whEn thE lIghts gO dIm prAy UntO HIM...
Well... I am updating this post after a couple of months...
First and foremost, school is officially over in 28 days-- I am totally counting down too!! I have been in school way too long NOT to be excited about graduating. No- I don't know what I am doing afterwords except for getting some of my old hobbies back. I loveD to read... Lately, it has just been about text books and random educational articles...but I am ready to move back to the reading I have longed for for years now. I have more than 20 books I have in my bookshelf that have never been opened...well I am sure they have been opened, but never read. I LOVE getting books for Christmas, birthdays, and just when I hear about a new book...I like to go and buy them. So I am going to get back to my roots and start reading the enjoyable things in life again... this also means reading the "GOOD" books on a regular...ok..DAILY basis again.
Another thing I am going to get back into my life is scrap booking. It is seriously a JOKE that I have yet to finish my mission scrapbook. It is PATHETIC considering my mom did ALL of it and all I had to do was insert the freakin pictures. It has been three years (well on the 14th) and I only have maybe five pages done. It is super lame.
The last hobby I am getting back is exercising- I know, I know... you wouldn't think I would like to do something such as exercising... and I get how you would perceive that...considering the OBVIOUS!! But in all actuality, I really do like to get on the treadmill and run... I really do like to go lift weight...I really do like those cheesy exercising videos... I have just been SO dog gone busy that life has flown me and kicked me all over the place... Heather and I already have gym memberships and we are doing really good at going. The thing we LOVE the MOST about our gym is their is a media center. YEP- we can watch a movie while exercising...who wouldn't want to run/ walk on a treadmill when you could watch a movie...HELLO- they knew how to get our butt's into that gym...
...........................
This last month has been a strange one for me. My dear sweet grandpa passed away on Father's Day... it was such a great tribute to him to pass on the greatest day for Fathers. It has been super hard dealing with his loss. My grandma has dementia and doesn't remember her husband of 61 years has passed away. It is sad!! To be honest, I don't like to go and visit her anymore because it is hard to have to keep reminder her that my grandpa has passed. You would think it would get a little easier to say someone has passed away... but for me, it doesn't.
The sickness of my grandpa has brought my siblings and cousin, Carson, closer together. We are getting together once a month to play Rummy and to have root beer floats. It is something we have been doing for years at reunions, but Stevon decided we need to be doing it more. We need to create memories for ourselves with our siblings.

A thought from yesterday...as I was talking to Jed...
A lot of people say "Heavenly Father wont give us anything we cannot handle..." (or similar versions... but I am sure you get the idea). I disagree with this statement... of course He would give us things we CANT handle... this is how we get closer to Him and our Savior...this is part of the Atonement... this is part of growing in FAITH... this is part of the plan- the refiners fire... Hard things are all throughout life and they will NOT be going away. When things get hard- we need to think instead of "Heavenly Father wont give us anything we cannot handle..." we need to say "Heavenly Father wont give us anything we cannot handle ALONE..." I think adding that one word...will bring to us more of an awareness of the Atonement and the Plan of Salvation. Life is hard...and sometimes we cannot handle the things thrown our way...but this is when we need to get our knees bruised up because we are constantly praying and seeking guidance and help for our Father in Heaven. He loves us so much and doesn't want our lives to be a constant train wreck... He wants to help us...He doesn't want us to deal with our trials alone.

When the Lights go Dim...pray unto HIM!!!
