So You Didn't Make It

It's got to happen, sometime it will, when it's your first attempt I wonder if it's the toughest. Been there done that, but there was other circumstances beyond control that effected the outcome. It made the cards turn over once again, because you can't just wish it away, you still want it with a serious passion. Passion for the cause will inevitably take you across the line. When your head is spinning, you must know your broken heart will mend, you will get back up, cause when you just get back up you will win. There is always hope and there is another round for you. What was you downfall is your key to pressing on till you do make it. What does that mean? When you passed thru that time and space, you saw,felt, experienced what it's like. You must return, facing the distance with a renewed faith and determination that makes even the devil run and flee.Nothing can look into your eyes and face up to the persistence and destiny that emulates from your inner core. This time you will succeed, failure is not in the crystal. Everyone likes a warm and fuzzy ending, but your so rough and jagged even Boodini runs for cover. So get up again, win, push on straight ahead, and go find that Dog!

Have your Death in Chocolate

There are many obstacles that one may throw on ones path to freedom. When it is all said and done it is a wonder why the mistakes are made in the first place. Some for a few, are serious to everything they hold dear and in turn effect the lives of many others. Such is the nature of not having courage. Who knows where you can cash in on that? But if you have fortitude you can climb the Wasatch, you can run for days, you have  a sense of never ending freedom and happiness that would channel all your efforts as you positively push thru to the other side. This side is the attitude of success, venture and getting the job well done. Why would you waste everything on a few moments by making a choice that will change it all? When you ask and look for the right answer you are already on your way to what you never dreamed possible.

The Aniversary

So after 43 posts and the start up of something never planned on "All about Boodini " exists.
It is always  someone that initiates the gesture or words that makes a mark, or causes a progression to
make something happen. As the first post began ... it was all about Jeff, he instigated my first 100M run,he influenced this posting business, and it is no less an undertaking, one that is free to do as what will, and there is no goal or intention. It has had an effect on marking time, as this past blog year has passed. Pictures, words written down, making sense, making no sense at all. Boodini is no less the better or worse, and I still have all ten fingers. Maybe refraining from the hat thing would be advisable. We'll see.

Only one hour?...You better Get Out! And find that Dog!

Not enough time has been afforded to the plan, that is not out of the norm. Because there is a definite reason. None of which make things roll any differently from what the intention or effort has been. If you don't get out and find that dog, you simply can't expect this dog to place or show. Now let it be a lesson this next time around that the things that will be, can and will become found, as what should be. Because you will get out there, regardless of the energy spent, you will most certainly get out there and find that Dog!

Run Like the Wind....Number4

Tough rainy, cold weather. Jeff and Mark were the only Volunteers, they made the Big Diff, and Boodini, hell, what can get done that we can't do? The runners did come, like a new day risin, really believe we were livin the dream, cost quite a bit and the payoffs all went to the Dogs! When you ain't got nothin ya ain't got nothin to lose. Times like these you learn to give and give again. Thanks guys, thanks runners, I know what your thinkin...thanks for comin round!

Time and Time Again

Know what your thinking, seem to be going down, can feel the sinking, but then we came around. You learn to live again,a new day rising, a new sky that hangs stars upon tonight. Everyone you've loved before flashed before your eyes, and nothing mattered any more, looked up to the sky. Wanted something better, wanted something new,wanted something beautiful, wished for something true.Been looking for a reason, till your head is spinning, this is our beginning coming to and end, and feeling like it's over, there's another round for you. Looking to the sky to save us, looking for a sign of life, looking cause we're tired of trying, make the way back home again when we learn to fly. Might be done nursing patience, run tell all the angels, this could take all night, cause everything's alright. Learn to live again, give and give again, to love again, time and time again.

Running Crazy

The 22nd of Oct. began the Donkey Dash, so we ran and won a first. Oct. 29th, Cactus Rose 50M proved to be the most awesome in the Hills of Bandera. On to the Run for the Rovers with a 4th overall Dog, prize money and 33# of Ultra Dog food, a 2nd place for me. Nov. 19th knocked off the Wild Hare 50K, at least
it was a better effort on that same course two years ago. Now what? It's just getting good, and the future is
so bright, we'll have to wear shades.
