Things Work Out

This morning I got up and tried uploading my book again.  It was almost complete and the internet went out again.  Of course it went out....it would have surprised me if it hadn't...a pleasant surprise though.  I decided I could wait a few more hours and had plenty of other things that I needed to do to keep my mind occupied.  I was planning on going visiting teaching and I needed to make a cape for my "Glinda" costume.  Before getting off the computer though I tried going to my blog and when I tried I was shocked to see that my blog had been deleted!  That's what the page said...no more blog!

I started to panic and kept trying to tell myself that it would be okay...I had most of my blog in a file already and was only missing the posts from last week.  I could write them again...things would be okay.  I also thought....it can't be gone because nothing that we post on the internet is ever really gone.  You just have to know the right people who know about computer stuff.  I decided to call Natalie and see if she could back my computer up and put everything back to the way it was yesterday morning before playing around on it.  The back up for this computer hasn't been set up yet and so we couldn't...plus, this was an internet problem not a computer problem.

I kept saying silent prayers pleading to Heavenly Father.  I really didn't want to lose everything....this was important to me.  Natalie had also been saying a few prayers.  It didn't look good though and Natalie was ready to leave but then she sat back down to show me what to try in an hour.  When she sat back down she pushed a few more links and Miracle of Miracles.....there was my account and blog.  Everything was back to the way it was and to be honest neither of us knew how except to say that our Prayers were answered.  Natalie told me that last night at a Youth Fireside someone had said that if you think something is important enough to pray about it then Heavenly Father thinks it is important because He loves us and we are important to Him!  I was thrilled and relieved and very thankful to Natalie for being God's instrument in answering my prayers.

The guys came and changed our disk so that it faces another tower and everything is working great.  I was able to upload my book!  YES!!! The internet stayed on the whole time.  Oh, and after thinking about the problem I was pretty sure it wasn't my computer because it was uploading and if it had been the computer it wouldn't have done what it did.  I am so glad about that because I would not want to worry every time I make a book.  The best part is that when ordering my book I tried the code that said it ended yesterday and it was accepted!  I received the 40% discount!  HOORAY!  I immediately said a prayer to Thank Heavenly Father and then I reached in the air and gave Him a High Five!

My visiting teachers came just a little late but exactly when I had prayed they would.  I wanted to have my book done before leaving the computer.  I finished my cape before going to Trichelle's to watch her kids.  I feel good.  I love knowing that Heavenly Father answers are silly prayers and that we are important enough for Him to do so!  Yeah For Today!
