A little note from me

Yes I know I never finished my November Thankfuls and I will get to that, I just wanted to write a little post and tell everyone some things.
First of all I wanted to tell everyone Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and lets hope and pray that this next year is the best to come, cause for me this year has been about the worst ever!! Well I can't say ever cause the year before that was probably the worst with my moms accident and all!!

First of all I have to thank my parents for raising me how they did, I was so blessed to have 6 acres to run around on and play outside all I wanted and ride horses, basically do whatever I wanted. They took me to church where I learned the gospel, they loved each other and showed me how true parents live. Some parents never fight in front of their kids which is a great thing but my parents showed me that not every marriage is perfect and sometimes you fight, but making up is the best part about it, you learn from it and grow from it.

My parents raised me to have an understanding of how things work in the world and raised me to know right from wrong and even though I did have my fun and went off the straight and narrow for a while 6 years ago I have turned my life around tons, I know that the repentance process is so very hard and I know what it takes to get through it and it is not easy and it wasn't made to be easy, if it was easy people would do things all the time they aren't suppose to over and over again. This process is so you never do it again. IT IS NOT EASY and I would not wish it on anyone to have to go through this. But once you are done and you have been forgiven it feels so good to be back to where you know you should be. Sometimes people will bring it back up and it feels like a dagger to the heart but then you remember what you went through and they don't even know that half of it so you just smile and say you have no idea what I went through but thanks for thinking of me!!

I know I was on my little soap box there and I'm sorry for that and I know some of you who may read this may think differently and have a different perspective on life which is fine, these are simply just my thoughts and feelings.

I want my friends and neighbors to know how much you all mean to me and Iknow I have not been the best neighbor or the best friend I could be but trust me this next year it is at the top of my list. I cannot and will not have another year like this one and from the bottom of my heart to all those that I had conflicts with I am so so very sorry and please know that if any of you need anything and I mean anything I will be there for you in a heart beat.. I love all of you with all my heart and hope the best for all your family and friends as well! Thank you to those who still allow me in their lives and support me and my family in all that we do...
