New Beginnings

Spring in Coeur d'Alene Idaho is quite beautiful. The blossoms on the trees are so bright. They remind me of a new beginning. It is a nice place to live but I know that my life is heading in another direction to a place that at this point I am not sure where it is exactly yet.












During the month of April, I became divorced from my former spouse. I have had a mixture of feelings about it happening but I place my trust in God and keep going everyday. Today marks the end of a long drive to work in Ponderay, ID. I was blessed to work there among friends for the last year. They gave me the rose plant as seen below and I hope that I will be able to keep it alive. It was very thoughtful and I am grateful for their friendship while working in the pharmacy. I will now be working closer to where I live which will save a lot on gas.

April already!

So last month on the day after my birthday I drove home to meridian to see my family. It was a weekend that was needed. I had not seen my family for over a year. My parents are moving to the Portland, Oregon area since my dad has a new job there now. My sister is back in Rexburg attending BYU-Idaho and will have a terrific semester.
As for myself, I am now divorced and living in my own place in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. I am still working as a pharmacy technician for Wal-Mart. Currently I am trying to figure out the next step in my life. I thought that my marriage would last forever but due to reasons that even I don't understand completly it ended. I am waiting on the Lord and making the decision as to where I am needed next. I have options but not sure which one will be the best for me.
After the 4 1/2 years that I was married, I have learned many things and I do not regret my decision to marry Charles. I knew that it was right to marry him and I know I listened to God when I made the choice to say yes as I knelt across from him. Now our lives are heading in different directions and the marriage did not make it.
For now I keep in touch with friends and family. They are my strength and the Lord is by my side. I will keep praising my Heavenly Father for the wonderful things he has done for me.
April is almost over, and the trees outside are beautiful. I am grateful to live in such a beautiful place with mountains and trees.
