[NFB-Blind-Crafters] Successful Saturday

[Slery]

Try a nail file. Mine loved the Emory board but I also cut just the tip of the nail. Surprisingly, our 3 knew what a cat pole was and used it all the time.

We’ve got a good kitty and I hope she sticks around. It’s hard to find kitty cats without their front claws anymore. I’m too scared to clip the nails and the last one we had for a while was a good boy, but all those nails! Everything was a scratching post. No matter what we did.

>> Lucy doesn’t do that for us, but Hunter kind of would. We had to put him to sleep during Covid, which was really really tough. But he was 17 1/2 and probably was more miserable than he let on. Thank you Lord for sending animals into our lives!

>> Thank you, Henry and Terry. I dropped something the other day and really missed having my "seeing eye" kitty. She always came over and put her nose on something I dropped. She did this on her own and didn't play with the item I dropped like most cats. I could even call her and tell her mommy needed help. Then, I circled my finger in the area I thought I dropped the item and she would go touch it, look up at me as if yeah there it is, and then she went on her way.

>> My success is thinking of Cindy’s tenacity in working on her sweater, and following her example.
>> The button band on my sweater is taking longer than all the cable work.  I did it once, then realized it was really too short, so I pulled it out.  I did it again, then thought I’d picked up the stitches on the wrong side and pulled it out and did it again picking up on the other side, only to realize I was right the first time and pull that out.  Now I’ve picked up stitches for the band again.  I’m on the right side, and I have the right number of stitches.  Hopefully nothing will go wrong this time.
