A Lifetime Ago…

Last night, as I was drifting off to sleep, I had a memory of me tossing my Canadian crutches into the passenger seat of my front seat because I was still driving back then.

I ruined the passengers seat dashboard console where the glove boxes of my first two cars are that I owned! I was in a wheelchair full-time by the time I had to install my chair chopper on top of my car so I didn’t use my Canadian crutches anymore.

I can’t get into a regular a car anymore and I travel in my power chair when I leave the house. these memories seemed like a lifetime ago last night as I drifted off to sleep…

An Encore Performance

I told my Mom about the movie that I watched yesterday so I decided to watch it again today! She ended up coming back here early today, so I decided this would be an encore performance and I restarted the movie and we saw it together. We haven’t watched a movie together in a long time! Because I watched the same movie again, I didn’t post the song that I had forgotten about but then I remembered when I heard it:

Bold!!!

I just watched this movie and reminded me of my friend, Hope!!!:

I remember when she suggested this movie to me, and when I watched it, I was astounded, and I could not believe how bold Sophia was, and we laughed and laughed and laughed!!!

An Experience

I was recently thinking about this movie;

I had seen this movie years ago and I couldn’t quite remember it. I remember that Queen Latifah was in it and I remember her being funny. My Mom was still here when I started watching the movie because she hadn’t left for my nephew’s graduation party yet.

My Mom saw the part where the little girl and her mom, (Jennifer Gardner) they ate with Queen Latifah at an art museum. The little girl stares at a painting intently! My Mom asked what was going on and I said that,”She is having an experience.”

I feel that I am too having an experience! I’m not sure if it’s my vitamin change or something else but It’s something! It’s a little bit exciting!

June 2024 Faves

I think posting this picture is a little premature because I think we went to the concert in July but I love this picture every year I get older! I think I was 29?! I love it more now!!! This was my very last concert that I was able to attend:

I remember seeing them walk out on stage with this song, and they came from the left of the stage.

Well worth the swear words!!!:



I kept yelling for them to sing this song! I was the last row of the disabled section, but they couldn’t hear me and they didn’t perform it:

Is it?!

My mom is at my aunt’s house setting up for my nephew’s graduation party. I watched Fr. Stu.

I hadn’t seen this movie for a while but I was recently thinking about the scene when he’s on the side of the road and Mary comes to him. But this part really got to me!!!:

Is my suffering a gift from God?! Is it?! I will tell you this is difficult for sure!!!

Exhausted

I opened my eyes this morning, and I was exhausted! I couldn’t figure out why until I got my morning vitamins, and realized that I forgot to take my night vitamins AGAIN last night! Grrr!!!

got me thinking all day today that I really need that many vitamins a day so it just points to my disease progression which kind of stinks…
