    Hi!!!!!~!

    How are you? I'm really great! (No really.... I am!) It looks beautiful outside.. the snow that came down in buckets on Sunday is already mostly gone! (Can I be honest that I'm really happy about that! ok I know it's not a surprise to most of you!) I am SO excited for the spring!!! Flowers!! That feeling in the air that the earth is waking up!! I LOVE that feeling!!!

    Ok.. onto 3 Things 2 Things

    3 Things that make me happy:
    1. I got an email yesterday for a Focus Group that I would receive $150 bucks! Yea! Extra money!!!
    2. My girl Danielle emailed me that my pregancy card was well received at her friends Baby Shower last weekend.. she gave me a wonderful compliment and said I'm in tune with my soul...that's why she loves me.... That made me Feel SOOO Good... down into my soul... Thanks Honey!!!
    3. Called Ikea yesterday.. the sofa I want is available in Red like I want.. (I'm getting rid of all my sofas and going to buy a sofa at Ikea (I know... it's Ikea quality... but It's only until Kevin and I move in together next yearish or so) and i'm psyched! I'm excited to change my environment with new furniture/rugs/etc...

    2 things I'm looking forward to today:
    1. Exercising tonite with Bianca
    2. Laying in another floor of furniture... so I can cross one more thing off my list of things to do!

    2 long term things I'm looking forward to:
    1. Moving back into my former apartment.. i've been meditating on it.. how i'm going to lay it out.. Waking up in my new space with Kevin there.. I think he's really going to like it!
    2. Saturday .. for no specific reason.. just that it'll be Saturday and We can do something fun!

    1 Person/s I am going to appreciate:
    The Garbagemen... I am SO grateful that they come right to my door and take my trash away.. I am always meditating when they come by.. and I watch them.. I want to put a sign on the garbage can that says "THANK YOU!" (I might do it.. and then watch their reactions) I'm thankful that they are there to do that for me!

    Ok.. I'm off to create another beautiful day!!! Oh.. want to share an interesting experience I had yesterday... I got an email with an article about how "The Secret" is just a marketing scam to get people to spend money/etc... wow... it affected me... it affected me because while yes.. the creator of the movie is making wonderful money (duh... creating prosperity and financial freedom) there is always going to be someone who wants to rip it down... I didn't even read the article and I got the gist... I walked around a bit in a fog.. Why can't we be happy for other peoples success'?? Why do we have to condemn them as having selfish motives?? I mean I guess this is the human condition.. competition... But if it HELPS people... then can't we be happy that the people who brought this tool to them is creating wealth and financial success?) then I laid in bed last nite.. and pictured myself with the people that feel this way (or are quick to judge it as nonsense without even watching/reading/PRACTICING IT) and giving them a big hug... and It made me feel better... eh.. just sharing for what it's worth...

    Have a GREAT day!!!
    Love you!

    Hiety Ho my lovelies!!!

    How are you? Whew.. i'm GREAT! I'm really grateful that I feel MUCH better than I did yesterday! Whew! Funny.... I KNOW that I created whatever I was feeling... and just like the Law of Attraction says.. my day had these little intense tests.. a few of them I was able to see as tests.. and a few of them had me in a temporary stressed place.. but at the end of the day.. I was able to look back and like ALWAYS (tell me you can relate to this) The stress that I thought I was going to have.. ended up to be nothing at all.. and the only stress was worrying about being stressed out! HA!

    ok.. onto 3 Things 2 Things (It makes me happy to do this everyday!)

    3 Things that make me happy:
    1. My wonderful work friend Bianca.. asked me if I had my gym clothes with me at work.. and if I wanted to go to the gym in the building.. I thought "hmm.. this might be a great way of working off whatever residual negative thinking from my day" so YES! I walked a mile and then ran a smidge (ok.. one day at a time but I WILL get to a mile again!) I did feel better and I'm sure that is what helped in me feeling better too!
    2. I just LOVE it when I can sit down with dinner and watch my Tivo'd shows from Sunday and Monday nites! Back to Back. and can forward thru the commercials! It's the best way to watch TV!! (And the episodes are so good.. that I get all excited watching them~!)
    3. Yesterday.... I found out that my company is moving to PTO (Personal Time Off) instead of separating Vacation and Sick Days.. which is AWESOME because I didn't think I was going to have enough Vacation time to get paid throughout the week in Iowa. So now I will!!! AND... with my paystub.. I also got a commission report (I make commission on doing design.. a first for me!) and I should be receiving a $400 + check sometime soon for some of the past jobs I've completed! WOO HOO!! I'm telling you.. The Secret works! I keep saying to myself.. INSTEAD of freaking out about money.. say "Money comes easily and frequently" and I mean it..!! It's awesome.. AND.. I got my insurance check back from the Dentist too yesterday! $83 bucks!

