COT: we all got an opportunity to share what was weighing on our hearts and minds. Because after all, we are men and whether we like it or not, we can’t fix everything on our own. Don’t be ashamed to be vulnerable and reach out for help!
Nice crowd today due to the anticipation of what the Q had to say.
Set the route, and about 5 out of the 20 something took it. Others went wherever they wanted.
Two things mentioned in COT: First- AirPods…Grab the case in the AM and see that the buds aren’t in there. Realize you left them in your workout shorts the day before that have been washed and dried. Release every angry foul word in your vocab as you search for them. Find them in the bottom of the dryer in a rage. Put them in the case. Light goes on. They work. Sorry to our Lord and Savior for the rage. Second: Get life insurance if you don’t have it.
Lots of announcements! Including please sign up for Care Center Lawn mowing. And bring/purchase supplies for stuff the bus.
