will she won't she

tonight i decided to work slowly and calmly on trying to get her to put herself in a position where i was on her right side.

we eventually got to a point where she was nearly there, and she was letting me put her hand up to the right sideof her face and stroke it. once she found herself going right and really startled herself ....

i think if i keep that up, as opposed to my previous modus operandi, i might get somewhere (albeit it'll take a while) and there'll hopefully be less for richard maxwell to work on when we get that sorted...

i was actually quite pleased with myself as well.... i'd made a conscious decision to stay calm and did.

i might get a new visitor as well ... someone from ultimatedressage wanted to know stuff, so i said come read the blog.... hope i don't regret that!!!!
