Blind Out Of The Box

Yesterday I reminded everyone that we’re happy to take guest posts, and this morning I got another one. It’s from Gill, and it’s a wee little reminder to sighted people that blind folks do, in fact, have lives, and a bit of encouragement to the blind folks who haven’t quite figured that out yet. Remember, …

No! No! Not Again!

Brother Brad unexpectedly dropped this into my inbox this afternoon. Guest posts like these are always welcomed, especially on days like today where I spend a bunch of the afternoon getting the newly cracked pipe under our kitchen sink fixed and then cleaning up after it. If ever you get the urge to send us …

I’ve Seen It All, Now

Apologies, Elections, Wrestling And A Crazy Cake Lady. What More Could You Ask For?
