New Year's Eve

So, today is December 31, 2009.... New Year's Eve..........

I am sitting down and recollecting some of the things that happened in my life this past year. First and most importantly, my baby girl Lyric Onique was born on March 25. She was unexpected, but is truly a blessing and I wouldn't trade her for the world!!!

Also, in January, I was hired as a permanent employee with Quality Carriers. In these "tough economical times", it is a blessing to have a job, even if it is a sh*tty one like mine, but that's another story.


I got a new vehicle in 2008, a Dodge Durango to be exact. With our growing family, it was time for a bigger vehicle, and I'm to fly for a minivan!! LOL!!!



My mother turned 50 years old on September 19, 2008. That is truly a blessing, and she doesn't look a day over 30! Yep, she's 50 and FLY!!

A lot of other important things happened in my life this past year, but I think the most important one of all, is that I have decided to put me first. In the past, I have worried about what other people would think or say, and if I thought someone else would not be happy, then I would aim to please them, not worrying about my own feelings. NO MORE!! I'm first!! 2009 will be the year of the Extreme Makeover: Lariesha Edition. I will start eating right, exercising, and taking care of myself. Life is too short to life with regrets!!!!!!!!!!!!!

~~I'M GONNA SHINE IN '09!!!!!!! Learning from yesterday, living for today, and focused on tomorrow!~~~~~~~~

Peace, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
