Claimant Carmen Carrasquillo  appeals                      __________            from  the judgment of  the district court  which affirmed the            decision of the  Secretary of Health and  Human Services that            she is not entitled to Social Security disability benefits.                      We  have carefully  reviewed  the  record  and  the            briefs of the parties and affirm the judgment of the district            court  for essentially the reasons  stated in its Opinion and            Order,  dated November 1, 1993.   Because the  Order is well-            reasoned and  sound, we need not repeat its conclusions here.
