Dusty Got a Job!

I can hardly believe it. It almost doesn't feel real. He received the offer yesterday. It is not His dream job, (or pay) but, it is more than He gets on unemployment and I make at Wal-mart, combined. He also feels that He can make a real difference there. I have decided to stay on at Wal-mart, just for the minimum hours to help out a little. We have been so blessed for the last seven months. I know without a doubt Heavenly Father really has taken care of us.

Twilight Party

Friday night I got to go to the Twilight Movie release party at work. I got paid :). I doubt that I would have gone to this otherwise. I have to say that I did have a good time. One of the stars, "Victoria", from the movie came. It was kind of a big deal. I estimate there was at least three to four thousand (yes thousand) people there. (Based on sales). It really was crazy. I am amazed at how star struck people get. I did get a free signed copy of the DVD, and a t-shirt. I worked until 3 A.M. So all weekend I was dragging!

Can you handle it? (Picture from the newspaper) see me in the waaaay back? NO? Well I did put the red table cloth on. I know, wow, huh?

Life Goes On

It is so amazing how life takes such twists and turns. One moment can be so happy and the next completely opposite.
I saw a friend yesterday. We went to school together, and she was in my stake, but we were not extremely close. She started to tell me about her husband. He has M.S. It has taken away their entire lives. Not just physically but mentally. She no longer has a husband, he doesn't even remember being married. He is a twelve year old boy in a failing adult body.
My problems suddenly became so minor. Dusty still has not been able to find a job but at least I have him. We have been so blessed I just can't fathom were we would be without the hand of the Lord in our lives.
