[blparent] Advice: buying a house

[Jennifer Jackson]

There are people who are blind that do the work on their houses and do all
of the yard work including mowing. If you are interested in knowing more
check out the blind handyman or the blind gardening lists.

I have mown my own lawn, but prefer not to. :)

Finding someone to do yard work isn't easy. Friends and acquaintances want
to help but it doesn't usually last long and you have to go by there
scedules or lack there of and paying for a professional company for yard
work is expensive and umfortunately some don't always do their best work
because they figure you don't always know what is going on. I would like to
live in a world where things are done because you pay good money instead of
finding out that because of blindness you are taken advantage of but
sometimes things like that do happen so we have to be vigilant.I'm not a
pesimist but I've learned to be realistic.
