" WHEN  AN OLD IMPRESSIBLE  SMILE SUCH AS YOURS, MEETS AND OLD IMPLACABLE HEART SUCH AS MINE,    Don't say NO, because I insist,  SOMETHING'S GOTTA GIVE,  SOMETHING'S GOTTA GIVE  ,....SOMETHING'S GOTTA GIVE "___


Just another ,  you know, one of those good ole' songs.  Music, music,  it really is the "BEST".
Music helps me with every mood,  I have and need,  most all of the time.  Seriously,  it can and will "HEAL" your body & mind. 


Don't miss out .......find a radio, or CD player or Android, or something that will afford you a variety of "music".   Try to capture the "tunes & "sounds" of  actual therapeutic "listening".. Well,  therapeutic is a little too generic.  No,  go for it, people.  Music, all the way.  Our world today,  consumes lots of chemicals to try and make the pain go away.  And one of them happens to be "FOOD".   Now,   I "know"   that doesn't surprise you.    But I can't point that out,  "enough"
Then of course, another is the "really" obvious, "DRUGS" like prescription drugs & well, the 
"horrible" other kind of drug use/abuse.!!!!


Right now,  right here,  this morning,  I am "heralding" & "focusing" on "types of alternative lifestyles,"  that do-not-cost "much money",  and    _ "THAT WORK" !   " ALL I WANT IS LOVING YOU  &   MUSIC,  MUSIC,  MUSIC"  remember that song,  probably not most of you.
It goes on, "CLOSER,  MY DEAR COME CLOSER, the finest part of any melody is when you're dancing close to me", ........... yep,  that's the way it goes. !

THIS "IS" the HOME of "loveliness" , our Ojai, CA

 

Just step right outside my front door to this "sight"

Even this one , off my patio.....:)

The " emus " & "alpacas" are always looking through the "fence".....:)

I've enjoyed my visit with you this morning, ........"everyone"

CHEMISTRY

http://iblong2Me.blogspot.com


* In the interest of our "bodies" & and our "souls",  consider this ......
 

"CHEMISTRY"

by: Kat (Mary) Carlson _ author/publisher


Greetings folks !  "Top of the morning to you,  &  you  &  you " !!


Having been an experimenter in my more advanced years and "ASKING" questions,  lots & lots of them,   I "really" "dug" deep.   I was " insatiable "!   Being "satisfied" DID NOT happen,  just like that !  Some folks told me,  oh, I wouldn't ever ask questions like that,  it's too "deep" !


Today,  I can tell you,  I  AM  s-o-o-o-o "GLAD"  I did  ..ask & ask !   WHO did I ask ?  My answer is this,  "the Universe",  or then I would question this profound voice of "LOVE".   I knew,  I just  "KNEW" !!   But "knowing" also helped me ask more questions.   AUTHORITY or not,  I wanted answers !  And I didn't  stop ... until I was "SATISFIED".  


"SATISFACTION",   ( a precious commodity,  in our "crazy" world.)   You cannot buy it,  can you ?   In fact people still think they can find it in a bottle,  prescription drugs,   food,   work,  "sex" ( although it has a great deal of "significance" , in the production of our bodies "chemistry"_ "ENDORPHINS" produce pleasure,  good for our "hypothalmus" ( in our brains-both pleasure & pain center).     Which brings me to the topic today.


All along the PATH to my own "well-being or healing" ,  I was still curious as to what exactly I was receiving into my LIFE.   Our "LIFELINE" ,  our "BLOOD" ,   is majorly affected by "chemistry",  or our "emotions".   Our  HEART  first ,  "emotions"  prompted by our attitudes,  then "PHYSICALITY"  finally comes into PLAY.    Unfortunately,   I HAD to go way back to my childhood,   but,   you know,  "HEALING" in your "SPIRITS "   first,  meant for me _ not having to hash through "stuff" or "gory details".    The entire process,   was completed by learning to "TRUST".   When that attitude was cemented and yes,   it does become cemented.  ( It did for me)!


You have heard "nothing's"  etched in stone.    Guess what,  "L-O-V-E "  _ "IS" _  etched in something "M-O-R-E "( greater than) stone ...... a   "SUBSTANCE"   ( FAITH,& LOVE,  a substance )  that is impenetrable !   Therefore,   I say to you, this morning,  a  "w-a-y"  to "health" is and always will be through the POWER & SUBSTANCE called "LOVE".   Here I will interject this experience for me,   I experienced   "LOVE" in a "red" light of  ENERGY",  which I "KNEW",  immediately, _ was "L-O-V-E"  itself.    It was and is "personal",    personal sometimes is hard to accept,   but "oh"   "you want to",   "you really do",   _"TRUST ME" !!!    When you "really", "really"  think about it,   "EVERYTHING"  is personal,    one way or another" , _  either you are getting "better" or you are   _ "NOT".    That's "PERSONAL", _ isn't it ??    You & I tend to go with what's "familiar",  but  often , "familiar" is something that you should change.   Familiar can and does come in the form of "SATISFACTION" ...........

