I’ve decided to see how long it’ll take me to put together every jigsaw puzzle I have (~200). This past week: puzzles my mom got me from national parks, etc., that she’s visited. 1. Rocky Mountain (500) 2. Crater Lake (500) 3. Natural Bridges (500, 1 missing) 4. Glacier (500)

I remember seeing this commercial on tv when I was a kid!

During the winter, days can feel heavy and gray. As a regular part of their work before flights, pilots do outside checks of their aircraft. During cold and rainy days, this is not their favorite part of the job. But one of my favorite experiences as a pilot on a day like that came after taking off and climbing through dark clouds when, suddenly, the aircraft climbed into the clear, brilliant, and beautiful sunlight—leaving behind dark clouds, rain, and slush. That instant contrast taught me that when we focus our eyes on heaven, we can emerge into light—even during the seemingly darkest of days. However thick the clouds, the sun is always there, waiting to shine on us as we rise toward heaven. If you feel weighed down and troubled, please don’t lose heart. Keep moving forward and upward with faith, prayer, and trust in the Lord. His light is always there to lead and comfort us.

Finally got my axolotl from P12S! Also got the wings from Dawntrail EX6 on my first clear! #FFXIV

It was amazing! All the songs were good, but I think my favorite was The Final Day from FFXIV Endwalker.

We’re here, waiting for Distant Worlds to start! My kids each had to get a plushie, of course!

@hatsupuppy Long, lol

@EssentiaFour How was the merch line?

I’m taking my three oldest kids to Distant Worlds in Salt Lake tonight! Two of my nieces and one of my nephews will be there as well. We’re all so excited!

Transcendent Experience When a prophet dies, the transition to the next prophet is orderly for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The established pattern is that the senior apostle becomes the next prophet. After President Russell M. Nelson died Sept. 27, President Dallin H. Oaks was ordained as the church’s 18th prophet in a special meeting of the Twelve on Tuesday, Oct. 14. In this Church News video, titled "Transcendent Experience," President D. Todd Christofferson of the First Presidency and President Jeffrey R. Holland, president of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, talk about their previous experiences participating in a sacred meeting when a new prophet is ordained. The meeting in which President Russell M. Nelson was ordained as president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was the first such meeting President Christofferson was able to attend. He said he felt the strong impression during the meeting that the process was inspired. “It was the Lord’s will and direction and the witness of his Spirit in the moment that I found very powerful,” he said.
