Black and Blue

Tuesday night training session was very interesting. I decided to start my night off with some handling sequences. I was out earlier in the day doing only Contacts and just very basic drills we needed to work on. So..... my friend Sarah came up with a HUM DINGER of a sequence.... as I walked it and thought about how I would handle it I was concerned about how far Tag's stride would be for me to direct him into a threadle I needed to get through.
As I prepared Tag at the start line and started the sequence he went barrelling into the tunnel and over the jump.... and of course I was not in the correct position and he came full force into the back of my legs because he couldn't stop as the grass was wet PLUS he didn't have a chance to stop. He took my legs straight up in the air and I landed right on my back and then smack went my head. Sarah and Dave came running over and Tag didn't know what to do... so I looked at him and said " Are you OK ?" and he came slinkering in with a big smile checking to see if Mom was ok... despite the pain I did have ...I couldn't resist his pearly whites. Sarah and Dave thought I looked like the pin and tag was the bowling ball.