    2 things I'm looking forward to today:
    1. I really do like my new station/cubicle at work.. It is so cool! Ok.. pictures tomorrow!
    2. Tonite Kevin, Naomi and I are going to dinner tonite! Yea!

    2 long term things I'm looking forward to:

    High/Low 2.20.07

    Hey there everyone!

    How are you? I'm good...

    Well.. I'm ok... Strangely.. I've recently had a bit of insomnia lately.. waking up thinking about everything and even feeling anxiety about different aspects of where I'm at.. and definitely where I'm going.. and this feeling does not fit where i am trying to remain positive.. based on the Law of Attraction...

    Ok.. I'll admit.. it's girl time (sorry guys) so I'm thinking that it's the emotions of hormones.. or something.. but it's strange... I know I create my reality based on my feelings.. I know I'm doing good.. in a good place... then WHY am I feeling this? It is a RARITY that I have insomnia. but that pull in my solar plexus (tummy area) with not so fun feelings... NO THANK YOU! (Auntie/Anyone.. some words of wisdom???I really believe in what I've been talking about.. then WHY am I in this weird place???and HOW do I get out of it???)

    Hmmm... oh well.. I need to focus on what I want.. not what I don't... so here goes
    3 Things 2 Things

    3 Things that make me happy:
    1. Sitting on the couch, Monday nites.. watching Prison Break and 24 at Kevins place.. we're always in a good mood when we're sitting there.. it's our happy place.. (Although.. I am trying to limit my intake of violence and anger from the TV.. so Watching those shows is becoming less and less interesting to me.. but I focus on being with Kevin..)
    2. I surprised Kevin yesterday with a Card with a 10 dollar gift card to 7-11 (He likes the coffee) ..part of a postponed Valentines day stuff.. it made me feel really good to surprise him (Funny thing though.. he didn't see the card in his windshield.. so It wasn't so much of a surprise.! HA!!)
    3. I know that I am exactly where I'm supposed to be.. in comparison to where I've been in the past.. i'm in a REALLY good place.. work wise.. relationship wise.. financially wise.. and I'm REALLY GRATEFUL FOR THAT!!!

    2 Things I'm looking forward to today:
    1. Coming home and making dinner.. and watching TV.. Resting.. I have an ultra busy week this week!!!
    2. Going out to dinner with Kevin and Naomi on Wednesday nite!! (I'm psyched that 2 of my closest people are spending time together!!!)

    2 Long term things I'm looking forward to:
    1. March 31st.. 12:45.. I FINALLY got an appointment at the Aveda School in Chinatown to get my hair colored and highlighted!!! (Both services for $82 bucks.. and it's AVEDA! But it's a challenge to get an appointment!!!) My roots are getting long.. (so is my hair too) I think I may have to go get my hair colored (and trimmed) somewhere else in the interim..
    2. Honestly... getting to wherever my next residence is.. Part of my discomfort.. are ALL the thoughts about moving.. packing.. what to throw away.. how to downsize.. who's going to help me move?? all these thoughts... I look forward to (and am grateful for) the day when i am settled in my next phase..

    1 person I am going to appreciate:
    Naomi... Seriously... I have learned SO much about myself thru her.. wow.. I am so grateful that she has taught me to be comfortable discussing my feelings.... even the uncomfortable ones.. She's taught me that even the topics that might not be considered "fun" are SUCH a great learning experience.. into our own strength... and that our feelings.. WHATEVER THEY ARE.. are valid. I am definitely a better person for having known her!!!

    Ok.. Anyway.. I'm off.. into another day... Ok.. I feel better that i wrote this out.. BIG BREATH!! I really do love my life.. who I am.. love all those people who have made me who I am today.. (uh.. that's you) I am the richest woman in the world!!!!
    Love you all!

    2.

    2 Long Term things I'm looking forward to:

I'm off to meet Kevins Dad and Grandmother, 1/2 Brother and Sister and other fam.. and.. to check out Iowa.. (He wants us to move there someday - I say eh.. we'll see what this great universe has in store for this kerilyn girl)
    2. Have had an interesting experience with what my living situation will be come the next 2 months or so.. (Ok. ready for this? Last year.. when Naomi and I decided that i would move out by May.. I kept saying "i'll just move back to East Glendale' (my old apartment complex - 1 BR) and then months later, I decided I wanted a 2BR.. but I put my name on the list for a 2nd floor/End unit on East Glendale.. as a back up... Well.. On Friday.. I get a call from the Lady that does rentals for East Glendale.. Come to find out.. that my neighbor when I lived on East Glendale (Nicole) moved into my apartment after I moved out.. and Nicole is moving out (she bought a place in Del Ray! LUCKY WOMAN!) and my old apartment is going to be available come Mid-April??? ISN'T THAT A BIT... INCREDIBLE!!!!! I still want a 2BR but if I move back to my old apartment.. I can put $600/month in my savings acct.. and save for my future with Kevin.. So I'm still trying to figure out what i should do? Keep Looking?? I'm definitely going to go thru with renting the 1BR.. but I'm not sure If I should keep looking for What I NOW want..

