Thoughts

I can not believe the last time I blogged was for Easter!! This year has been so crazy and it still is crazy. Devan has just been laid off for the third time THIS year alone. I feel really bad for him because the only thing he wants to do is work. We have struggled in Vernal. It is not exactly what we had pictured in our minds when we moved in February. It is in the middle of NO WHERE. A friend just told me today that Vernal is the largest town in the USA without a railroad running through it.
At the moment it is easier for me to list all the stresses in our lives, rather then the blessings. Although, we have so many blessings. We have moved into an amazing area. I have some of the most wonderful visiting teachers. They are teaching me how to truly serve the sisters and their families who I visit teach. I have some wonderful people who are willing to be my friend despite my weaknesses. There have been times I have felt very lonely. I believe that comes from not having family close by. It is interesting to me that when I feel like I can no longer continue with my situation, Heavenly Father blesses me with the things I am in need of. I am still struggling with a lot of things, but several people of reached out this week when we have been in need, I feel like I can continue on for a little longer. I need to remember, we all need to remember, that this life is not about the destination, it is all about the journey. That is very difficult for me to remember. I am the type of person that likes to get in the car and not got out until we have reached our final destination. I am still learning, life is about the stops one makes during the trip.

We have done some fun things the last couple of months. So my next couple of posts will talk about those things.
