Ahh, Provo. It's surprisingly good to be back. I moved back right after Christmas and moved into K and R's place. It wasn't exactly fun at first...I was alone in their house while they were out of town for the holidays, and the temperature hovered around 0 degrees Fahrenheit the entire first week I was there (even in the "heat" of the day). It wasn't THAT bad to deal with, though the cold and terrible air quality made me sick and didn't want to let me breathe. But soon after coming up here, the Lord blessed me greatly. J and I found the perfect place to live! Our Hobbit Hole (perfectly named) is in the basement of a house. The landlord is fabulous; she has provided all the furnishings (including a queen bed for J!) and dishes, and she pays for most of the amenities, including internet for our work. It's really a perfect situation. Our LDS young single adult ward also seems like it will be really good, with a wide range of ages, lots of guys (most of my wards in Provo had an overabundance of girls, so this is a nice change), and a great bishop. Work with my SEO job is continuing as usual with some added blessings. We've gotten a few new clients lately, and one of our clients is absolutely loving the work I produce. That's always nice to hear! I'm also grateful for the new friendships I'm forming, one in particular and others that I'm sure will come as I get to know the people in my ward. The Lord has been so good to me lately! A good place to live, good roommate and friend to live with, good family nearby that are always generous and fun, good friends, good work, good ward...life is good! I'm filled with gratitude for how the Lord has blessed my life. I am excited to see what is in store as my new life continues here. New beginnings! It will be awesome! Kronk out.
So glad to hear it! :)
ReplyDeleteExcuse me! This is really random but I was hoping you could help me with something. On Monday, April 9, 2012 you posted song lyrics from I Will Stand by Christy Hinkson and I was wondering if you knew of any way I could buy that song. It doesn't seem to be on iTunes and I was hoping to use it for our YW camp song this year. I'm sorry to bother you but I'd really appreciate it if you had any further info. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteViolet, I'm sorry but I don't know where you could purchase it! We used it for a YW song a good 10 or 12 years ago. You can search for Christy Hinkson online and see where that gets you. This might help:

The version we used was a solo version and these are 4 part, so I'm not sure where to find the solo version. Good luck!
I'm happy you are happy! These changes in your life were definitely a result of your following the Spirit and seeking the Lord's will in your decisions, and although I miss having you near, I feel certain He is directly involved in the happenings in your life. I love you tons and lots and am so grateful to see all the "good" things coming to you. Patience will pay off. Love you, Sweet Girl.
