Updating my life

so it has been a little while since I wrote. SORRY about that. I had some ISSUES!

On January 13th I Lost my floral shop. I was told that I was not making money for the company and that my SHRINK (STUFF you toss away) was to much and that I was being demoted.
I said fine! they gave me two different things, 1 become a checker and keep the same pay scale, or become a back up for a floral shop and get a $5 pay cut but 32 hours. I said I would take the checker ...... I think I made a mistake. we will see. Yes I was heart broken, I really was. I cried so much that I got a stye in my eye.

I have to tell you....this is where my true friends came into play. Thank you TED! Ted took a few minutes out of his life to comfort me and teach me a few lessons.

I learned a new scripture that is now my all time favorite and learning it by heart.
Helaman 5:12 (sorry I was trying to post it but I cant... go to LDS.org and look under scriptures.


I just need to have faith and that is what I have.

So I am trying to do this is some sort of order..

I was a basket case most of the rest of week. DEPRESSION was setting in and I was not loving myself.

and then came my birthday... OH JOY! you really think I wanted to celebrate. NO NOT NOWAY. but I had many phone calls and text messages and well I want to tell you, It made me cry. and Then to top it all off, my friends threw me a birthday party.

YES I was all tears... not because I was sad, but because I have so many wonderful friends!!! THANK YOU! it really did mean the world to me!

So Friday I took a minute to go to the temple. I sat in the temple and just prayed and well the Lord kicked me in the butt really good. So that is where I am today... I am going back to school. YES I know what am I thinking.... but I am going back to school and I will fill you in more later.

I am not leaving my home here in seattle, so It will be local jr colleges to get me to where I want to go.
Keep pushing me and IT will happen.

Love you all so much and I am so thankful I have remarkable friends!!!

Post 175 Happy New Year 2010

Just wanted to take a minute and Thank you all for reading my blog and commenting on it and well just being there for me.

as I sit here tonight I have lot of many different things going on in my mind! just circles going around and around, think its because I still have neck pains from September.

anyway I just wanted to say thank you and I am here ready for the next step.

2010 Resolutions

Well I want to make 2009 count... Melissa said it best in her facebook when she said her's was LOVE, LIVE and LAUGH!

What better goal is that! I would like to copy that and say the same thing and that would be it.

BUT you all know me mine would have to be much longer and well IT'S Scott.

I am going to LIVE this year. 2010 I am going to LIVE it, to the fullness.

LAUGH, I am finding myself not laughing enough so YES I am going to LAUGH. I had many things to laugh at in 2009.

LOVE.. I would like to be able to LOVE more... LOVE more people and make sure they know I LOVE them.

As Lucy and I were at dinner the other night saying what are we going to do... WELL I never keep any reolutions that I make....

Lucy said SERVICE... So I might add that into the filter... I have no problem giving of my time, its the time I need to give.

And then we have Ben that tell me my goal for 2010 is to SAVE money to BUY a house!!! LOL good goal for him. since he has the degree and a wife and family and is buying a house... but its IOWA...

SO I would say yes, a goal for me is to save a few dollars... WE will see.

I paid off all my credit cards so THAT is a plus for me...
