I HAVE NOTHING TO SAY

Your eyes are the eyes of a WOMAN IN LOVE.......sigh !!

 

by: (me) _ who would be Kat ( Mary) Carlson


Each and every morning,  of late ( for the last 2 to 3 years),  I have been blessed with the company
of "SWEET LOVE" .  I know, I'm bragging,  & why not ?   Many years before that I suffered l-o-n-g  and managed to screw up my "precious" "LIFE".  Some of my nearest & dearest were not given a chance to know & love a mom who was gifted with a "happy" heart.   No, my heart was damaged early on ( way too early) in infancy.   So,  when I was blessed with precious children of my own,  they didn't have the opportunity to know or witness ( experience or see), their own
maternal parent enjoying this "incredible" WORLD.  


The story of their childhood "could" be worse,  however,  because as it turns out, my "wonderful" off springs, DO  have lives that are not damaged so much,  but are enjoying who they are.    That makes "THIS" mom,  "very" thankful.    Now,  it is a fact that they have a "happy", "happy" mom.    It's never too late to hold-out for the very best LIFE,  that has been given to YOU !!!!


This world is so Precious & Beautiful,  but I totally & completely understand how there are those lives that don't get off to a "good start".   To them,  I say,  I'm sorry !   Perhaps "change" will come to your "heart" and "mind" !   Nothing's impossible! 


A song comes to mind....." We're In This World Together " and there's more to it,  maybe you can finish it for me.  As "Hillary Clinton" so aptly wrote in her book _ " It Takes a Village" _,  it does!!   My arms & heart are extended to lives in our "world" who "want & need"....something
that is destined to make them "happy" & "complete" !  It is the "right" of everyone to know
"PEACE" & "LOVE" .


Hey,  know what,  I just now, looked at my "topic" for today.   Guess I did,  after all  have this
message on my HEART !!! 


That's a wrap,  this morning, thanks for "being here"...........

" We're in this world together " gotta make it last forever........

SATISFACTION

TO  ALL YOU "FATHER'S"  .....  everywhere .... in this vast  "WORLD"  we live in ..... "HAPPY DAYS "   .................:)

  

CHEER

G-O-O-D  M-O-R-N-I-N-G...............................:)

Is this for "real" ?  After introspection and a few bouts with solitude,  I have discovered  things.............:)  Ha ha!    Yep,   I took a  "peek"  inside  me yesterday.    It's okay now !!!  Without a doubt,  LIFE is "major" terrific !!


Satisfaction IS _ that quest was the key factor in my "look" beyond the seemingly obvious!  It was
enlightening !  I trust this inquest and it proves to be extremely profitable !  I am in the hands of
"truth",   & I enjoy this "reliability" of keeping things on the up & up  ( balance, .. if-you-will..) 
HONESTY........it's the BEST !!!

How about this little "burg" ?  It's called Meiner's Oaks, CA.  An interesting story surrounding it, but that's for another day ! 

Two days ago,  I walked here to Meiner's Oaks,  ( approximately 4 miles from my house) and I catch the cute trolley,   right here sitting on the bench where all of us "passengers" meet & greet !  But before I  sat down for the trolley to arrive,   I visited the " DONUT HOLE",   bought me a glazed twist.......ate it, ....  mmmmmmmmm !!!!    Incidentally I worked for this same Donut Shop
" 30 years" ago !!! .............:)    It was called  DONUT & 1/2,   in a neighboring town.  I opened at 5:30 in the "MORNING" !  _ I just "LOVE MORNINGS" !! _ The air is so fresh and crisp then,
 the rest of the world is still sleeping,    it's way cool!   FOLKS,   in the "wee hours" sure "love" their coffee & donuts !  The waiting line was incredible !


Back to the "adorable"  trolley,  we all know & love !  Here's a quick shot , below.


 

The sun was rather bright,  I'd say,  but isn't it "CUTE "?   We have two running most of the day....FUN, fun, fun !!!

After purchasing a few staples at the market,   I "hopped back" on a trolley heading toward "home",  where I get off,  and walk down-the-hill to "Paradise"..................:)

Under the trees (right side of the road), I walk just a little further down the road to my "best place on earth" !!!

 

RIGHT  ?

Take a deep breath,  brush yourself off,  and start all over again,  this moment !!

