I have to go through at least two more days of worrying, feeling sick, and not being able to keep food down.

I work full days the next two days, Sunday is our huge event day, and Sunday night, crap hits the fan and I have no idea how I will be after that.

$deity, give me strength.

I feel SO GUILTY like Kastle's going to be disappointed he isn't able to do what he was bred, born, and purchased to do. I KNOW that's dumb and I can't stop feeling SO CONFLICTED. I seriously and losing sleep and stressing out and all sad. I miss my training friends (which I think is adding to my sad)...my best friend that got me into IPO that I used to carpool with is also considering quitting IPO for the same reasons. Super sad.

The other thing is, if I quit IPO we can get some more agility equipment and train more often at home...and Jason would enjoy doing that with me too.

Yeah I am not really a fan of Friday right now. Having a bad day. I don't drink but I feel like I need something right about now. 5 more hours....

My mom keeps looking at me and laughing.

There's nothing like taking a crap and then realizing you are completely out of toilet paper. Sorry for the tmi, but that is my vent for the day.

FG, what about training/trialling for the BH, then taking a break? That way he's ready to go further whenever you are, he'll have something accomplished, which will make you feel a bit better, and you can take a break with a bit less pressure. IPO-VO is also an option if you want a "real" title instead of "just" the BH.

Also, there's tons you can do at home for IPO, so you might even be able to go to your club once or twice a month for a while, saving gas and drive time, but still progressing in protection, albeit slower. I'm kinda stuck doing that with my two in IPO because the last 6 weeks has been crazy schedule and illness wise.
