Today I feel like a very old man... My joints are aching, my eyes are blurry and I just want to crawl under a blanket in my rocking chair and go to sleep.
Amazing to think that four years ago I could do 100 push ups and not break a sweat and nowadays picking up a sword makes me want to have a lie down. Damn treacherous body, use it while you can young whippersnappers!
So from that rant I guess you can tell my training is taking it out of me :) Basically I've just picked up my swords and worked through some slow work drills and I'm completely stuffed! I swear it was never this difficult in the olden days (I'm sounding like a grizzled 19th century prospector here, cursing out the young 'uns and complaining about my aches and pains!).
But I shall continue! For if nothing else, I am stubborn, and I am relying on that bullheadedness to get me through this. Wish me luck!
Bechtold (the temporarily geriatric)
LUCK!!!
