Another way you can be involved in the National Specialty (17 days β€” Holy πŸ’©) is with the official BMDCA 2023 Road Trippin’ Playlist β€” it is free on Spotify: Click HERE to go to the list.

Here is Claire working on coat care -- mud baths are her favorite!

Please have a terrific Thursday ❀️🍩

Priority

The book, β€œTime Management for Mortals” makes the point that we never have enough time for all the things we would like to do β€” or think we should do, for that matter.

This is so true.

This is a lesson I learned over and over during the past 20 months of Crisis Saturation. I just did not have the capacity to do everything I wanted to do β€” or should do β€” and so I learned to be intentional about how I spent my Little Soldiers (aka capacity).

It was a process of trial and error, with lots of tears involved β€” but I have gotten pretty darn good at being okay, and it is because I know to prioritize those things that make me okay.

Right now, that includes getting ready for a Specialty I have looked forward to for two years.

Claire

What I did not expect was the way my crises would reflect the goodness of others.

Those who have continued to show up: Thank you.

Those who do not demand instant anything: Thank you.

Sunday!

Ruthie (Sparkler) had a great Scentwork trial!

Congratulations Team Ruthie!

And Margie Moonshadow also had a good day β€” another Novice Rally leg! Well done, Team Margie!!

This is Capella from this morning’s walk…

Sparkle was along as well β€” we are very dedicated to being in good shape for the Specialty.

In addition to Sparkle and Capella’s 2.5 mile walk, Claire did a freight haul (draft) earlier this morning and we are heading over soon for Claire to run a complicated track that has been aging for three hours β€” that will be fun ⭐️

TWENTY DAYS until the Specialty starts β€” and good thing because I am having WAY too much fun online shopping for tie-dye stuff. Check out one of my many fun finds…

Peace, Love, and Happy Sunday, Friends!
