[blparent] finally

[Veronica Smith]

Finally tomorrow I get to demonstrate my stuff in gab's class.  I have
wanted to give them a blindness presentation since the beginning of the
year, but the schools now have new rules.  First you have to be certified to
be at the school.  This means I had to get my picture taken and they had to
do a background check.  Yeah, I passed and am ready to go.  Then I had to
wait for the  winter break to be done and then I had to wait for the classes
to get back in the swing.
Finally it is my turn.  Now I can't find my bag.  Sheesh!
I packed a print-braille book, a measuring tape, a spice bottle that is
labeled in Braille, my talking kitchen timer, some colonel books to hand
out, some braille cards for all the kids,  a measuring cup and some blocks
that Gab used when she was just learning.  
I will also take my cell phone and let them listen to the address book but
they may not touch it.
I usually take my Braille 'n Speak, but it quit talking a few days ago and
will not come back to life.
I will tell them about my computer, the buttons on my stove and microwave
and how I tell what clothes I am wearing.  Shoes with ties is  a must, as
they always want to know if I can tie my own shoes.
I will tell them how I identify my shampoo and conditioner and I will take
my make-up that I have marked so I can tell which is eye shadow and which is
blush. (girls like this)
 I will also take a cookbook in Braille and tell them about all the
wonderful things I can make.
Am I missing anything. v
