training has improved
training has turned a corner. the girls are working out positively. they are getting to grips with the concept that they must not only do the work. they must do the work in a tidy manner. today's session was quite satisfying. they are also applying themselves to technique. things are most definitely looking up.

tuesday
the last week's training before the holidays is interesting. i am ready for a break [health wise]. it'll give me more recovery time. the girls have been working [for them] well. it must be difficult to start again. re learning basics can be tough. they have done and are doing well. i have started on the club website. they seriously need one. i was approached by a nurse when i was in hospital who is looking for a club for her daughter. she had googled gymnastics in chch but not found us [no website].
have spent the week feeling off colour. evidently they [the medicos] need to get my meds balanced. this could take a couple of months! bummer.
even my daily walk is now a task. i have to remain dedicated to improvement. small bits at a time.
training again tomorrow..... will start my day with a slow meander.

friendship
don't ya just spit when you thought someone was/is your friend, and you're wrong? lots of positive feedback, lots of back scratching, platitudes abound. i think i prefer rua. i know she's the whanau kuri [dog], but she is always honest. rua isn't even my kuri. i have been training her as she was unwalkable, wouldn't do as she's told, jumped up, flogged food, nipped those who were [she thought] below her in the pack. now she will walk beside me, sit when told, stay when told, and not steal the cat's food without my permission, no nipping. now i have to figure out how to pass the training skill on to the whanau so she will behave for them. she is becoming a good m8 too. far better than someone, who shall remain nameless. phew [mentally shakes himself off]! got that one off my plate [ish].Labels: friend, m8, platitudes, training