                             This is personal ........have an "awesome" day,     friends !!!!!

HAVE YOUR TICKETS READY

http://iblong2Me.blogspot.com

I'm back .......from Glendale, CA.  The party was a time of "getting together and talking about "old times"

 

 

are
by: Kat (Mary) Carlson _ author/publisher


I moved back to my  beautiful,  sweet,  adorable, "happy" home here in Ojai in May 2015.  Seems like a lot longer.  My time here has mushroomed and so many fabulous things have happened that makes this place for me, "the happiest place on earth".  

Visiting my old "haunt" in Glendale yesterday didn't bring back the wonderful memories I use to have. That being said,  I am "glad" to be back here in my own home this morning. I remind myself, that I can and will visit those fond memories whenever I choose in my "head".

Being back with "dear" friends,  DID help me "draw-a-line" in the sand regarding "relationships",   meaning,  time marches on, my life has changed.  I learned who to LOVE, but more like,  who I am going to invest "time" and "emotions" in.   Some old & some new "delightful",  "dependable" "hearts" have entered/re-entered my "world" and I am deeply "grateful" for them. ........:)  Just a fact that they have reached a level of life time connections
& quality.

Well, this IS my blog and often that's what people who write blogs do, write down what might be 
visiting our brains, especially this early in the morning. I got home late yesterday to "home sweet home"  very "HAPPY" to be living here in this "fantastic" place.

Trains are such an "awesome" experience.  Taking the train has been comfortable, expedient, and a way to meet people from all walks of life.  Conductors temperaments "vary" but I can't say enough about how pleasant and helpful most of them are.  So, "kudos", to them, & "hats off to them all,  male "&" female.

I close with this "happy" anticipatory"  thought,   I'm looking forward to pushing open my sliding glass door on this "gorgeous" land, where I enjoy my "freedom", and "EXPLORE" all the vistas I have at my opportunity.  

I recommend the "train", it sometimes takes you where you didn't expect to go, but perhaps need to anyway!

   

I have a place called "HOME" how GREAT is that?

 

 

MEANWHILE,  back-at-the RANCH,  "Welcome,  friends !!!!

 

Have a "wonderful",  "exciting" ,  "SUNDAY",  July 12, 2015 !

TO BE _ OR NOT _ TO BE _" ORGANIZED"

http://iblong2Me.blogspot.com

A TOPIC _ for this Friday,  July 10, 2015  "ORGANIZED"

 

by: Kat Carlson _ authorized/publisher


To begin,  I am organized,  yes, I have always been.   BUT,  what compelled me to write about this topic,  has way more to do with my "inner-LIFE".  I "FIRMLY" believe,  when one has taken-to-task,  the practices of how one administers , manages,  all one's "HEALTH",  mental & definitely, "PHYSICAL" ( such as what I eat , too ),   "every facet"  of one's "entire" SELF !  Doing this daily, creates "healthy organs",  see where I am going with this.?     What I do ("practice") inside & outside,   just quite  simply keeps those tissues (organs) "HEALTHY".  See,  the consequences ARE  "everything" "ORGAN-IZED"   or also this concept   "ORDER".    There is "ORDER" in our "UNIVERSE" , "THANKFULLY" !!!!    Teaching one's "SELF" to have an actual mental picture of ALL  the  ORGANS inside the BODY,    I am able to "SEE" (visualize) my own.   Pretty darn good thing too!  _ " NO SURPRISES & NO BLAMING SOMETHING , OR ,  SOMEONE else."  Having "control" of "ME" is a "VERY SWEET" experience.  ( That "MAY"even be why,  I DON'T have "DIABETES" )...... ya' know ?  No,  really go ahead and give this lots of consideration !!!!

Keep this "TRUTH" in front of you,  know this, " IF NOT ME,  then who ?

 

 OUR ORGANS,  like "IDAHO potatoes"  have "eyes" ....  well,......:),   when you do have eyes -to -see"inside " you,  things change for the better,  right ? 

