Just got back in from morning feeding!

7:30 am - Game Plan: To work on our driving game, at Liberty first and using my hands for signals since that is the savvy we excel in. Then I want to switch over to the 12ft line and work on it some more, slowly integrating the use of my Carrot Stick in place of my hands. Also; carrot stretches!

8:00 am - Results: It was sprinkling rain when I first got out there at 7:30-ish. We had just finished with our carrot stretches and began on the driving game when the rain started really coming down. I know we need it but goodness! Couldn't it wait until after I was done playing? Ha ha. **One thing I did notice during the small amount of driving game that we actually did is when I ask her to move backwards with my hands or the carrot stick, she thinks it means " Just go away." And so that's how she responds instead of backing she'll just walk off. Uh oh, looks like I've got some reprogramming to do!**

I fed her and then Mom called me in for breakfast, so I'm stuck indoors for a while.

While I am here, I need to work on getting my checklist up. I've got it halfway done but I need to finish it and post it on that lovely sidebar of mine.

I'll post later and let you know if I ever end up outside again today. :)

Love,

Katie
