Yesterday:
1. liberty improv to Christmas carols with Try--stick to me, 360s etc. (Actually, Try has decided she invented 360s and that they are the answer to every question--ooops.)
2. when that got boring we went into the ring for more space and more energy--circling etc.
3. then riding: warmup, 2 point trot and no stirrups--strongest on my part in several months--2.5 laps each way. Then played with transitions for mental awareness, impulsion, intensity and relaxation: sitting trot with light contact, posting trot, canter. Finished with some canter laps for relaxation.
4. Then watched BA playing with trailer loading and demoed for her horse--sending Try into trailer on line from 10' or so away. I would like a chance to do this at liberty as a touch it game but not in the parking lot.
Today: My whole body is so sore from all those laps. YIKES.
