Happy Thought for May 30, 2007
Apparently gorgeous men bearing canolli are not that hard to find. Who Knew?
Laughter
Today I am grateful for:
Having a good lunch meeting at Panera
Running into Amy, Steph and Kaline and really enjoying talking to them. It got me to thinking about why I don't ever call friends and invite them to coffee. It also got me to thinking about how no one ever calls me to go to coffee hint, hint
Getting a laugh out of my nosey phone call to Shanan
Hot weather and the feeling that summer is here
Progress on finishing the pool house
Feeling happy and content today
Looking forward to yoga at the center starting next Tuesday.
Looking forward to my trip home.
Fresh fruit
Hot coffee with fresh cream
Novels I can lose myself in
You, my sunshine
Hugs
Kari

Happy Thought for May 28, 2007
You can go anywhere and do anything you want, both with your body and in your mind, because if you don't like it there you can just come back. All roads lead both ways.
Re-connection
Today I am grateful for:
My committment to get back on track with daily gratitude lists and happy thoughts.
Your lists that I always read. They way they allow me to feel connected to each of you. The way they make me smile and sometimes even laugh out loud. Discovering how much we all have in common.
Watching Sam and his friend Mac play Guitar Hero like they are rock stars. I love the little walk down memory lane with the music from the 70's. Music can take me back in time instantly.
This wonderful idea I had while painting yesterday that Sam and I could spend one month each year in a different foreign city. We could pick a country and spend the school year learning basic language, culture, geography etc..., then top it all off with spending the month of May actually there. At first I thought "that would be cool but it's not possible" then I thought "why not". I feel very inspired by watching each of you take steps out of the box to live life to the fullest and I want to do the same. We have the fabulous freedom of not being tied to traditional school schedules.
Taylor calling so I can talk to Eli on the phone. So silly but I really miss that little lazy butterball.
A wonderful anniversary celebration with Scott on Saturday. Our anniversary is the 27th. Finding out that my anniversary is so close to Amy's. Tiger game, dinner at the Alley Grill and the casino, really my pefect evening.
Winninng 2000 nickels on one roll on the BIG ASS Wheel of Fortune game in the Greektown Casino. As you can tell I am a small time gambler. Being wise enough to stop playing when I got even. Several hours of playing and coming home with the same amount of money we went with.
The amethyst necklace and chocolates Scott gave me.
Scott's excitement about going to a Piston's playoff game last week. He is still buzzing about it. Thanks Adam.
Changing the time on my Seattle tickets so I can attend a party my sister Kim is having on the 9th. The chance to hang out with her for an evening. The fact that she lives an hour and a half closer to the ferry to the San Juans. If I go to her house from the airport my trip to see MJT the next day will be much shorter.
The beautiful picture of Amy's partial brood of amazingly beautiful children.
Blue Skies and sunshine today.
Almost always being the first one up in the morning
Coffee, coffee, coffee
Sushi and Leo for teaching me to love it.
You, you, you my friend and muse, yes, I mean you.
Hugs and kisses
Kari

Friends
This morning I am grateful:
Going with Sam to see Mary Poppins at the renovated old theater downtown. My keen awareness that it will be a very short time before he is no longer willing to do these things. He will be 12 at the end of the summer and things will change.
Plans to attend a baseball game and dinner with Leo.
All of the dedicated people who are participating in the Extreme Team course in order to learn, grow, and be of service. Barb for her endless dedication to keeping the center alive.
Shanan working to reschedule WG and agreeing to teach belly dancing at the center. Knowing that the 5 people we need to make the class go will be there.
Sharon picking up the phone to call me at the exact same time I am calling her.
An e-mail from someone wanting to re-join the Saturday group. Her baby is grown enough to allow more freedom.
Reading MJT's posts about her trip and being excited for her.
Sarah's trip and knowing that she is in Europe right now.
Getting another camping invitation for early fall. Really getting into this camping thing. This trip will include canoeing woohoo
Knowing I will see Sherry on Saturday at Caroline's party and that she will make it through this transition time using all the skills she has gained.
Friends that Scott has known since high school, Kevin and Cheryl, coming from Cleveland to go to the Tigers vs Indians game. We are going despite the rain. It is the Indians after all. Lots of options for if the game gets rained out. Passes to the Tiger Den Lounge to watch from inside if necessary.
Getting up first in the mornings and enjoying the quiet and the sounds of nature while having my coffee. The little bunny that lives in our flower bed and always makes a dash for it while I water the plants.
My good friend Amy that I am finding I have many things in common with. Our witty senses of humor and love of Bob M. to just name a couple.
All of you who have blessed my life in a million ways.

