Life changes

So, I said I has a lot of events planned and would have a lot to blog about.  But because of the virus, most of that is no longer true.

My half-marathon was cancelled while we were still in Vegas.  There is a silver lining to that which I will get to later.

Since we've been home local schools are cancelled, restaurants closed and gatherings are banned.  Both my NW1 trials and the local 3 day trial I was volunteering for have been cancelled.  Lure coursing in march was cancelled.  UKC NW and Lure coursing for April are tentatively on the books.  I'm not sending any more entry fees in for May or later until this blows over.  Basically the only place I have to go is work.  Today will involve a trip to the post office and dropping off a B-day present at a friends house.

I can't remember the last time I've had this many free weekends, or weekdays for that matter.  So I'll be working on a list of things to do around the house! So far my list includes deep cleaning and organizing of the house, bathing and grooming the dogs, lots of dog training to really be ready for when trialing resumes, riding my horse and keeping up with MOKAN stuff.

I should also include running/training but that brings me back to my silver lining story. After the El Paso half I had a pretty sore foot.  It got better with time and rest but after several weeks I still couldn't run much more than 4 miles.  My PT friends concluded that I have a lunated cuboid bone and so now I'm currently waiting for someone to pop it back in but in all the chaos and combined with spring break at the university where the PT people are I haven't gotten that done.  So I have been mainly doing cross training but deciding if I should even go to the gym.

And now, here are some pics because that's all I have for now.

Legend got to go to the feed store yesterday.  She was happy to go on an outing.  I think she thought it was the biggest blank room ever but had a good time.
