Life has been nothing short of stressful in the Norton household as of late. However, things are starting to look up. (Thank goodness!) Within the two months we have lived here it has been a roller coaster of emotions (mainly surrounding employment issues). Let me just lay it out for you plain and simple:
- Beginning of January - moved to Utah & didn't have jobs
- 2 weeks of living in Utah - we both secured jobs
- 1 week after Kenny was employed at his job he got promoted! More money, better title/position (yay!)
- 2 days after Kenny getting promoted he got laid off. LAME!
- 1 very very very long month of Kenny being unemployed, working his tooshy off to find a job...only to have scam after scam contact him regarding employment...meanwhile we were loosing steam, and it was harder to keep a positive attitude
- Finally (yesterday - to be exact) after all his hard work, Kenny was offered a great job, close to our house, great hours, good pay, and he even gets to fly back to San Diego to train for the job!
We feel very blessed. We also feel humbled to know that there have been so many people praying for us, & Kenny in particular. We have awesome friends and family. & Even though this has been a very hard time for us, we know that Heavenly Father is always mindful of us and our situation. & we also know (without any doubt) that his job was an answer to many many prayers. Can I just say it again? ... We are so very blessed!
...now if only I could go with Kenny to San Diego... :]

Unemployed
As of yesterday, at 3pm, I am officially unemployed. (For the time being)
I have spent the last year and a half working for the most amazing people, and so it was a very bitter sweet experience saying goodbye. This job has been a huge blessing in more ways than one. I will always feel that my time spent there was a part of divine intervention. I can see looking back on the experience that it was one of those situations where Heavenly Father picks you up and places you where you need to be. While at that job I was surrounded by people who truly understood how I felt and understood the many life changing experiences that I had during my time working there. My boss was my biggest supporter, she was with me every step of the way as I met, fell in love, and got married to Mr. Norton. She saw it from the very beginning!! I will always have a very special place in my heart for the time that I spent at Perfection Glass and I will always think of those people I worked with as family.
Today I feel blessed for the opportunities that Heavenly Father has given me - including the opportunity to work at such a wonderful place as Perfection Glass.
