Happy Monday

Another weekend has come and gone and sadly I spent it being sick.  Now I didn't stay in bed and sleep to get better,  I hate doing that, I always feel like the sickness drags on and on that way.

Instead I started up my second Zumba class on Saturday mornings 11am at my apartment. :)   $5.
It was a good class and I am excited to watch it start to grow and expand!  I love Zumba and this opportunity I have to be an instructor and have a dance party with my friends and family. While getting one step closer to a healthier body! :)

I am hoping to be able to get one more Zumba class going,  that way I have three classes that can grow and my career can grow as well.  One day I hope to be able to become a Zumba Jammer then a ZES.  I will move up in the world of Zumba and maybe one day I can be Zumba-famous and go on the Zumba Cruise!!!  That would be awesome! But not only that, but make it even more possible to open my own dance studio and be able to teach all different styles of dance there so that people are able to learn and move in many different ways!


Today I have mostly been looking up different trick to teach my puppy Ari :)  I want her to be impressive with what she knows.  I am thinking about going and buying a clicker after work and start to see if that will help train her.  From what I read it is an easy way to train.  But there are a list of 52 tricks that I found that I would love for her to be able to do on command! :)  I love her so much and I know how smart she is,  I know that she can learn any trick that I throw at her! :)
I thought I was a patient person and I still think I am, but I have realized that I am more patient with other people than I am with myself.  When Ari does something bad, mostly peeing in the wrong spot, I feel frustrated with myself and how I can't teach her to go to the right spot.  Which makes it hard on me.  Another thing she has troubles on, yes I know she is a puppy and they naturally bite, BUT! She still needs to learn now that it isn't okay to bite, because I don't want her to be biting us when she is older and stronger.  Ari biting is the hardest thing for me and I feel like I break down a lot more with not being able to teach her to stop biting.
Sad to say, I tried bopping her on the nose, but I don't like it and I don't think it is working at all.  I am stopping it and I will NEVER use it again on a puppy.  I will find a different way to teach them, I just have to figure out how her brain works and what stops her from biting. :P

I love my life and the ability I have to be challenged and grow!!!! :)
