Unable to see but I imagined! Videos from Lizbet

 

This is one time when I really could have done with some audio description. Yes, I knew the general theme of the videos but I was missing the details. The videos were of Auntie Margaret’s funeral at the church and then at the graveyard. I heard music and voices but that was it.

So, I was left to conjure up my own images. Just another day’s challenge.

Frustration! When I pulled out the wrong container


 It never fails and it does not matter how careful I am or how organized I strive to be. Yes!  It’s all about being able to pull out what I am seeking from my freezer.

This day was no different. I thought I was pulling out ground beef but what did I pull out? A container of mashed potatoes.

Not being able to really see what I am pulling out only makes things more interesting and this time my sense of smell failed me miserably.

Engaging and learning: Talking to the painter

This was a very interesting experience for me. I knew that the painter was working in the hallway because I could hear him moving around and smell his paint.

So, I exited my condo and started to walk gingerly down the hall as I had an appointment to keep. He saw me immediately and came sauntering towards me. I did not need to explain that I was vision impaired.

He guided me expertly past his spot and to the elevator, chatting with me as we went. I learned from him that he would be working in the hallway for a few hours and would probably still be there when I returned.

Not a problem.  It was great to connect with him.

A bit nervous! Getting ready to launch my show

 I should not be too nervous about this but for some reason I just am.
I already have 2 podcast shows on the go and this will be number 3.
The difference here is that it is only going to be a monthly one.
That should not be enough to make a difference.
Just me being over anxious.
And, it is a new type of podcast.
All about helping folks to stretch their mental capacities and manage their mental paths.

A wee bit frustrating! Voting for a new Mayor

 This time I have to say that whereas the voting machine proved to be one of the best accessibility devices, it was the fact that I had to muddle through so many names of candidates before I could find my choice.

Nobody’s fault at the end of the day and no different for anyone. sighted or not.

The machine worked like a charm!  The staff at the polling centre was simply wonderful and so very helpful. At the end of the day?  A good experience!

Technology or toy? Maybe a bit of both?

 I often wonder to myself if when I purchase a gadget, is it in the name of technology or is it just a toy?

Not sure how to defend myself but I plead guilty to, at times, purchasing a device or gadget for both reasons. Or, I readily admit that I have done so at times just to get my hands on a toy!

No, I do not consider myself to be frivolous but some may say otherwise. I love all of my gadgets and devices and take good care of their welfare. So, at the end of the day, guilty as asked.

Having fun! Sorting through my package

This was a huge package for me to sort through! Easy she goes and this is exactly what I needed and had to do.

One by one I carefully removed each item. Next I put them carefully aside on my counter. Then I made sure to empty my package.

Next step? I examined each item, discovered what each was, and then meticulously put them in order. This is how I solved my clutter for the day.
