When the going gets tough... The tough get going!

Last Night in the house



This is us leaving today for the last time...


I really don't know how to start out this blog. To tell everyone the truth I feel emotionally, physically, and mentally drained.






Over Father's Day weekend I went out to Nashville to visit Jeremy. While I was there I received a offer on my home. I really did not think this was ever going to happen so I was not prepared for it. The offer was great so I excepted the following day. The day after that my house was inspected and a appraiser went through the home. We were not expecting the appraisal to come through for at least a week but, 2 days later it came through and was good.







The buyers of my home had the funds already to purchase the home and wanted to move in the next week. I wasn't coming home until late Friday night so that meant I had Saturday, Sunday, and Monday to move completely out of my home. I was truly in shock by this whole experience. Everything was happening so fast I really was having a hard time leaving my friends and neighbors. I started avoiding everyone because emotionally I couldn't handle it. Every time I would see a neighbor I would brake down in tears. I have been through so much in my home. I felt safe in my neighborhood. I knew if I ever needed anything one of my dear friends and neighbors would be there to help me out. I'm crying right now even thinking about the many lessons and experiences I have gone through and experienced in my neighborhood and the amazing people there who inspired me to become a better person.







Because of the speed in which my house sold my amazing family came to the rescue. They came to my home and moved me completely out in 2 days. We packed everything into a storage unit down the street. I was extended the offer from not only my family to move in with them but, Jeremy's parents in Orem, Jeremy's parents in Arizona, and Romney and Kirstin told me I could move in with them. I was so overwhelmed by every ones generosity. Thank you, Thank you!!!!!







I truly miss my home, more then I expected. But, I know this was the time and I'm ready to move forward and learn new things in a new place. I know the fact that my house sold and sold for what I was asking for is such a HUGE blessing. I am grateful for a all knowing Heavenly Father who timed the sell of my home in such a way that he knew it would be the best time for me and my family to be with extended family.







Since moving out of my home life has thrown me a couple curve balls that to be perfectly honest with you I was not ready to handle. I am thankful for my testimony, I am thankful for family, and am thankful for my children, and I am thankful for the strength to keep going when life gets tough.







Life is never easy!!! Some days it is hard to keep going isn't it. But, what do we do? We keep going because life is worth it! If you were to see me right now I look emotionally, and physically worn down. There have been moments when I just wanted to give up and not go on. But, that is not me RIGHT!!! Things will get better they always do. I have written about this many times in my blog. I'm thankful for my trials and the lessons that I am able to learn. I am thankful that I am tough and that I have the ability to keep going......







I want everyone in my little neighborhood to know that I LOVE YOU ALL!!!!! You have all inspired me and driven me to become a better person. I have met the best mom's in the world since living in Loch Lomond. You all try so hard to do and raise your children to be good and honest people. I have learned so much from each of you. I have learned so much about love from each of you. You have all been there for me in my many times of need. You have lifted me up and helped me become stronger. It is because of each of you I know I have the ability to face the trials and experiences I have ahead of me in my future. I LOVE YOU!!!!!
