“This Makes Me Happy!”

To make my morning routine go a little more smoothly, I  made an Apple Music Christmas playlist. I put Wham! on it four different times! Before we start, I put it on shuffle and my Mom laughs because every time I hear the beginning bars of Wham!; I smile and gasp!

I added four songs to the playlist last night:

Gloria Estefan reminds my Mom (and me) of my aunt Rita.  She died when I was eight.   This was a  Christmas album that I remembered listening to in my younger days.

One more song that  I added to my Christmas playlist was one that my Mom told me that she liked and reminded her of my Dad.   When she told me that, I told her that I didn’t want to hear it. As I was downloading the songs last night, I told Sean that this song reminds Abuela of Grandfather and he said, “That’s enough!”   I exclaimed that that was what I told her but it’s not like that.  At least that’s what my Mom told me.

The four songs that I added, played in this order today sprinkled between my favorite Christmas songs.   When we were finished and I was transferring back to my wheelchair,  my Mom told me that, “This makes me happy!”   It made me happy too!
