supporting the determination that the claimant was not disabled pursuant to 20 C.F.R. Pt. 404,
Subpt. P, App. 1, § 12.00A. Finally, it was not error to consider the claimant’s daily activities in
determining that her impairments were not totally debilitating and did not prevent her from
performing significant work activities. See Chaparro v. Bowen, 815 F.2d 1008, 1011 (5th Cir.
1987); Leggett v. Chater, 67 F.3d 558, 565 n.12 (5th Cir 1995); 20 C.F.R. Pt. 404, Subpt. P,
App. 1, § 12.00(C)(2). AFFIRMED.
