Playing catch-up

The departure of my grandkids & family was more emotional than I anticipated. Maybe it was the car accident and my new appreciation for my life handed back to me, but I felt the need to tell my daughter how beautiful she was and how much I loved her. This started up some water works on her end which of course sent me into a tail spin. Saying good-bye to my 2 month old grandson - who also had some serious health issues - was no easier. Most of Sunday I couldn't talk about the visit to anyone, and even had to ask Hubby to stay away from me for awhile as I dealt with the house being quiet once again. Rather than sit around and cry, I went into a hyper mode and trained dogs and did laundry and cleaned. This lasted until late into the night. Monday I got up at 5:00 a.m. and proclaimed myself completely healthy from the car accident and ran 2 miles on the treadmill, trained Moto, did more laundry before going to work. Came home still in hyper mode and cleaned some more and trained a little more.
Today....OW. Can't move. Need to walk before I can run again. Visited chiropractor who scolded me. Crap I HATE taking things slow!
Moto training log: we practiced just some basics. Since he's had such a long break I capitalized on starting over on sits. Used Laurie's method of stand....down...sit and made sure his front paws didn't move as I want him to pull his rear into a sit. This will help the "sheltie bonk" problem I had. We did a little attention heeling and he seems to understand remaining in position which thrilled me. I will need someone to train with (Diane if you're reading this call me!) as I'm not sure if he's crabbing. With Moto, I need to walk faster due to his size. He's beginning to lift his front feet up during heeling and it's looking nice. He still does not understand where front is. Used the Platt method of some front drills. I hope doing this daily he'll get it.
Today we'll incorporate a bit of agility with obedience. Shiloh will be thrilled to do the agility obstacles and jumps. Moto will need to remember his 2off/2on. We'll jump a bit and then throw the dumbbell retrieve into the mix. He has retrieved over a jump so depending on how the retrieve goes, we may throw that in. Also work on go-outs and continue the momentum of correct sits and work on fronts.
Then, a jacuzzi bath. I hurt so much I can feel my insides hurting.
