My Daily Miracle

So, I realize this is my daily miracle blog, but I'm making it into a miracle/grateful for/ blessed with blog. Today I would like to just mention that I am gratefully blessed with the miracle of inspiration. I have been really in to making things. I guess it stems from my love of art, but lately it has been furniture. There are a few blogs that I love to look at. In fact, they have become a daily ritual for me. I'm just glad that there are people out there who like to same some cash, create their own things and share it. Here are a few my favorites: http://knockoffwood.blogspot.com/ http://4sweetpeasinapod.blogspot.com/ http://betterafter.blogspot.com/

Today I scheduled bridal pictures for one of my friends. It seemed like it would be a nice day, the sun was out and shining. Then closer to the time of the photo shoot, the clouds rolled in.  I was happy about the over cast but not so happy about the black angry looking clouds. Well, the sun stayed out and the rain kept away until the very last picture. That is when we had to make a mad dash for the car because it started pouring rain. I was just grateful it stayed away long enough to get the photos done.

Since I've been back to Utah, I've come to realize how many single friends I don't have here. It's amazing how many people can get married in just a year.  Well, I am very blessed to have my neighbor, Callie.  She came to church with me today and has just been someone fun to do things with. I think we both showed up at the perfect time for each other. So, today I was blessed with a friend.

Today was a GREAT day! the thing that I was blessed with was all things old. It started off with a great deal on some old windows that will soon become frames for my rustic photographs. I was over-joyed when I found them on craigslist.  Then I was driving down the street and saw the cutest old couple riding their bikes. They had to be in their late 70's or early 80's. The wife had a cute little basket on her bike and they just looked like they were having so much fun together. Then I went with my friend Lauren and her 2 kids to explore Vernon and the surrounding areas.  We found so many old run down houses that were no longer inhabited. Lets just say that my memory cards filled up pretty quickly. Some of these places had so much history to them, and it was just really cool. Once I get to my own computer, I will add some pictures. I love old things!!

My uncle DaWayne offered to give up a room in his house for me. Before I moved out here I was kinda panicking  because I didn't know where I could live that was cheap. Problem solved! Heavenly Father blessed me with a room! Thanks DaWayne!

I know it may sound silly, but today I got all 8 of my packages that I shipped from Hawaii. They came a lot faster than I expected and they were all in one piece!! I consider it a miracle!

As many of you know, I just quit my job and moved from Hawaii to Utah. Now, I'm in the great hunt for a job. It's tougher than I thought here. So many people are losing jobs and now looking that it makes it tough. Today, as I was going through a pile of mail my grandma had been saving for me, I found $100 with my name on it. I had a $50 check from a previous job and a $50 rebate check from Verizon. I'm so thankful that Heavenly Father is always looking out for me. I moved here because He told me I needed to, and I have learned that when you do what Heavenly Father tells you to do, he blesses you immensely. So, my daily miracle for day 2 is $100 cash.

Today, as I was flying over the Pacific Ocean, I fell asleep with my head against the window of the plane. I awoke several times to adjust my head position and when I did it again, I opened my eyes for a split second and was blown away at how beautiful the sunrise was over the ocean. there was nothing for miles but ocean and blue and orange and yellow sky. I took a picture, which I will post soon and I started to think. This is one of those miracles that God blesses us with and so many people don't even notice. Then I thought to myself, self, you should take note of these little miracles in your life. So, I decided to start this blog. I am going to post one new miracle I have each day. I think it will be a great way for me to remember how blessed I truly am. There is a scripture in Alma 30:44 that says, "...The scriptures are laid before thee, yea, and all things denote there is a God; yea, even the earth, and all things that are upon the face of it, yea, and its mot...