I remembered something my son told me today about the "gorgeous" stars in this incredible
"haven of magnificent natural phenomena" ,  yep,  that would be OJAI VALLEY,  "my home"...:)
so around 12:00 ( midnight),  I stepped out and literally gazed at this wonderment.  I'd love to provide you with a picture of the galaxy's as I viewed them moments ago.   It is a sight-to-behold !
APOD is constantly available for you to get a good look and read up on what's what out there & you can ALWAYS step outdoors yourself,  right ?  I DID go outside at night in Glendale, CA and gaze at the moon & stars.  Don't miss the "beauty & mystery " of it ALL.   I won't say LIFE IS TOO SHORT,  because for "ME",   "LIFE " is a continuum,   the  "LIFE" I know,   will never ever END.  But hey,  so what if it does,  it's STILL the "greatest" !


But while I am still in this fleshly body,  "everywhere",  there is outrageous "grandeur."  That brings to mind the awesome & spectacular GRAND CANYON,   breathtaking rock formations in Arizona, ....well,  of course one could take a lifetime and not touch on all there is to experience in CREATION.    But honestly,   I do know & experience,   so much  "beauty"  & "richness",  right under  THESE  stars & mountains,  terrains  &  orchards,  and  animals  &  really and truly "PEOPLE",  who  LOVE  &  appreciate it ALL !    ( Maybe Chamber of Commerce is looking for a PR person ? ).........................................:)

That would be her ( under the shade tree ) ....:) "yours truly"  &

 

this "HAPPY" camper,  taking it easy

making sure to " take-it-all-in ",   as sure as shootin' !  "THIS IS MY LIFE" .....  Not too shabby",  huh?


If you want to come to see me,  bring a sleeping bag or bed roll and just gaze at the stars all night long!............. !!

WHAT'S YOUR DREAM ??

http://1topnotchkat.blogspot.com

Good morning folks,  it's Thursday,  June 18,  2015 !  Welcome to my world !

by: Kat ( Mary ) Carlson _author/publisher


On mornings like this I just want to open with "song",  bringing this one to you is special to me ( this morning....:) __ "Whether sky's are gray or blue,  any place on earth will do,  just as long as I have have you,  my "happiness",  I "crawled" out of bed,  reluctantly _ ( lifted much to much yesterday....groan,  groan... ).  While I was making my coffee,  this pretty song popped into my head & heart,  it made me "happy".  I take these things to heart,  I cherish what comes "down-the-pipes" and turns the "grey "into "blue" & so on and so on.......:)  Long ago I started writing about how music & song & "literally"  changed my entire LIFE.   It still does and will always be there to make-my-day !!  The "OPENER"  song was  "YOU ARE MY SPECIAL "ANGEL",  ( I like this shirt, by the way  (* see picture above )..........................:)


That fateful night when I heard "You Are My Special Angel" opened doors that helped me see that  "LOVE" is "REAL" to me and "FOR" me.  I was faced that night with a choice,  to allow that special "LOVE" into my LIFE and "heal" a lifelong of "FEAR".  I confessed that I didn't see how that was possible,  because there was" way to much"  hurt & pain !  At that point I looked back into my life and that's all I could see.  "LOVE" asked me,  " you don't want to choose "LOVE", over this hurt & pain.   Well, I did it !   I DID it.   Today,  a few years later,  "I AM IN LOVE"  and that kind of "Pain & Fear" is  G-O-N-E.     "All"   my "LIFE",  ALL in knew was misery & pain.   Oh, gee,  what a blessing and a JOY to wake up and be "HAPPY".  Happy all my days, not just one,  but ALL of them for now,  a few years past, and "FOREVER".  


I know LIFE is specific to each & every person's needs and make-up,  so this is & was my 
DREAM,  I am holding out for YOU  this morning and believe that "you have a Dream"  designed for "you" and that "dream is possible".   "DREAMS DO COME TRUE" !!!

Good morning,  good morning, we danced the whole night through,  good morning,  good morning to "YOU"

IF NOT ME,....THEN WHO ?

That would be  "ME" ??

**** **********

_ A WORD or TWO,   to re-emphasis ,  that  "YOU ARE",  and essentially,  there is......"ONLY YOU",   in the "FINAL ANALYSIS"  ?????     Somewhere along-the-line,   it DID all BEGIN, with you,  RIGHT ? ( hence,  "IF NOT ME,  THEN WHO? ")  _ will see-to-it that _" YOU have" _ what you need,   right here where   "YOU ARE "!!! )    But,  "MAYBE"  "you" have "decided",  that it is simply easier to pass-the-buck,  & "ALLOW"  others to be responsible for _  _"YOUR -only- SELF" ! ?? _ There are answers........please ask the questions ..... for "YOUR-SELF" !

