turning

i felt the winter chill last night
i saw the harvest moon
the grass is getting browner
the flowers are losing their bloom

summer's gold is fading
autumn's browns are getting bolder
warm breezes mutate to cold wind
blowing blustery and strong

seasons changing in endless cycles
life's progression on this road

PATIENCE is a virtue...

....and i want it RIGHT NOW!!!

the worst time of the holiday season for me is when all the gifts are wrapped & under the tree......................i IMPATIENTLY wait for that magic moment when all the chaos ensues. it's not so much WHAT DID I GET, i really don't need to GET anything....it's what i am giving either by name or anonymously......and the happiness and joy on the faces of the receiver(s)

but before you go thinking i'm this super altruistic individual that only cares about giving..............................
let me just BURST THAT BUBBLE for you.

i LOVE love LOVE love surprises! from the simplest little daisey picked in the park to the most extravagantly wrapped gift box with wonders untold hidden within.....................BUT because these are SURPRISES....unexpected & unplanned......there is no time to WAIT and be patient to find out what treasures they behold! INSTANT GRATIFICATION!!!!!!!

which brings me back to my gripe of the day.............when i KNOW there's something HUGE about to happen something monumental.....a life altering change in the universe.................when i know it's coming i have a VERY DIFFICULT TIME being PATIENT and waiting for it to occur in it's due course

LASSO THE MOON & THE STARS & PULL THAT ROPE TIGHT

SOLID #3!!!!!

for the past six years gary & kenny have had to share equal billing in my #1 country singer spotlight.......I LOVE THEM --- their music - their personalities - the things they stand for - the glimpses of their personal lives --- OFTEN TIMES POLAR OPPOSITES & yet BOTH touching me....they are the YIN & the YANG of my country soul!

the #2 position has seen alot more fluctuating.....from JAKE OWEN to LUKE BRYAN to JASON MICHAEL CARROLL....JASON ALDEAN...SUGARLAND....LADY ANTEBELLUM and the list can go on and on............

but ALWAYS in my #3 spot....forever solid and comfortable is the BIG DOG DADDY ..... TOBY KEITH!!!!

i love his music!

i love the way he believes in & supports our great nation & the troops that protect it

i love that he is not afraid of being un-pc and saying exactly what is on his mind

i have gone to see his shows for the past six years and for six long years i have tried to win a MEET & GREET with him..........i had all but given up hope.......

until this morning when i received an email from the fanclub saying I WON! I WON! I WON!!!!!

on 06 August 2010 i will get to meet Mr. Toby Keith at the Shoreline Amphitheater before he takes the stage to WOW us with yet another amazing show!!!!!

idle chatter

i really have nothing important to say right now....and i have even less unimportant to say.....i just feel like inanely chattering about nothing (maybe i would've made a good character on SEINFELD?!)

what about YOU?

what's new with you? where are you today? how are you feeling? what are you doing?

i am WAITING WITH BAITED BREATH to hear from YOU!!!!

hi jen......you are my most dedicated commenter!!!!

JEN thanks for your comments!!! i truly enjoy reading them.....i wish there was a better form of communication back & forth between the writer & the reader in these blogs.......i truly look forward to your (and anyone else that feels inclined to chime in) comments!!!! they help me realize i'm not just floating around out here alone....someone IS listening/reading!!!! :)

but i do feel there is absolutely nothing wrong with ogling a certain HOT MAN on your man's special day....come share 'soap worthy' thoughts with me!!! we'll have a BLAST for sure! :)

and i really think that at this moment in time i am RIGHT WHERE I NEED TO BE ...if only i knew where that was! lol

IMAG0027, originally uploaded by izzyrox.

behind the camera i disappear into a world through the viewfinder a place where i can see things not visible to the naked eye.

behind the camera i melt into the background of everyday life, the focus is elsewhere. i go unseen.

behind the camera i can relax, i can be me.

no more negativities

i cleaned the dust & crumbs from my keyboard tray this morning....
i cleaned the cobwebs from my cloudy mind

i am stepping up to the plate....
i am right where i need to be

i see the sun shining.....
i see distant light at the end of a this long tunnel
