            Shan
Antwon Mitchell appeals from two convictions of the offense of burglary of a
habitation.  Mitchell had originally received deferred adjudication and was
placed on community supervision for six years in each count.  After revoking
Mitchell’s community supervision and adjudicating his guilt, the trial court
assessed his punishment in each count at eight years in the Texas Department of
Criminal Justice, Institutional Division.  We affirm.
In
a single issue on appeal, Mitchell urges that the sentences he received were
cruel and unusual, based on his “horrendous upbringing.”  Because Mitchell
never objected to the punishment assessed either at trial or in a motion for
new trial, nothing is presented for review.  Tex.
R. App. P. 33.1(a)(1)(A); see also Hernandez v. State, No.
11-09-00065-CR, 2010 WL 4148359, at *3 (Tex. App.—Eastland Oct. 21, 2010, pet. ref’d)
(mem. op., not designated for publication).  We overrule Mitchell’s sole issue
on appeal. 
            The
judgments are affirmed.
