Change is the Game

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Cold morning required a warm up session for the Q so the rest of the pax got the same
THE THANG: Mosey to basketball court on far side of school. Stopped on way at picnic tables for some step-ups and dips (3 rounds). The routine at the court involved 2 laps of yogging followed by a round of 3 core exercises followed by one set of suicides. We rinsed and repeated for a total of 3 full cycles of this routine. Then moseyed back to launch.
MARY: She joined throughout
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Break the Dam, trash pickup
COT: Some quick departures shrunk the COT crowd. We identified Honky Tonk and Sugar Bug as Ballroom regulars we hadn’t seen recently. One pax committed to reach out to each for a check in.

Throughout the Thang, pax traded experience regarding how change has impacted their life and whether they felt the rate of life changes was accelerating as they age or slowing. General agreement was that the volume and rate of change GROWS as we age. A comment was made about the rate of change vs EXPECTATIONS. Q Source says we prepare for what’s expected so that we’re in the best position possible to respond for the inevitable times when unexpected change will come our way.

My experience and study on life change indicates we go through many cycles and each one reflects three stages: an ending to the current reality, an uncomfortable in between period, then a new beginning. Moving past the “ending” that is really the start of change often requires a “letting go”….maybe even a grieving period. What do you need to let go of so you can move forward?

Grateful to Bass for the Q invite and the very timely reminder at Flight Plan Mon morning. Also grateful for the covey of Respectable HIM who posted to help sharpen me. May God continue to bless The Fort!

My taste was acquired

Leave a comment

The chill came back and 8 showed up for a run around the Sunbelt parking lot.

From the amphitheater at Kingsley we moseyed up to Sunbelt. At one end of the lot, we completed various upper and lower exercises that were written on my weinke. Running across the lot to the far end, we spent more time doing various upper and lower body exercises that were written on my weinke.

I gave Spike my weinke so I am going to fail to list the details of exactly what we performed.

There was a decent amount of mumblechatter that kept things just interesting enough that Super-G was able to hang. He did not stay for my motivational speech at the end and missed out on a good one. Ask me sometime about my two words for the last few years.

Old Bay was missed as his solar panels failed him this morning.
