Stadium Ulty> always great to have the coaches there, even if we've lost the inspirational BM and JH. Wore Nike batting gloves because of the cold, ended up keeping them on. Ended up playing awesome D with great dives, probably because of the keeper mentality I got from wearing the gloves. I miss soccer. But ulty was great.

Fencing Practice: one of the best yet (granted, I've only been to 4). had stations: 1. tag (no more than 2 advances to touch, no parries, if miss it's the opponent's turn immediately), 2. target practice w/ 5 targets on a posted yoga mat- noticeable improvement within the course of practice - makes deltoid and bit of biceps tired, 3. parry reposte, 4. disengage reposte

FUN:
Made 3-course meal in 1.5 hrs: 1) beans, lentils, and brown rice w/ cayenne, cinnamon, cumin, lemon juice, garlic; 2) herb-roasted zucchini w/ thyme, parsley, garlic, lemon juice; 3) asparagus, mushroom, and onions w/ balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, and tarragon... this one had a somewhat strange flavor, maybe too much balsamic

Broadmead Ulty> One of the best ulty practices I've had in my life. In a few inches of crunchy snow, which cut up my knees and bloodied my sleeves when I dove for stuff. Rather than sliding, you kind of sunk in. Did 232 and zone. I love cup. Middle wall is cool too. I still need to figure out the 2 of the 232, though. Handled all day and did a decent job. On the warm-up run, as we went in a line follow-the-leader style, we spelled out PUWF in the snow. It was pretty sweet. And VP bequeathed me the goals shirt for playing stuff I don't usually play and running hard all the time :)

Club Fencing> the glove drill. the two better players (both guys) spent lots of time teaching the 2 newbie guys, but ignored the 4 girls most of the time, so we just dueled with gloves instead of weapons for a long time. it probably teaches bad technique, since hitting with a glove involves completely different arm movements.

FAITH: Jesus, I My Cross Have Taken

Henry Francis Lyte, 1793-1847

Jesus, I my cross have taken,
All to leave and follow Thee;
Destitute, despised, forsaken,
Thou from hence my All shalt be.
Perish every fond ambition,
All I've sought or hoped or known;
Yet how rich is my condition!
God and heaven are still my own.

Let the world despise and leave me,
They have left my Savior, too.
Human hearts and looks deceive me;
Thou art not, like them, untrue.
And while Thou shalt smile upon me,
God of wisdom, love, and might,
Foes may hate and friends may shun me;
Show Thy face, and all is bright.

Go, then, earthly fame and treasure!
Come, disaster, scorn, and pain!
In Thy service, pain is pleasure;
With Thy favor, loss is gain.
I have called Thee Abba, Father!
I have stayed my heart on Thee.
Storms may howl, and clouds may gather,
All must work for good to me.

Man may trouble and distress me,
'Twill but drive me to Thy breast;
Life with trials hard may press me,
Heaven will bring me sweeter rest.
Oh, 'tis not in grief to harm me
While Thy love is left to me;
Oh, 'twere not in joy to charm me
Were that joy unmixed with Thee.

Take, my soul, thy full salvation;
Rise o'er sin and fear and care;
Joy to find in every station,
Something still to do or bear.
Think what Spirit dwells within thee,
What a Father's smile is thine,
What a Savior died to win thee;
Child of heaven, shouldst thou repine?

Haste, then, on from grace to glory,
Armed by faith and winged by prayer;
Heaven's eternal day's before thee,
God's own hand shall guide thee there.
Soon shall close the earthly mission,
Swift shall pass thy pilgrim days,
Hope soon change to glad fruition,
Faith to sight, and prayer to praise.

What a song! It's just dripping with sweet truth.
