value to you as you did for me. My intention is always to have you walk away happy you HC’d. To put the cherry on top of the F3 sundae NOT ONE HIM FARTSACK #GETSOME
Signing off…..
See you @ the TOP!
