Update!

Yes, I know it has been so long. I missed you too.

Christmas was so amazing! I had such a fun time with my family. I love how wonderful, supportive and fun my family is. 2009 was definitely the hardest year of my life and my family helped me through it, every step of the way. I'm so excited for this year, because it has to be better. Seriously...!

Speaking of better things, I moved to Arizona!! Yup, I moved in with Todd, Amber and all their kids. They're so kind and took me in and I am really loving it. My new ward is so amazing, everyone I meet is so "normal" , I already feel a part of everything, and the weather is nothing to complain about either. I finally feel like things are moving in the right direction and that my life is only going to get better.

During this time I have also realized how grateful I am for my Father in Heaven and my Savior Jesus Christ. When everything was a mess, I gave all my burdens to the Lord and he helped me get over them and push through. I feel so blessed. He lessened the pain of so many things and I came out the other end of everything with a bright view for the future.

Now, onto getting a J-O-B! I say it's high time I had one for goodness sakes.

Ta-ta for now. Hope you're well, wherever you are these days.

Love Chels

I never know what to title these things, so here.

Things are mostly the same here. I had 2 job interviews last week. I try not to feel too optimistic about them, but I do feel like they went better then those in the past. I know that I will get a job soon. I'm trying to use the power of positive thinking. As long as I keep having positive thoughts about getting a job, it's gonna happen.

I also want to thank my family for all their support, specially my parents. They are doing a lot for me, and I seriously don't know what I would do without them. I also want to thanks Alyssa and Taylor for taking me in and helping me so much. I really appreciate and love everyone.

In the meantime, I try to keep busy during the day. A few days a week, I get up early and head to the Provo City Library. I apply for jobs, read my scriptures, and read books about interview techniques and getting out of slumps. So far, it's been really helpful for me. I do better when I am productive and busy. So that is my daily goal.

Yesterday, I didn't have much to do, so I baked lots and lots of cookies. Alyssa took some pics of me making them and the finished product, as you can see.

Next, I am working on my Halloween costume. I bought a dress at Savers (thrift store) and I am making it into something. I won't tell yet, but I will post pics on Halloween. I am pretty excited for a holiday! It will be fun to do something exciting!

I hope everyone is doing well! Love ya! Chels