Excitement
This morning I am grateful for:
Having a back-up computer to use while mine is getting repaired. Even though I don't have my address book or contacts list to send out the link for my new posts it seems that some people are still reading them.
Having the great idea to get yoga classes going at the CLE and manifesting full classes all summer.
Being excited for Michelle as she heads off on her adventure in Washington. Plans to visit her while I am there.
Listening to Cheri Huber podcasts on my ipod while I am painting, walls not canvas.
Knowing we will find a solution to the bird poo problem in our beautiful backyard. Anyone have any ideas? I enjoy nature a lot more when it is not coming out the butt of a bird dive bombing our pool. geez
My great kids- Taylor got a promotion at her internship after only a couple of weeks. This was a great boost for her and must mean that she impressed them.
My advice to her was: Everything is your job, be willing to do what ever it takes to get the job done well. Maybe she listened, hmmmmm
My friend Melissa who slept all night on the roof of the elementary school where she works. This was payment for the kids reaching their reading goals. Now there is some "doing whatever it takes"
Sam who at 11 years old watches, and understands, The Colbert Report. He says that he would like to go to Yale but will not be a C student like George Bush. I find this hilarious. Now if I could just get him to play outside without complaining.
Lisa and Jason moving to a bigger, two bedroom apartment. They are so excited and I am excited for them.
The Tiger game last Friday. We thought it was going to be cold but it was perfect. Watching the fireworks after the game then walking around the city listening to live music coming from different night clubs instead of getting stuck in the traffic gridlock. A perfect evening.
Thinking about Shanan's date to the opera when we walked by the Detroit Opera House. The posters looked pretty sexy.
My deep love and respect for all of you. My gratitude for knowing I have each and every one of you in my life.
In the moment, spontaneous laughter

Recovery
Today I am grateful for:
Feeling mostly recovered from my camping injuries and back on track. I was down for the count all day Monday. Understanding clients when I had to reschedule. Manifesting a cancel from my last client for the day who was the only phone number I didn't have at home. I am only slightly off beat today.
Wonderful Womyn's Camp and all of the opportunities it presented: Growth, connection, stepping out of old limits, laughter, play, serious talk, tears, being of service (coffee service mostly), new friends, re-connection with old friends, tolerance, self-talk, empathy, great food, the smell of campfire, hot shit moments, henna tatoos, tarot readings.....
That MJT, my new name for Michelle, not sure why, is envisioning 90 women next year. woo hoo Everyone reading this that did not attend this year, PLEASE mark your calendar for next year May 8 - 11.
Touching love notes in my journal. Sharon Ri. (Mom MJT) saying that she will remember me for sure. I hope it is for good things.
That Amy loves me enough to research concussion and make sure I will recover fully. Thanks Girl. Don't worry about that contact sport requirement. :-)
Sharon for her kick-ass driving skills with the trailer that allowed us to bring as much stuff as we wanted and not get stuck down the wrong road.
My own process of de-briefing from the week-end. Seeing where I fall into self doubt and judgement. Recognizing my voice of self hate that wants to get in there and take away my good feelings about the experience and replace them with negative ones. Seeing how it wants to take advantage of my physical illness and use it as a tool. My ability to observe this and not let it happen. Really seeing how deep and ingrained my feelings of unlovability and self doubt are.
All that is stated above that serves to remind me how far in my own recovery I have come.
Hearing from Leo via his list
Sarah leaving for Europe VERY soon. You are going to have such a wonderful time.
My beautiful, welcoming home to return to
All of you- The amazing people the universe has brought to me by answering my manifesting requests.
Hugs and Kisses
Kari

