It's harder in flyball, the challenges aren't the same (or maybe, they're always the same) and there is some requirement on having the other team be up for the race as well. But Kim was in a team in 2003 and every time we went out, for 3 months, we just got such a buzz from every single race. I want that back!

I think we're all guilty of loosing our perspective of what these hobbies are all about - the enjoyment. I found my attitude changed when Pip got into grade 6. The focus came off winning (which I guess it had been in the lower grades) and is now about how well *I* think we did - which, as you know, is a very different kettle of fish. Diesels debut has certainly renewed a spark for me. I dont care if we get e'd, I dont care if we make mistakes - its about making the most out of each run, and not in terms of winning. I daresay all the runs I've been most pleased with we've been E'd or had faults. Now I've found this perspective once again I just hope I can hold on to it - and I hope you can too =D Well done!!
