The End and THE BEGINNING!

Dearest Readers of mine,
I have now moved to a new blog location, because for obvious reasons I can't keep typing posts as a single Mormon! My new blog is http://thisdayofbliss.blogspot.com/ See you there.

New name

All right, I need a new name for this blog! I'm thinking "A day in the life of a blissfully, exstatically happily married Mormon" might work :D Ay other ideas?

Besides that, here are my observations on adjusting back to Mormonville i.e. Small Town Utah life:

I miss my branch in South Dakota. Who knows if I'll even be asked to give a prayer in my family ward, while I'm used to leading the music, giving prayers, talks, or lessons almost every week! Utah wards just can't compare to branches.

I like living in a city with a temple... now if only I'd get more time so I could go... next week fo sho!

I'm still not used to all the UT license plates! We saw plates from all over the country at Sylvan.

It still weirds me out to hear people talk about church while at work. I've heard people talk about their stake president, the secretary told one of the boys he needs to be in church, and one of the first questions asked me on my first day was if I were LDS. Strange strange strange!!!

I like living closer to my family- though it seems kind of far away still, closer is always better.

Everything I totally missed is so close right now! Maverik with their frozen yogurt, RED BOXES are all over the place, even though Vernal is about 1/2 the size of Rapid, there are more than 2x's the redboxes here :D :D :D, Panda Express and Fazolis are in the State, though not specifically in Vernal.

All in all it's strange, but good to be here. Life is good, but stressful, nice but hard at the same time.
