Life's Journey

Life can take you by surprise! Throw you by leaps of faith with a few trials and smiles in between. The last four months I’ve struggled with some of life’s surprises. Dealing with severe depression, and anxiety.
I took a leap of faith and moved in September of 2009. I moved to be closer to mom, and to have more beneficial activities closer me. I left a lot of Great friends from my previous town to gain more activity. Things started great when I moved. in fact the leap was awesome! I was doing AWESOME Fun things with mom and going on GREAT Adventures with mom, but all of the sudden Depression just kicked me in the butt and I literally slept for four months. I got a great companion named Tuff who is a short legged pure bred Jack Russell Terrier between Tuff and my mom, dad and family I had the help that I needed with my depression. I spent a couple weeks in hospital last month for depression, and between hospital visits was able to slowly regain enjoyment to life. In fact I am still trying to gain enjoyment.
I am now living with a couple of roommates who are helping me extremely while my foot heals. They do a lot for me and I am grateful for it.
Now a brief look on the spiritual side of things. Even though lately I’ve had my struggles and dealt with everything I have, Why I used to think that the Lord loved me and because of that, wouldn’t let anything happen to me. But I was wrong. He still loves me and has given me trials in my life because he loves me. I believe that going through trials and tribulations with the help of the Lord’s tender mercy is the only way that we can overcome our weaknesses and move on. I’m grateful for the chance that I have to change my life daily, and accept the gospel in my life and how it has helped me overcome my struggle and give me the comfort I need to carry on.
I’m sorry I haven’t blogged in awhile but I promise I’ll try and make more of an effort to blog more. Thanks for reading. Stay tuned for more.

IT CAN BE DONE!!! On our trip to Billings we got into a cow tipping conversation and one of the youth and I decided that we were going to go cow tipping. Kim had warned us that it was intirely impossible to achieve, In fact he bet us $100.00 if we could do it. So with me and my mind I am determined. So I have been studying up on my cow tipping and this is HILARIOUS with what I found. So stay tuned because after more hours of study I plan on going cow tipping by the end of this summer. Remember the most important tip. "IF THERE IS AN UTTER, NO NEED TO SHUTTER" HA!HA!HA! HAPPY DAYS!!!

OK so the other week when my Niece Jessie was visiting we had this great idea to lay under the clouds and see what we could find. Here are a couple of pictures that we found. I tried to outline the pictures through paint program and even saved it but I can't find it in my files so you'll just have to use your imagination like we did that day. Let me know if you can see the same things. Happy Days. "Pinocchio with his hat tipped down."
