Happy New Year. I know you guys have been taking it back to 2016. But I just want to take a moment to reflect on some of my most memorable moments from 2025
1. A rare selfie. I used to try and capture every moment. But lately I barely pull out my phone. I plan to start taking pictures again this year
2. My cousins/besties Mo & Keina came to visit me a few times. This always makes me happy as although it’s been almost 3 years since I’ve moved upstate, I still don’t know many people here aside from my family. I plan to get outside more and make new friends in 2026
3. I bought a Kindle last Summer and spent a lot of time reading by the pool. Looking forward to working through my TBR List this year
4. 5. I took my first cruise, a solo cruise on the Escape to Bermuda, and spent my birthday cruising home. God wiling, I’ll be cruising again this year
6.7. My Sonshine took me to brunch at to celebrate my birthday. Our schedules are different so I don’t get to spend as much time with him as I’d like. I pray we get to spend more time together in 2026
8.9. My family put together a surprise birthday dinner for me at . A time was had
10. I passed the Civil Service Exam for my job last year- #1 on the list, and was appointed Permanent in my position
11.12.13. Moved to the top floor of my building. The new spot is more spacious, quiet & I now have a private balcony instead of the open patio. My plants are loving the extra sunlight from the larger windows. Can’t wait to give y’all a tour
14. I saw lots of shows at including Wicked, Beauty & The Beast, Aladdin & Shucked. Can’t wait to see more shows in 2026
15.16. Bought a new whip after my last car was totaled. I was rear ended on the highway by a driver speeding and not paying attention. Fell in love with this CPO 2023 Civic Touring. My guy Tom at helped me find the perfect car for me
17.18. Thoroughly enjoyed my monthly subscription at . More massages in 2026
19. Thanksgiving with the fam
20. Christmas was littt although I was sick
Let’s see what 2026 has in store for me 🙏🏾
