When I go into a store to use a coupon, I have read the coupon at home, under two magnifiers, and memorized what it is.  Or if its a preinted coupon I write in big letters on the unprinted side.  When I get to the store I get whatever the coupon calls for and lay them out in the order I have the coupon.    I am wrong on occasion, and  will take the item anyway, My  mistake will not hold up the line.  but most times I can remember.  Today the guy laughed, as i said  ” any one, any four, any one, and any flavor”   and then I couldnt punch the keys on the little machine.  They changed machine.    He did hlep me after I explained I could not see the little buttons or the little screen.  I had it memorized.

But all these websites, and blogs are taking some time.

Hardly seems like anything to complain about.  So it is not really a complaint.  I have a butcher block cutting board, that was cut to my short height.It is brown.  I have used this for 10 years now and I love it.

Lately tho, when I attempt to put peanut butter on triscuts, I have found that I either miss the triscut completly, putting the Peanut butter on the cutting board itself, or cant find them after I make them.   brown on brown on brown.  Kindda funny.

I also have a problem with my two water tumblers, both are purple, of course,, if I put them on the cutting board, I cant see them.  I have learned to remember to put them on the white countertop.

No matter what your disability, It always starts with Denial.  I thought I could still do everything.   Giving up my keys to the car was the final straw -  NO denial after that.

That’s a lie.  I am still in denial over a tap cane.  I use a stick - a big heavy stick.  Its painted white with a red tip.  I use it like a tap cane, but Read more »