    Interesting huh? Yea.. I thought so.... Kevin said it's a no brainer..and for those of you who knew me.. I LOVED My little apartment on East Glendale!!! But.. I'm used to more space here at the house... etc.. so.. we'll see!!!

    1 person I am going to Appreciate:
    Hmmm... EVERYONE out there that .. even though you might not know what's going to happen next... Are EXCITED that the next step could be AMAZING!!!! And do not look on the fact that you do not know.. to be a bad thing... but a WONDERFUL THING!!!

    "You can drive from NY to California in the Dark.. with only your headlights on.. seeing 200 ft in front of you.. You do not have to see the whole route.. Life is like that, life unfolds in front of us..If we can just relax knowing the next 200 feet will unfold.." -Jack Canfield (summarized from "The Secret") WOO HOO!!!

    Ok.. gotta boogy to get ready for work, make my lunch! So... i'll catch you later..
    Much love to you all!!!

    Morning Butterflies!!!

    How are you this Thursday morning?? I am doing really great!!! Whew!!! Tuesday nite we got a bit of snow and freezing rain and so yesterday morning.. the roads were a bit slick but my great boyfriend Kevin came to my rescue and picked me up and took me into work!! He handled the roads like a Pro!!! I had to go into the office for a meeting.. I was there only for an hour and half.. and one of the other designers took me home.. thankfully again.. Kevin came and picked me up around 4:30 and we went out to dinner at yummy Outback... (We decided to postpone Valentines Day "stuff" until the weather gets better and... I feel better (The head cold is getting better THANKFULLY!!!)

    onto 3 Things 2 Things !!!! (WOO HOO!!!!!)

    3 Things that make me happy:
    1. A toasted corn muffin with butter and a good cup of coffee (YUM YUM!!! Eating right now!)
    2. SO happy to go to The Secret Testimonials ... and to read them ALL!!! It makes me feel giddy with happiness and gratefulness to read how other people feel this fire too!!!
    3. My sparkley friend Roxanne... She too now has the fire...feels driven to use the Law of Attraction and I LOVE that she calls me to talk about how we can keep each other positive!! HOW AWESOME IS THAT??!!!!!

    2 Things that I look forward to today:
    1. Reading thru my new magazines (Real Simple, Body and Soul, and New Oprah)
    2. Watching 'Medium' and 'Top Design' that I Tivo'd yesterday!

    2 Long term things I am looking forward to:

    2. Going to Iowa to meet Kevins family... we're probably going in May! I am excited to meet his family that means so much to him!!!

    1 person I am going to appreciate:
    My wonderful friend Danielle!!! Wow.. I got a Valentines Day card from Danielle yesterday.. she is such a wonderful giving person.. definitely a light in this world... Who wants to help other people.. and I KNOW she will.. She has taught me a lot about unconditional love.. and I am very grateful that she is a wonderful part of who I am!!! (Danielle honey.. Thank you for my wonderful Card!! I LOVE YOU!!!YOU'RE A KEEPER!!! Call me when you get a moment so we can talk about your wonderful intention!!!)

    K ya'll.. I am feeling better and better!!! Gosh.. Life is SO wonderful!!! It's so true.. that that which we focus on.. that makes us feel fear.. is what actually comes into our lives. (Think about it.. those things that keep you up at nite.. or makes you feel panic.. actually come into your life somehow) To some degree you have to rebel agains EVERYTHING YOU WERE TAUGHT ABOUT WHAT YOU CAN HAVE IN YOUR LIFE and retrain yourself to focus ONLY on what you want!!! To use your 3 year old imagination (that's inside of you.. that you tap into when you watch a movie.. or play with children.. or play with your doggie or kitty cat) and VISUALIZE what you want.. ACTUALLY IS HAPPENING!!!! I betcha.. that if you do this... and do this WITHOUT DOUBT.. that amazing magical things will come into your life!!!!

    Ok.. I'm off to create a wonderful day!! I wish you a blessed Day!!!
    All my love!!!

    Morning Lovebugs!!!

