Cypress: Butthead. Check.
I was feeling a little out of sorts for today's lesson due to a (too) fun night before and Catherine wasn't 100% either, so we took it very easy and slow, and that was exactly what I needed.
Spent the entire lesson just working on fundamentals of communicating with Cypress and getting him to do what was asked. For some reason it was night and day with Wednesday's lesson, where I felt I was trying to muscle him everywhere and having him hardly listen. I was able to get him to do more or less what I wanted with very little signals.
Then turned him around to go the other direction and it was like starting over.
Overall it went great though, I feel a lot better about it. I have another lesson scheduled for Monday afternoon and I think having three lessons so quickly after each other will help me get back up to speed again. I'm seriously thinking about finding someone to take a lesson or two from while I'm in Colorado just so I don't lose the momentum
