Life is Like a 1,000 Piece Puzzle

Wow. I haven't posted in almost 2 months. My life has been a little crazy the past two months. As for the title of this blog, I started putting together a 1,000 piece puzzle a couple of months ago. I'm not sure what possessed me to do that since I don't like big puzzles. Maybe it's the stress of trying to get Amber through Algebra? I got quite a bit of the puzzle put together, but I got alot of help from David and Zac. Which is good. It would have taken me forever to do it myself - especially the part with the panther where all the pieces are black. Don't know how David and Zac did that part. What I'm saying is, in life you do the best you can, but there are times things get complicated and you can't do things yourself and you need help. And sometimes you mess up, even with the best of intentions and efforts. Sometimes things don't go the way you had hoped or planned. Thank goodness there are people that are willing to help. And, of course, there is always, always Heavenly Father to turn to. When you can't handle everything, He's always there. I've decided I'm not going back to school with the Digital Arts Grant. Joe is not shutting down HCPT any time soon and I can't go to school full time and work almost full time and be a wife and mother and Primary President and everything else and do school full time too. Even taking one online course at time has been a struggle, so I can't imagine what it would be like trying to go to school full time on top of everything else. But that's OK. Life it good and things will all work out. Cameron got his mission call the day before his birthday. It's old news now, but he'd going to the San Jose California Mission. Spanish speaking. We've gotten a couple of things for Cameron's mission, but there's still alot more to get. Cameron got his temple recommend, so now he needs to figure out when he's going to go to the temple. Then he may start working in the baptistry at our temple. One of our neighbors works there every Wednesday morning and has offered to give Cameron a lift. I think working in the temple would be a great experience for Cameron, especially as he's preparing to leave for his mission. Jarom is getting ready to go the Engineering Week next week. I'm not sure if he's packed yet, but I'm taking next Monday and Thursday off so we can drop him off and pick him up. Should be exciting. Amber's been at Oakcrest Camp all week. She comes home today. Hope's she's had a fun time. Well, got to go. It's almost time for me to go to work. Have a great day. Blogspot is still doing the all one paragraph thing. I wonder how I change that???