    What's up? It's Monday... and you know where I am?? HOME!!!! In my PAJAMAS!!! Yep.. I'm working from home this week.. Because they're re-doing our offices.. And in a strange moment of serendipity.. I find my body has temporarily come down with a small little cold... I guess it's good then that i'm home.. and not having to go out in the cold. It will be gone in a jiffy I am sure! I do not want to focus on it.. but that i'm doing GREAT!

    This weekend was really a lay low weekend.. Kevin and I didn't do much really.. I was telling him.. we're usually always on the go.. and so when we don't do much.. we both get restless.. but it's ok.. he came over yesterday.. I made this cinnamon raison apple strada thing.. it was good (but i want to try to make it better next time) and we watched our Tivo'd shows from last week (Prison Break/24) all in all a relaxing weekend!

    ok.. onto 3 Things 2 Things

    3 things that make me happy:
    1. I downloaded an Audiobook of "The Law of Attraction" by Jerry and Esther Hicks from ITunes yesterday and put it on my IPOD so I can listen to it at work! I can burn it to a CD and listen in my car too!
    2. Saturday nite.. I got this hunkerin to put my "so much myself" card on EBAY
    So far I got one "friendly" bid... (Thanks Scott) who knows..we'll see.. what do I REALLY have to lose? NOTHING! THEN... I got the itch to try another site.. that i am totally inspired by.. so I also listed the same card under this awesome website where I have My Own Shop!!
    3. Warm LONG Pants and really warm socks and slippers!
    (Extra) 4. This weekend, I bought 6 new markers (colors that i regularly use on my cards) and I am starting to feel the itch to sit down and restock my inventory!)

    2 things I am looking forward to today:
    1. Feeling better and Better and Better!!!! AND.. Watching Oprah if I wish!
    2. I am looking at an apartment tonite at this place I really wanted to move to.. it's only a 1BR but we'll see.. The universe knows what I want and I know i'll get it!

    2 long term things I'm looking forward to today:
    1. Warmer Weather for SURE!!!
    2. I feel something really good is coming to me!! I am SO excited to see what it is!!!

    1 Person I am going to appreciate:
    Hmmm.. People who have chosen a life of simplicity in order to search their own spirituality and souls.. and the difference they make.. For some reason.. today I want to appreciate the Dali Lama.. and the Swami at the Yoga place where I took Meditation class for 3 years.. Simplicity.. and yet.. when I was around him i could FEEL that he understood what it was about.. I want to be more like that!

    Hi There Peeps!

    FRIDAY!!! WOO HOO!!! Big Breath in... I'm SO psyched to relax and hang out this weekend.. This has been a busy week for This Kerilyn Girl.. Last nite I had a Focus Group.. it was held in this Downtown DC Architecture/Design Firm in my favorite part of DC. It was so cool to be among others in the same industry.. The Focus group was about The Environment and recycling... Good thoughts.... AND .. I walked away with $100 bucks! (Oh.. and there was this cute boy there.. and I couldn't help but to think that his semi-flirting with me (smiling at me and looking at me when he spoke) it had to do with how he was reacting to me feeling REALLY GOOD!! - No worries.. I walked away.. he said "Good Nite Kerilyn" but it still felt good to get that kinda energy thrown on me.. made me feel alive!)

    Ok.. so.. I have to boogy to work.. so I'm making this ultra short for today...

    Did you see/Tape/Tivo/DVR Oprah? It was good! I was shouting WOO HOO! as I watched it.. There was this awesome example of how we need to be conscious of our thoughts...

    What thoughts we are sending out is like the cosmic restaurant and your telling the universal waitress what you want to order. Picture the waitress coming to your table with her/his little pad.. and saying "Are you ready to order?" Are you ordering "I can't afford that.. or I don't have money for that.. or I'll never get love... " If you see the chef (The UNIVERSE!) putting that order on a plate.. and slinging it out hitting that little bell "PICK IT UP!" What if.. you say to your friend sitting across the table from you.. "Remember last time this food sucked?" and the waitress is always there.. listening.. that's what your going to get again.. SUCKY FOOD.

    Yea.. now I ask you.. WHAT ARE YOU ORDERING?

    Have a GREAT weekend!!!
    Love you all!

    Morning Easter Bunnies!!!

    Making this short....

    It snowed last nite.. bout an inch but it's so cold that it was good snow.. good flicking off the car snow.. and it's cold!

    Just want to say hi.. and today I need to use what I've been telling you all about... to focus on what I DO have... and am grateful for.. and not focus in any way on what I don't want...

    So... this is what I'm grateful for.. i thought I'd just share.