Clarity
This morning I am grateful for:
Waking up early to a quiet house
Being able to sit on my screen porch and listen to the birds and the wind while I write this.
Technology
A beautiful blue sky
The absolute abundance in my life, the knowing that I have all that I need plus plenty to give away
Teachers that are there exactly when I am ready to learn the lessons
Friends that love unconditionally, listen and offer wise feedback
Moments of clarity and my own ability to be one of those friends
Breath and it's ability to bring me back to this moment, free of judgement, control and habit thinking
Having Levi here. The peace of mind in knowing that he is safe and well. His wonderful gentle nature. How helpful he is. My surprise at his willingness to help with what ever needs to be done. The way he automatically takes whatever I am carrying out of my hands to carry it for me. Letting him have all the time he needs to find his direction and make the decisions about what he will do next.
Scott for being so generous and undemanding. He is the opposite of controlling. His challenging of my refusal to get a car for Taylor. His asking me to focus on her success and accomplishments rather than the idea that she needs to prove herself over and over. My coming to understand that my fear of having children who are "spoiled and entitled" is conditioned thinking from my Dad. Working to get my head around the idea that feeling like hot shit who should have everything wonderful in life without suffering to get it, is not such a bad thing. Being aware of my impulse to tell you all that "Taylor is not like that" haha old habits die hard. Seeing that the question "Did you work hard enough to get that?" has been an unconcious mantra for me.
Sam's laughter and full immersion in where ever he is in any given moment.
The color green- new leaves, beautiful eyes, split pea soup....
The i's- ipods, ideas, ice cream...
Dreams while awake and asleep
Travel plans like Indiana, Seattle, Idaho, New York, China and fantasies like Belize, Costa Rica, Morocco, Turkey, India, Greece....
You, you, you

Peace of Mind
This morning I am grateful for:
Working in the yard most of the day yesterday and seeing it start to come together.
Having the house totally to myself last night. I love alone time.
Waking up this morning feeling very happy, relaxed and good.
My most favorite TV show, The Office, that I can never watch when it is on but thanks to
DVR can save and watch over and over.
Sharon's silly word game yesterday. If you didn't see it ask her to send it to you because it is hilarious. I danced with a gangster because I was drunk. Amy sang to your mother because she was high and she is just like that. We have a virtual substance abuse problem.
The yummy mynu for Womyn's Camp and Melissa's sense of humor. Isn't yummy a wonderful word. It is a fact that I will be eating better while camping than I eat at home. I need a cook. What do you say Melissa, do you want the job?
Countdown to Camp and the anticipation that is building. Thank you Michelle, Shanan and Kim for your inspired idea and follow through.
Putting together the ice breaker, first night, activity and the closing ceremony. I LOVE that I got that assignment.
Books by Cheri Huber and the idea that Adler, Zen and Sub-personalities could be combined into something so simple a kid can understand it.
Sunshine
Motorcycle rides
Trips to Paris
Wordless connections
Friendship
All of you, awe inspiring, goosebump causing, mouth open, head thrown back, laughing outloud type of people.
Hugs
Kari

Healing
Today I am grateful for:
Waking up feeling really good
6am yoga followed by an hour long walk
Reading that Leo will be posting again soon
Receiving my shopping list for camping which means it is getting close. It also means that Miss Mel is doing a kick ass job of being the food lady.
Finding where I can buy the Melitta manual coffee maker so I don't have to go a single day without great coffee. You just boil the water and pour it onto the grounds
Seeing Edename on the list mmmmm
Loving my job- I get paid to play
Greg Liber and his sense of humor, honesty and gentle ways
Home schooling made possible through information given to me by my good friend Amy :-)
Love and peace
You darling you

Happy Thought for 5/01/07
There is no such thing as right or wrong. Someone just made it all up and passed it on.
Understanding
Today I am grateful for:
The gift of each new morning and the possibiities it brings
Reading the lists that each of you write and getting inspiration and chuckles from them
Receiving my shipment of Cheri Huber books from Amazon. The fact that they were free with gift certificates earned from other purchases.
The simplicity of her writing and being able to use it this morning to get centered and clear on something that was keeping me from "the now"
The wonderful truth that there is only right now
The wonderful truth that you can only get from others what you give to yourself
The wonderful truth that there is nothing wrong with anyone and no one needs to be fixed
Feeling on the cusp and being encouraged rather than overwhelmed by it.
Jim's healing
The fresh honey, strawberries, raspberries, cherries, apricots, rhubarb, vegies of all kinds and flowers that were all in abundance at my grandpa Roy's house when I was a kid. The piles of sawdust to play in the area where he cut the wood to heat his home. The smell of a house heated with wood. The extended family piling into cars to go out to the woods hunting huckleberries and wild mushrooms. The joys of growing up "country".
Re-connecting with the wonders of my childhood.
Living in a town that still has a milkman. Having wonderful organic milk and cream delivered to my house in a truck painted to look like a cow.
Coffee with cream
Hot baths
Sushi
Sunshine
All of you
hugs
Kari
