Hello to everyone

Hi there Haven't been able to be on line much lately. Work has been a little on the crazy side. I work for American Airlines and lots of lay offs going on and I'm in the HR dept. My heart goes out to all of you that are struggling right now. We all have those days don't we??!! Last night as I was visit teaching one of my sisters we talked about how incredible it is to have the knowledge we have of the Restoration of the Gospel. I love reading the Doctrine and Convennants and learning what the Lord has in store for us. I hope with all my heart that all of us as we struggle will turn to the scriptures for comfort and peace. I know sometimes I have to force myself to do that..get caught up in my problems and forget there really is a manual for this life :0 I love you all...may never get to meet you in person but I love you because you are Choice Daughters of God and you are my brothers and sisters. We all have had to carry the same burden or challenge if you will with our goal to lose weight and to be able to talk to you is something I cherish. Take care and know you are loved even by those who haven't been able to see the twinkle in your eye up close...I would love to though!! Love to all Alfie

Hi back at ya, Alfie- I am new to the board, but I have enjoyed having a place to come where I don't feel out of place religious-wise. I too, have a love for the D&C, they contain such nuggets of wisdom, and really are a guide. I have been feeling pretty guilty because I missed Church the last 2 Sundays-we switched to the 9am schedule and I am having a hard time getting up and rolling early enough-last week my alarm didn't go off at all and I slept until almost 11. Talk about lazy and frustrated! I am not a morning person, but I try. I think we are struggle with life-some more than others at times, and some more obviously than others. Yes, it's good to know there is a book of instructions! thanks for your loving words, lynn

Hi Alfie - I love coming to these boards and seeing what others are up to. I'm learning that I'm not alone with some of the struggles that I have. I've learned that others are/have faced some of the same types of struggles that I'm going through. I love hearing how some are overcoming their struggles and how they face them. I also love hearing about the many, many, many successes that are also occuring. Here's to the board Melody