    1. I am grateful to enjoy living in the house for almost 3 years.. I feel really comfy there.. very myself.. and am grateful for having the experience of living there..
    2. I am grateful that I have a job.. in a beautiful office.. and I feel welcomed and appreciated. I feel like I'm doing a good job.. and when I don't understand something or need help, I feel proud that I can ask for it. I am grateful for my little work area too... it's a reflection of me.
    3. I am grateful that all my bills are taken care of.. that I am able to do what I want to do, and that I have plenty of money.
    4. I'm grateful for my morning oatmeal, and morning coffee.. and my kitty cat and my morning shower.. and that I enjoy meditating everyday.
    5. I am so grateful for my friends and family... my support.. those other than myself who think of me and send me loving thoughts. They are a part of who I am and that makes me feel SO grateful.
    6. I am grateful that I do love who I am.. I love that I am one who is working on myself.. and loves others.... that I have succeeded throughout the years..
    7. I am so grateful that I have my hearing so I can listen to AWESOME music.. man.. music is soo important to me.. it fills my soul...
    8. Im grateful that I have been blessed with what I believe spiritually.. I believe in Energy, Reincarnation and Karma... in Spirit.. That we do not cease to exist when we drop the body.. MY FAITH has brought me more hope in the past 6 years.. I am SO GRATEFUL!!!
    9. I am grateful for my beautiful Red Car.. I am so proud of myself that I have successfully been the owner of it for over a year!!!
    10. I am grateful that I do not regret one thing in my life.. that every experience.. even the ones that yielded a not so positive outcome.. has taught me something.. and led me to look deeper into myself.. my life and my interactions with my surroundings.

    Ok.. there are many more things I'm grateful for.. but that was enough to make me feel better.. thank you for letting me share with you what I'm grateful for.. Feel free to do the same and send it to me... AHH.. seriously.. I feel better.. So thank you...

    Love you all,
    Kerilyn

    Hi there beautiful People!!!

    What's shakin? It's Tuesday!! How are you? I'm GREAT!!! I gotta make this a quick one.. cause I gotta go get oatmeal this morning before I go to work and my boss is in town so I really want to get there on time..

    Aww.. Pez is sitting right here.. next to my keyboard.. looking at me.. :) She is a cutie pie.

    Ok..3 Things 2 Things

    3 Things that make me happy:
    1. NO CAVITIES!!! I like my dentist, Dr. Almo.. I love that I have to go to DC.. to go to see him.. makes me feel like a city girl.
    2. Getting an AWESOME massage Friday nite.. AHHH.. I could tell her doing her thing.. has made my body move easier. I am grateful!
    3. Surprising Kevin with tickets to a Washington Wizards (Basketball) game last nite. It made me happy to find tickets.. and after half time.. we moved from extreme nosebleeds which we had.. to an area where we could see more!

    2 Things I'm looking forward to today:
    1. Starting today, I will not let what is at work that I do not want/does not make me feel good.. and start to FOCUS on what I DO want to happen.
    2. Along same line.. I came up with something that I want to talk to Kevin about!

    2 Long term things I'm looking forward to:
    1. NEXT WEEK - I am working from home.. I am so excited.. I don't even know how I'm going to feel.. but hopefully the fact that I do not have to get up early to get ready for work , persay.. I think will feel AWESOME!!!
    2. I know this isn't too long term... but I am SO excited that my sparkley girl Roxanne is coming over tomorrow to watch The Secret/ I am ALSO Glad that I have Oprah Taped on Thursday to see the show about The Secret too!!!!

    1 person I am going to appreciate:
    Hmm.... I am going to appreciate all the people who LIVE ... being EXCITED about life... being nice to other people.. understanding that we ALL are little children inside.. who just wants to be accepted.. wants to be touched.. and loved, we're all crying inside.. and the way it comes out.. is lies.. and negativity.. and following 'the Tribe.. I appreciate ALL the people who dont' follow the tribe.. and I'll tell you... more and more.. everyday.. I do NOT want to follow 'The Tribe'... I defy the Tribe.. telling me I can't.. and i'm not worthy .. and 'em.. I"m not sure that will work.." I say "I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU SAY.. I AM GOING TO DO IT!!!" Avoiding Negative People.. that's where I'm at.. which might mean a drastic change in my life but damn it.. I want POSITIVITY AROUND ME!!!!!

    Ok.. so.. there's my soap box!!!! Have a beautiful Day.
    Love you all!!!
    Kerilyn

    PS: Matthew/Kyra and Michelle... I want to talk to you.. Call me.

    A note.. from the Universe.. to you:

     " If you could live this life over, your name here, would you still want there to be the same challenges?
