Day 9

I am thankful for my kindle. I love it so much! I love that I am able to read anything I have on it at anytime. I can carry it around with me wherever I go. It is probably one of the best gifts I have ever received!

Day 8

8. I am thankful for music. Without music in my life, I think I would be lost. My music helps me through so much. Whatever I am feeling, I can find a song or band that helps me through it. Music is also a way that I feel the spirit so I am so thankful for music in my life.

Days 5, 6 and 7.

5. I am thankful for the temple. I got to go to the temple on Saturday and I love being able to go and feel the spirit and to be able to do work that needs to be done.
6. I am thankful for my job. I am so glad that I got a job. I am glad that I am able to support myself. I am grateful for the friends that I make through the jobs that I have had.
7. I am thankful for my car. It is a great little car and is super dependable. It gets from point A-Z and every point in between.

I am Thankful Day 4

4. I am thankful for Heavenly Father. He is such a huge aspect in my life. I know that He loves me and cares about me. He is continuously blessing me in my daily life. I know that I can always count on Him and He will help me out when I need it and sometimes when I think I don't need it. I love Him and am so grateful that I know that He cares for me and takes time to listen to me and to help me. 

Things I am Thankful For....Days 1-3

Okay since it is that wonderful time of the year where we start thinking about what we are thankful for, I decided that I would post 1 thing I am thankful for every day. But since it is the 3rd of November I am going to do 3 in one post :)
1. My Family: I love my family so much! They are so awesome! I am so thankful for their examples in my life. I have my Dad, who is so strong in the gospel and he is my rock. I love him so much and am so thankful that I was given him as a father. My Mom and I are so much alike, which can cause problems at times, but is so fun! We like the same types of books which is great! I am a major reader and I love to read all types of books. My brother, Josh is a fantastic example to me. He recently left on his mission and I am so proud of him. I think it is great that he would sacrifice 2 years to teach the gospel. I love him and miss him every day. My sister, Amanda is just a fun girl. She can always make me laugh and she gives the best fashion advice. She is a fabulous basketball player and is so fun to watch! I LOVE MY FAMILY!
2. Emma Stuckey: She is my best friend and I am so thankful for her. She has kept me going when I am down. I broke with my boyfriend about 2 months ago and she was there whenever I needed her. I can always count on her to make me laugh. She is always getting me hooked on new tv shows. She has hooked me on: Bones, Chuck, Leverage, Castle, Franklin and Bash, Studio 60 and probably some more that I can't think of right now. She is an amazing person and a fantastic friend and I love her!
3. The Gospel: I LOVE the Gospel! It is AMAZING!!! It has brought me close to my Heavenly Father and I have received so many blessing from it. It helps me with all of my decisions and helps me be a better person. It allows me to make good choices so that I am healthy and happy. I think that everyone should love the Gospel! I think that I have appreciated it even more now that I am living in Utah. There are so many members here but not everyone is a faithful member. I am so glad that I was raised in PA and was able to have such a strong testimony!
Those are my 1st three things I am thankful for. Till tomorrow.......

Update

WOW! It has been awhile since I have posted on this thing. LOL. I have been in Utah for a year and so much has happened. I have had jobs, lost jobs. I was dating this guy for a little over 8 months, however he decided he didn't want to be Mormon anymore so that ended. I feel like I have been so blessed even though I have had so many trials this year.
I am so thankful to my Heavenly Father for everything He has given me. He has given me FANTASTIC friends who have helped me through all of the issues I have had. He has given me an AMAZING family who love me and care about me. He continues to give me guidance throughout my life. I am so thankful for Him and everything He has given me.
So what is going on right now in my life?
My little brother, Josh left on his mission 8 weeks ago and is doing so well in the MTC. He is serving in the Campinas, Brazil Mission. I know that he will be a fantastic missionary. He loves the gospel so much. My cousin, tanner just left on his mission about a month ago. He is serving in the Washington DC South Mission. I know he will do well as a missionary too. It is so weird to me that my little brother and cousin are gone for 2 years! I miss them both so much.
I am doing well. I just got a full time job, not a temp job-which is what I have been doing for the past couple of months. I am working for a company called ROI Solutions which is a customer service call center. I just started this past Monday but I am liking it so far. This is just another blessing from the Lord. I am living in an apartment with 3 other girls. I can't say that I like living with other girls but what can you do. LOL. I am still hanging out with my best friend Emma. I have also become great friends with a girl named Jenesis. She is actually getting married on Jan 3rd and I am a bridesmaid. :) So that is fun!
So that is a little update. I think that I am going to start posting regularly from now on. :)

Finally!

I have lived in Utah for a bout a month now. I have have things I like and things I don't like about Utah.

THINGS I LIKE:

-Everything is so close.

-I don't use as much gas.

-There are a ton of different places to eat.

-There is a dollar theater right down the street :)

-I live 15 minutes away from my Aunt and Uncle and Cousins. LOVE THEM

-I get to spend a ton of time with my best friend, Emma Stuckey

THINGS I DON'T LIKE:

-The drivers are CRAZY!

-People think that driving 15 minutes is forever away!

-It is cold.

-It snows a lot.

-It took me a month to get a job.

So other than those couple of things that I don't like, I am enjoying it. I finally got a job!!!! This is an answer to my prayers. (also I would like to thank everyone in PA who continued to pray for me.) I have been praying so much and so hard and I am so grateful to my Heavenly Father. I know that He has a plan for me and He knows how much I can truly handle. I though I could not handle any more stress and I told Him that I was beginning to fear instead of have faith and the next day I got a job!!!!!

The job is working for Caremark Insurance Company (which is ironic since I worked for CVS and the two companies are combined). I am going to be working in the Prior Authorization Department. Which means when a drug needs approved for payment by the insurance company, it is my job to review the case and talk to doctors and pharmacies if needed. I am so excited that I finally got a job.

So thank you again to everyone who prayed for me. I really appreciate it. I love you all.
