At 9am in the morning I am here at work and looking out at the beautiful day! Fall has arrived and the mornings are cooler, days cooler and nights heavenly! I LOVE Autumn!! It reminds me of the scene in You've Got Mail, when Meg Ryan talks about pumpkins and the smell of office supplies, pencils in particular! Makes me smile even now thinking of it. I love Fall!!! And a small tidbit of information it is the best time to strive and loose a few pounds as our metabolisms speed up to compensate for the warm comfort foods of winter.
This blog isn't followed by many which is fine as I suppose it is more of a Journal than blog. Since it has been a while since I have written, rest assured not much has occurred in our lives. Usual is usual. We eat, work/school, sleep and then do it all again. Kinda monotonous. And very unexciting. All children are healthy and well. Adjusting to their respective activities. Matthew LOVES flying. He has been up 4 or 5 times and has hovered and loves every second! He gets a bit nervous and tense, but eventually loosens up. He is working hard at his studies and also his spiritual situation. Mostly due to James and his example. Which is SO wonderful. That boy has a spirit and to be touched by it clear from Aregentina says much about him. James who is doing so well has been gone ten months already! I hope the rest of the time flies quickly too! His cute Josie is doing well and has survived a month with us. That says much about her personality to survive!! haha But she is a sweetheart. She even handles her homesickness well. I am happy for her and her choices, I hope she is too.
Whitney has been enjoying her time in High School, well as much as she enjoys school..... Her class load is pretty tough and she will be challenged this year, but I have no doubt that she will handle it fine. This week is Homecoming and Her and Josie have been attending a few events together...THANK YOU Josie!! It has been an experience to see Whitney excited for the games and such. Today her hair was all curled cute and school colors worn. To bad all the guys of Logan High are to stupid to notice quality... but her time will come. It will be kinda fun to see her hit by the love bug when it comes. Course he may have to carry a bat to get her to see it! hehehehe
Melissa is still working at Deseret Industries, her time is short there as they are a temporary stop. With the economy I don't expect much from her job search, but it seems to really tire her and make life more difficult. Her spirit is so sweet, yet so hard....
I am aching for my sister. Life has dealt a tough hand and I admire her strength and love her to pieces. But sadly other family hasn't seem to accept her choices and there is a gap widening the ties that bind. IT is a sad situation, sadder still that walls are being built higher than the one Europe tore down. Actions have a way of affecting long after the event itself.... LOVE YOU BABY!!!!
