First, I would like to recognize Stephen Commander on his recent birthday! I hope you enjoyed your day!

I also want to recognize Zach’s cool “Don’t blend in, blend out!” holiday sweater.

zach tweeted a picture of him in blue mask and his green don't blend in, blend out green holiday sweater with white snowflakes, sleighs, and reindeer

Fittingly for a few days before Christmas, members discussed their favorite holiday traditions.

zach asks what members favorite holiday traditions are. stephen said eating homemade chex mix with corn and wheat chex, peanuts, and pretzels

blemi tweets she loves watching people open presents she gave them. zach tweets he loves giving gifts when he doesn't have to ask

Next, members discussed the challenges and opportunities that can come from not being able to drive.

stephen tweets he wishes he could drive and not have to rely on his parents. veronica tweeted she was chauffeured by her son this afternoon.

veronica tweeted it was a condition of him getting his license and second car. veronica tweeted her children learned it is different to have a parent with a disability, but they help pay for his car expenses wile he goes through veterinary school

zach responds to stephen by saying he understands, but he has found benefits to not driving by spending bonus time with people he cares about

Finally, Veronica tweeted about her recent laser eye surgery and members asked questions about it.

veronica tweets about a laser treatment she had her eye to help the lens with reading. i ask if the treatments are painful. veronica tweeted the treatment was not painful, she just heard some clicking sounds and built it up to be worse than it is

veronica asked if members have looked at lasik stating she got lasik done after her cataract surgery to fix her stigmatism, blemi tweeted she is always told she is not a candidate for lasik
