[blparent] totally accessible timer

[Veronica Smith]

If I remember correctly, the Braille timer goes in 5 minute increments and
2.5 increments.  I will look, I still have one laying around that Gab plays
with now and then. V

If you didn't have to have precisely two minutes but a guestimate, could you

at a time is what we are to build up to.
