Friday night class

Well, because of the wet wheather and the lower temps. class tonight was canceled due to the possiblity of black ice. I was a little disappointed, but I understand. I was hope to do some "look at that" game with Zedd at class.
I recieved an e mail from Barb about her starting classed in Jan. on Wed. I could take a class with either Barb or Rosanne. If I choose to sign up for her classes I would have to quit Flexi. The thing with Flexi is that it is cheep, but it's just run throughs, and there is alot of work to stay a member of the club. Instrustion is and isn't the best. I just have such mixed feelings about the whole thing.My biggest fear is that I will not get enough instruction at Barbs. I need concrete homework. Small drills to work on at home.
how about talking to Sharon and emailing, Rosanne and or Sharon about my concerns ect......

OFF TO AKC INVENTATIONALS

I am off today for California to Long Beach for the akc inventaionals. My dog didn't get invited, but Penny was and she invited me to go along. I'm looking forward to going. I'm not looking forward to the plane ride. My legs always get restless when I sit for a long time. I'll be back on Monday. I'll miss my husband and bunzella and zeddicus. Both dogs will be in good hands. Mike takes very good care of them. All of them will have lots of room in the bed while I'm gone.
I've been running some things through my head lately. I would like to sit down and come up with a training plan for zedd and keep a journal of our sessions. Ok journal may be too much. I'm struggling with balance. I feel very scattered with training zedd, since the winter months are slow with agility shows, I'd like to get organized with training. I do think it's time to retire bunzella. As much as I hate to do it she is really starting to slow down. She doesn't want to climb or jump as much as she use to. She has a vet check up in Jan. so I plan on having her examined very well.
I'm hoping that during some down time the next couple of days I can come up with some plan. When I get back from CA I do have a private with Leslie McDevitt and I'm hoping that will help me with organizing a training plan.
I think I had too much coffee because my mind feels like it's jumping from one thought to the next. Gee, I'm such a terrier at heart!!!!!!!
Well, I'm off to get on the treadmil, finish packing and take a shower. Oh and grab a committ so I don't go buy a pack of cigs!!!
