an hour and a half til the new year

and I am already ready to go to bed. Goodbye 2009 hello 2010. 2009 had a lot of ups and downs, two friends of mine died very young. RIP James Hawkins you suffering is over. Mohamed Said i will miss your friendship and honesty. I always told you to be careful on that bike. :( My father's first daughter also died a few months ago; i'm sad that we weren't closer. All I know is they all will forever be missed. Nicholas and I finally made it official Feb 13, 2009 after 6 years off and on, and marriage is hard work, you have to work at it day in and day out and never loose sight of the reason you got married. Very trying times. Both my parents went through back surgery and me and my eldest sister had a falling out and I haven't spoken with her sine Feb. Unfortunately there are people in your life that you have to love from afar. She is one of them. 2010 is a new sheet of paper to start a new chapter in life. Nicholas is going off to fight for our country and Jordyn and I will be moving back to California while he is gone and I plan to keeping myself and our daughter very busy so the time flys by. I'm not making resolutions for the new year, but I am setting personal goals.

1. Master Cleanse for 40 to detox my body and learn more self discipline and pretty much re-wire my mind. my body and my soul.
2. Eat a lot healthier, I am going to try a semi raw food diet to manage my weight.
3. Cardio 30 mins in the morning and 30 mins before bed 3-5 times a week.
4. Get back on my photography grind, i have neglected Zebra Stripes for far too long.
5. I plan on learning how to sew bedding and curtains.
6. I plan on learning how to express my feelings through canvass and paint.
7. I will take a few little vacations to Vegas, DMV, LA and Sacramento during the summer.
8. I will enroll in the Esthetics's course at the local college, i am completely burned out with patient care.
9. I will enroll Jordyn in some type of dance or gymnastics class to keep her occupied and exert her high levels of energy in positive ways.
10. I will spend as much time as I can with our family and friends before we are PCS to our next duty station.

in 2010 3 of my friends are getting married 3 are currently pregnant and I will have a niece or nephew in April and Jordyn will have another God sister.

I just have to hold it together on the home front until he comes home. Out with the old and in with the new.
