One of the challenges of blindness for me is keeping track of things! I know a place for everything and everything has a place . . . but what if you can't remember where you put it!! For example, this cute little watering can was missing for 20 minutes while I searched every flower bed to find it -- it is a little difficult when the vision is going . . and also the memory!!! Cricket is fabulous as a guide at 'find the door', 'find the car', 'find the elevator', 'find the escalator' but is not responsible for helping me find everything I lose such as the watering pot! Funny story: one day when I was mowing the lawn - was called in the house for something and came back out and spent a long time searching for where I had left the lawn mower in the front yard!!
