  1. Hi thanks for another adventure. I'm always asking restaurants to turn down their music. I just don't like going out to eat and you can't even have a discussion with somebody and makes it so unappetizing to me. Well I'm glad you're getting your Independence and that you're grateful for it and it's awesome just awesome the steps you're taking to move forward bye for now see you tomorrow

  2. 4:08 Good catch!
    5:48 I agree, but don't you think you should need to give the "cleanup" command only once to have Harlow put all of her toys away?
    9:03 I think you call Hippo Harlow…wait. Let's try that again. I think you call Harlow Hippo way too often. 😉
    9:13 Just out of curiosity. What phone would that be?
    9:47 Just now, I remembered you praising your mom in an earlier vlog.
    As I was watching this video, I saw the video I was thinking of. So, for those who would like to watch it…: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Req5R1GxLsI&t=4m51s
    …and then there was a moment when you sang your mom praises, literally! 🙂

    10:41 The helpfulness of some people! You got to love it!

  3. I haven't watched in about a month or so and even unsubscribed because I felt that the vlogs began to be very pessimistic and would depress me but coming back I love the new intro and outro and the positivity that you have. IDK if I'll be back but good job on… life I guess??

  4. Thank you for sharing I'm glad you were able to get out with Harlow and get your eyes done and yes nearsighted is when you can't see far out I'm legally blind and I'm farsighted so the side I do have I'm lucky I'm farsighted does that make sense hair so cute with Harlow and her toys how sweet to print the men's print them out she's a beautiful service dog just lover and I'm glad you took your mother out your mother is very sweet and patient I need to reserve that time together much love God bless and that blanket wow that's awesome what a wonderful charity what a wonderful person much love God bless and I'll see you on the

  5. Don't be afraid to ask for things like having the music turned down. They will almost ALWAYS oblige. My brother in law is a restaurant manager and I know for a fact if you went to his place he'd jump through hoops to please you.
    Also, if you get good service from a place, or they have good food, spread the word. Also, let the manager know. All they ever hear, most of the time, is complaints. It is a big deal for them when someone reports especially good service or food.
    That really goes for any service type thing. I was in the hospital for several days a few years ago. One of the nurses was extraordinary. Dispute being quite ill, and scared (I came very close to not surviving) she did so much to make me feel better.
    I wrote a letter to her boss, telling them how good she was. I got a long letter of thanks back, AND she got a rise in pay, which was something she really needed.
    Things like that really do make a difference, and it can really make someone's day to get a letter praising their work.

  6. The blanket is very pretty! The longer I have to wait for treatment of my Chiari Malformation, the worse my autonomic nervous system gets at controlling my body temp. It seems I'm cold more often, which is crazy since I live in Texas! I really hate what CCI and Chiari does when it paired together with EDS.

  7. So happy to hear that Jaquie! The blanket is made of Muslin which is often used for baby blankets. I’m so glad your mom is so kind and understanding. Huge props to the hostess who turned the music down for you.

  8. Love the blanket. You are so lucky to have such a wonderful relationship with your mother, there is some mothers and daughters that don’t have that and unfortunately I’m one of them,, she lives about 5 miles away and I have teenage granddaughter’s that still live at home, but as sisters go there always bickering. I love my daughter so much and I wish that we had that relationship that you have. You’re very very lucky. On a funny note, my medium size dog kitty just loves to drag out all her toys just like Harlow. So I wait till later on in the evening and have her put them away. I need to purchase a better basket for her for her toys, she has a lid on it but she knows how to lift it, she’s a smart little cookie. I’ll have to go on Instagram and send you a picture of her she’s such a cutie. But there’s so many times I wish she wasn’t so cute because everybody wants to pet her for people come up without even asking to pet her. It’s an all ongoing training issue, because she thinks it’s OK that they come up and pet her and she is now walking towards them when she should be focusing on me. I thought well maybe I should just have a t-shirt made up that says “Please Do Not Pet My Service Dog”. But on the other hand I also thought maybe that wouldn’t even work. She wears patches on her vests and jackets and people still don’t see those. I’m so excited you had a wonderful day going out and just being yourself and being very independent.

  9. As someone who works in two restaurants you should never feel bad about asking to turn the music down ! Most of the time we don’t notice how loud it is being behind the counter and I really doubt any customer is then going to complain the music is too low ? I’ve had people ask to turn it down simply because they didn’t like what was playing, so you definitely shouldn’t feel bad

  10. It's so exciting when you feel well enough to venture out on your own! Congratulations ! We have a handicapped bus service here that picks you up and drops you off in front of your house. If you have something like that where you live, it would give you another option to venture out on your own if you want to go somewhere but are too tired to drive.
