December 2022 Faves

So, I’ve been listening to my Christmas playlist since December 1! But there is something going on as well. I did not realize this until last night because I was eating a lot of chocolate! I can have the dove dark and mint chocolate and I bite it into four pieces. I usually just have one or three at most but I was eating them a lot and I couldn’t figure out why!

But then, it hit me. It’s December. December 28 is coming. This year, it will be 22 years since I was diagnosed with MS. I have had that for years more than half of my life and that just kind of hurts. So, I can’t get rid of the melancholy feel around this time as well so I’ll post the two songs that help me get through it:

#MyGirlL: Bad Girl!!!

So, today, my Mom was going to watch me put my contacts in when we both heard a crash of breaking glass! It was coming from the kitchen where Leia was so my Mom instead of watching me put my contacts in, want to see what it was.

When my Mom saw it, the litany of, ”Bad girl!” And this is how Leia reacted:


My Mom is still cleaning it up and she will randomly reiterate that Leia is a bad girl! I don’t have my contacts in, I have not brush my teeth or even eaten my lunch. All I’m thinking about now is that I have a movie to watch! Leia still is not moving!:

#MyGirlL: Yakked

I think I need to tell you a little bit of a backstory before I tell you what happened last night. My house was built in 1951. In 1951, disabled people didn’t own houses, especially disabled people using a Power chair! As the homeowner of this house that was built in 1951, it poses a bit of a problem seeing that as the homeowner, I am disabled and I use a power chair!

Basically everything now has a process. The process that we utilize is to make a non-handicapped accessible area, accessible to me.

So, long story short, my power chair is just outside the bathroom as I am inside using the bathroom. Last night, Leia got out of her bed and walked over to the bathroom and just yakked on the floor and turned around.

I thanked her and told her that I appreciated that she did that on the tile but then I had to call my mom to clean it up because having had MS for 21+ years, my sense of smell is so acute!!!

It’s December 1 so I have a Christmas movie to watch now…