Yesterday,  on my morning walk up-the-hill,  on Rice Rd.,

I stopped by the stables on Meyer again,  ( one of my favorite haunts ),  I got to meet and find out "a little" bit of Vicki's story and how she came to know & purchase her PRECIOUS "RED" of ...now...10 years !

He's a "BEAUTY" and so "BIG",  ( quite a "HUNK"), _ well,   the LOVE between them is really "something else"

Vicki and her beloved,  " RED"........she rescued him and sees to it that he's in- good-hands,   the complete "story" about this "dynamic duo",  is coming up later in a separate blog......I am looking forward to promoting and sharing this "divine" relationship !

After finding out this exciting story and saying "good morning" to my new friends,  I continued to walk ( you know the drill),  getting better & quicker and "still" loving the trek,  ( I see people going to work,  bicycling, ridng their horse,  "rabbit",  sooooo cute,  with white tails,  they actually turn around and look back at me after passing by me.....fuuu-nnn-eee !  The mornings in my world are SO ..."PRECIOUS"....... and then of course,  so,  is the "rest- of- the- day" ! 

A pose in front, surveying my "kingdom " next shot.......

My walk is over ( for today ),  relaxing ( sigh ),......before I get-to-work !!  As I present this blog to you...many hours later, I go back to bed for a little snooze and start all over again,   but it will "NOT" be the same this morning or any other morning......... I "get-to-live" in "PARADISE"................:)  It's " HEAVENLY"...............

Remember to take-a-break for yourself,  often,  throughout the hours,  days,  weeks,  months, PEOPLE !     ( Check out the topic for today,  there's  "ONLY "  _ "YOU"  )

THIS LITTLE PIGGY

http://1topnotchkat.com

This is "IT",  yep,  the "infamous" hill that I "trek "_ "every" day,  usually in the morning between 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.

by: Kat ( Mary ) Carlson _ author/publisher



Often when I walk down Rice Rd.,  I get waylaid,  and take a little detour to the pastures ( corrals) where there are livestock of various kinds.  Nothing there short of the miracles of life.  There are turkeys  ( white ones, yes white...gobble-gobble) goats ( very friendly goats_ pic *), then there are horses, and more horses,  but I discovered this "BIG GUY" recently !  Meet.....

OSCAR,  !!   I had heard about Oscar from friends,  but when I saw him for the first time, I decided,.. "Oh, he's cute"

Next  to Oscar are these two characters.......Millie & Fred,  the wild antics of these two, are soooooo funny, most of the time when I am on Rice ( they live on Meyer), I see them on the roof of there little dwelling so I decide I want to get that picture.  By the time I reach them they jump down from their perch,  (roof top) ,  ( I just knew they would),  so here's the best shots I could get yesterday.............................

I' ve decided that this is "Fred"...

Now,  to me,  the black & white goat is "Millie"

After I visit the stables (once & a while),  I decide to go on up-the-hill , there at the top I decide to either keep going or turn around down the hill,  and meet passers-by,  bikers,  people going to work, waiving as they pass,  ( it's a very friendly place ),  and this "familiar scene".

I "love" this picture !!!  These nice people live on Fairview street at the top of "MY" hill........:)  Marlene & Jack are in back,  the guy in front has no name.........:)

I made it....down-the-hill,  ready for more tree-trimming, raking leaves , laundry,  hanging more stuff  "&" sipping this great coffee !  mmmmmmm !

 .......

Meanwhile,  have a "terrific" day,  my friends !

" SHE ROCKS "

"ESTEE ",  my friend !..........:)

by: Kat ( Mary ) Carlson_ author/publisher



Cute,   quiet,  Esther,   my friend at Leisure Vale,  Glendale, CA.    Esther loves beautiful  colorful things and her room and attire always reflects this fact!   And guess what folks, she SINGS.  One of my favorites is " Smooth Operator" !!



I hope you aren't carrying around,  any more cartons of soda on a walker these days......:)



Take care you...........sweetie !

This is Christa,  I met her on one of my daily walks up-the-hill on Rice Rd.  She keeps her horse in a nearby stable.

 

 

Other passers- by one morning "walking again" up Rice Rd. It's a "friendly"  town/community !

 

"Cheers",  my friend
