Happenings

Another month has come and gone. Life isn’t easy but I have to remember that we aren’t given more than we can handle. We had a good snow storm. Alpine and Luna was with out electric for 3 to 4 days, it was good run for my sisters to find out what they need.
The kids had a snow day so was out of school. One of my co worker neighbors made this snow dragon she told me about so Gary and I went too see it then it made it into the paper.

Wally’s is closed almost clean out. We have had someone come and break down the sample racks. Now you realized how big it is. We are hoping to sell the building. We went for a two hour interview to sign Gary up for social security / disability.

We have been blessed in many ways. We have a wood burning stove and wood to keep us warm; have food to eat, family that cares, I have a job, and so much more. The one thing I wish we were debit free and things wouldn’t be so hard when you go down to just my income.

Hope

January Message from “Time out for women”
We're putting away the notion of New Year's Resolutions this year.Instead, we're bringing out HOPE.Or, rather, New Year's Hopes.Some of us have hope for a mended broken heart.Some of us have hope for more capacity in the one we have.Some of us have hope for the life growing inside us to be born healthy.+Some of us hope for the chance to mother in any way possible.
Some of us hope for the man of our dreams to come along.Some of us hope for the strength to support the man of our dreams.Some of us hope for the will to finally get our bodies in shape.Some of us hope for one more year with our bodies.Whatever we hope FOR, those hopes are only possible because of what we hope IN. As women of God, we hope IN
• the power of the Savior's atonement to change our hearts
• the sanctity of eternal families
• the strength of our covenants
• the reality of eternal life
So, this year, we invite you to write down your HOPES...what you hope FOR.Then write how that hope can be a reality because of what you hope IN.Happy New Year to your HOPES!


I am hoping for a year with more stability in our finances a s I look back on last year there were some good times but it didn’t end well. Gary & I finally made the decision to close Wallys. We are going in debit trying to pay the bills for the store. It is going to be a big change in our lives more so for Gary. I live with hope that that we will be guided in our decisions. I just have to have hope and faith.
