Month: August 2021

My Civic Duty

Today was voting day in my city I really take voting seriously and have participated in almost all of them. I have only had two mayors for my entire life living in the city. I voted for a third one today:


I was not able to vote absentee so my Mom took me to my precinct to vote. But, it’s August. and therefore extremely warm outside! I noticed the woman who checked me in, who has checked me in for years, noticed that my disease has progressed. I was in my motorized chair and was wearing glasses.

it didn’t take very long to vote but I am grateful that I did! I was number 703:


My Mom told me to throw away the tab on the top of my ballot. I laughed and threw it away but before I did, I told her I still have the bell tab from the first time Sean and I voted together!:

Okay

This Gem OR “They’re Old!”

Sean came over and I was talking with him recently, I had my phone in my hand and I told him that when I scroll through my YouTube feed, (I scrolled through), and showed him my phone and told him that randomly I will get things like, “This gem!” I gave him my phone and he watched the video:

I’m not sure if he was just patronizing me because this is MY band but he watched it and was appreciative of the orchestra accompaniment which I really liked! When the video was finished, Sean looked at me and said, “They’re old!” I just took my phone from him, shook my head, and kind of smirked.

August 2021 Faves

Since I have already established that I am, “Old,” it’s about time for Sara‘s turn. If I’m thinking about when I used to be able to sing I think of her. I saw her when she opened for Maroon 5 just before she got big. I heard her perform these first two songs and I definitely took notice! Within a few weeks, she was on the radio!:
