Thanks for stopping in, you two .

Okay, I just thought I would throw some updated photos in here. At some point I will have Dayna take some more formal "after" shots of me with her digital camera, which I will post in the studio; I am feeling more like it's getting to be "after" finally .

Anyway, here are some shots from my silly webcam for now :





I think I am finally starting to figure out who I am at this point in my life, and, I am having fun being me .

CHEERS !

WHOOHOO, KARLI!
You look fantastic. Love the pixs.
So glad you are feeling good and having fun!

[DogMa]

Wow, Karli, you look fantastic. Glad to see that you checked in, too!

[nickieluv]

Wow. Simply wow. I know there is so much more to you than the way you look, and I also know the outside can't possibly do the inside justice - but the outside is really hot!

WOWZA Karli - you look fantastic - own it girl!!

[Karli]

Thanks, ladies !! I appreciate the positive feedback .

Just an update :

A couple of weekends ago I went to San Francisco to sing in an Opera workshop, where there were coaches from 'The Metropolitan Opera House' there to give us tips. Well, as it turns out, I guess I really impressed them ... along with my own coach from San Francisco -- she was really happy and is wanting to get pretty serious with me.

I will be auditioning for a local Opera this weekend, for which I am going to be trying to get one of the leading roles ... *crosses fingers*

And, there are some plans that I may be studying in Italy for a month next summer -- the Opera capital of the world ... hee hee !! It seems this may actually work out -- unbelievable ! And, if it does, my husband is probably going to be coming with me and riding his bike everyday while I am at the University studying away . That would be my first trip to Europe, and my first trip to almost anywhere abroad besides a couple of little ones into Canada.

Also, for a number of years now, I have been in constant battle with myself over whether or not I am a pianist or a vocalist -- but lately, I have been able to come to some peace with that and I think I am figuring out how to present myself as a musician that does both.

All in all, I am pretty excited and grateful for these things in my life. It's pretty fun to be taking more "risks" and to feel more confident when I do so. And, to the person in me from my past, who was scared to live a "good" life, I will say -- it's worth it (and a bit fun, too !!). Sure does feel nice to not be bogged down with worry over excess stomach and chin and so on !


Cheers !

How truly exciting! Congratulations, Karli, Karl.

[Mike]

Umm, where did the Karli I knew before go? Oh yeah, the rest of her melted away.
You look great. We should have had you come up to Dayna's over the weekend... we were there for the musical and Boatnik.

Had a great time. You are doing great. Congrats.

[Lizabette]

CONGRATULATIONS, KARLI!
On the great things coming your way. You deserve them!

[Tawanda]

Oh Karli I'm so thrilled for you and your happiness that I could bust! I hope all your hard work helps your dreams come true!

[SuzyQ66]