LIFE IS GOOD,  and even better when you are good ( considerate) to it

I'll take a few days off,   friends,  "GOING TO GLENDALE,  CA  on AM TRAK,  "
I have a Birthday Celebration Party Combo to "happily" attend,  with GOOD FRIENDS,  Saturday & Sunday,  July 11 & 12 


  _" ALL ABOARD" !!  _  Wanta'  go with  me ?  ......:)

Now, "truth" be told, ........I am really just a scare-dy Kat more times than I admit !

by: Kat Carlson  _author/publisher


Yep,  often I "go-out-on-a-limb" get rather bold,  speak out (and other things) and boom,  there I am, right smack dab in the middle of a "crisis".  Of course one of my own making,  who else is there ?  I kind of like this picture,  I'm pretty comfortable taking pictures and posting them,  mostly of others,  lately !!   Like these gorgeous horses .......

Red,  my friend Vicki"s horse is her charge alone now for 10 years.  He was being put down, and she "fell" for him ! Brought him home for a few months or maybe more,  but DID NOT ever expect this "duo" to last that long.

Here is the "two of them",  ever faithful Vicki, right by his side,  feeding & cleaning & sometimes riding,  every single day of the year,  twice a day ( at least) !  Hot weather or not, & of course "cold" weather as well.  Hooray for my gal pal !!!!   I'm not done telling this story......

Vicki also cleans several other stables,  this is who I named "Darthvadar"

                            

Here in the exact same corral, is Darth's pal,  Luke Skywalker..........:)

  That name,  because of the "light" stripe

Darthvadar,  because he is well,  "DARK"


* "R2D2" may just be in my next blog.  Oh yes, I have him,  folks !


* Savor the "moments" you "have"  during this visit to our planet,  _ Earth !!

PARTS UNKNOWN

http://iblong2Me.blogspot.com

Days ago, I started another blog on WordPress "2katskorner.wordpress.com" dedicated to helping out a little with ERGONOMICS

by : yours truly,  Kat Carlson _ author/publisher


Only a few blogs designed toward fixing a toilet that keeps on running,  and one little blog on 
"how to" soothe your heart _  the sound of my clock goes "tick -tock" ,  "tick-tock", "tick tock"
over and over again.  But that very night I WAS able to sleep with that little gadget.  What I am going to say in this blog is about many,  many, things that CAN be fixed,  made, created with little time and money and effortlessly.  I am a sort of " JACKIE" of all trades.............:)  Maybe even a
JACKELYN of all trades.  I use hammers, screwdrivers, tree trimmers, wrenches, ladders,  paint, paint brushes, wheel barrows,  power screwdrivers, drills, etc.  ERGONOMICS,  there are classes in Universities that teach this timely study.  Today's world is in dire need of short-cuts, and money saving tips,  along with the ability to keep up and "have  a life" too. 

Although I tackle a few odd jobs around the house,  I really........

   

can,.....look,  feel,  talk,  even "SING" like a "GIRL"...........of 75 yrs.

( I have always forgotten to mention,  I AM a Massage Therapist too!...although I am retired ! )

MAN OR WOMAN ....& TRUE FREEDOM

http;//iblong2Me.com

This is the pic I selected for "this" topic....

 

by: Kat (Mary) Carlson _ author/publisher


A topic of this nature "may" be "rejected",  once I expound on it.  But,  here goes !  I am somewhat of a dare-devil !  Have taken many routes that are unpopular,  and have accomplished a "great" deal.  So, this is it. 


The "whole" of mankind & the man vs. woman delima from the garden of Eden, (let's say), the
"real" issues are derived from sexuality.  Which carries over in the "financial" world,  based on 
gender.  Gender has to do with our body parts and their use.  I'm sorry,  I know, it's kind of off-the-wall sounding,  maybe it won't (penetrate),  oh my, that's "THE" word,   of course.  Anyway, this entire issue,  "dominance" vs "dominance",  has gotten into our psyche's and prevented you & me from "utter freedom"  and/or "wholeness".   Wholeness is offered to us in the name of "LOVE",  and that is where the confusion lies.  My only experience with "LOVE" is the same as the rest of us,  human love.  God's "LOVE",  although it is "loving and romantic,  it is that and "then some !!!!    I DO NOT  believe GOD is a man or a woman.   There,  that's what I mean.   That may be what causes  the confusion,   when you are ready to come to completion in your ready to "Live & Move & Have Your Being "  as was stated by GOD as what we have & are in Jesus Christ.    Understand,    that "Freedom"  is meant for now,    in this lifetime.  "My God shall supply "ALL" MY needs  .......  "ALL" ,   or  "SOME" ?    I AM A BOTTOM LINE KIND OF GIRL !       "Is the job finished or NOT ?"    I hope that you "DO"  have everything you need and "DO" have your "COMPLETE BEING".......oh, no,  it's pink,   that will never do......:)   It's a guy thing !

"HAVE A WONDERFUL NIGHT "
