I know I haven't written in my blog for a long time but it ok because the people who read it and leave a message I talk to about everyday anyway. Last Tuesday, July 15th we close the door to our house in South Jordan. It was a beautiful house. We lived there just short of 6 years, we moved more to the south. we are a little more out into the country, a little further from my work, but my favorite part is we are closer to our children that live here in Utah. I hope they all think it grand as much as pat and i do. we still live on the west side of the valley hearing the trains go by, I love it. I walk with the farm animals in the morning. it takes me a little longer to get to work but that seem ok to me. over the last 3 months I have never cried so much. Pat did most of the packing. He finally got into when I told him this was his job for the next few months and he would get paid at the end. we dejunked and gave away stuff and sold a few things and the conclusion is we still have too much stuff. My girls and their hunbands took there weekends to load up boxes and lifted up box and unload boxes. I can't thank them enough. During all this box stuffing. 2 of my Daughter-in-law gave birth new babies. Joe and Laurie had a sweet boy and David and Allyson had there sweet pink little girl. I know I haven't been much help to either family. I have notice that our new home is taking shape. Pat and I have alot to do still. But one box @ a time. it a simple sweet house it got a nice spirit about it. the boxes are coming so slow because I work all the time. most of what i get done i do on the weekend. I learned the other day. We experience some fear in anything we do.it is when you stop forward you lose Faith. Faith can be maintained even with fear as long as we are moving forward and get through what is hard at the time. I thought I would never move again when I came to Utah but alas no one know my history except my family and my friends in Sunnyvale. I have made so great new friends along the way, but they weren't with me when I raised my family. So I always go back to what I loved the best. My friends in Sunnyvale. I will grow where I am planted, I always do. but that special knowledge that a friend knows all about you and they saw that you grew up with your family, they know your history, it's unique and you would understand it if you have experienced it. I love that I am closer to my children and their kids, my darling grand children, I get to see my dad more often. I am given my self, to get things straigthen out, until September. so, maybe I can help with the next grandkid that coming! I will miss my beautiful house but I can't take it with me.
I feel peaceful about the way it has work out. Don't know why, as of yet, why we are here but time will tell.
