Good morning! Wishing you all a beautiful day filled with sunshine, love, laughter, high energy and positivity. Heat is getting turned off today and the windows will be thrown open. Going to be 78F here today. 🙌🏻 Going to du usual chores today and read, of course.

Be kind to yourself and those around you, hug tight those you love most and smile, you are loved and appreciated! 🤗🫶❤️🫂 #GoodMorning #Braille

Good night! #3GoodThings
1. Read a little bit from three different Braille books today.
2. Got some things ordered to add to our smart home life and I’m looking forward to receiving the new coffee maker and the new smart plugs to replace the ones that only work half the time. Once everything arrives and is set up, both the caffeinated and decaf coffees will be brewed when I get up each morning!
3. Got laundry done, folded and put away.
Sleep well and may your dreams be out of this world. 🤗🫶❤️🫂 #GoodNight #Braille #SmartHome

Good morning! Wishing you all a wonderful day filled with only good things, high energy and positivity! No plans for the day so we’ll take what comes with gratitude. I’m going through bookshare and just found a new-to-me book that sounds really intriguing. 🤞🏻

1. Finished two chapters in Braille. 🙌🏻
2. Finished Ocean Light by Nalini Singh. Yeah, I’ve read it multiple times but I’m going to listen to the entire series before the new book is released in July.
3. Hubs worked late today but he finally made it home safely and doesn’t have to go back to work until Friday. Hopefully by then, the severe weather will be finished. 🤞🏻

1. The smart power strip arrived, it is set up and everything is plugged in! Now all we have to do is say “Turn on exercise bike” or “turn on treadmill” and not have to scrunch down and squeeze to the switches! 🙌🏻
2. I read 1/3 of another Braille book today. It is a short book with only three chapters. Not to the end of chapter 1 yet but I’m a third way through.
3. The sun was shining most of the day and I took advantage of every opportunity to sit or stand in sun coming through the windows. Snow will arrive 3-4 AM and will stick around until it turns to rain.

1. Finished a chapter in Braille. Feels good to be reading again. 🙌🏻
2. Did a little better on my distance this evening with exercising!
3. Am working very slowly on a loom knitting project. I’ve discovered if I do a few rows each night, it does not irritate my shoulder. Slow and steady wins the race!
Bonus: My Wildcats won their basketball game!

1. Finished the work in my #Braille library and cleaned up my file with the titles and synopsis of each one. 🙌🏻
2. Today was Friday for hubs so he is home tomorrow.
3. Spent ten minutes on the exercise bike and ten on the treadmill. Rode 2.21 miles in the ten minute stretch. Walked less than a mile on the treadmill. Things will get better as we build up our endurance again. Hubs, of course, did better than I.
Sleep well and may your dreams be out of this world. 🤗🫶❤️🫂 #GoodNight #Exercise

This is beautiful! 🤩

Martin Kunz, director of an institute for the #blind in #Germany, created a series of #embossed #graphics of #plants, #animals, & #maps for the students, by soaking & pressing thick #paper into molds, & adding #Braille descriptions.

I esp appreciate this b/c my eyes & brain don't work well together, & being able to see & feel an image at the same time helps me to truly understand it. 💪

Colossal · Turn-of-the-Century Tactile Graphics Illustrate Nature for People Who Are BlindThe library of the Perkins School for the Blind holds a collection of dozens of Martin Kunz's tactile graphics.

To vividly make the natural world available to his visually impaired students, in turn-of-the-20th-century Alsace-Lorraine, Martin Kunz came up with a way of embossing dampened, thick paper with accurate, detailed depictions of plants and animals from around the world to which he added braille descriptions.

My first contribution to #NoonScrolling: the 200th birthday of Louis Braille is being celebrated this year. On that occasion, the Braille working group of the European Blind Union hosts a year-long project, where each day a Braille-related piece is featured. Want to learn about a German man who's learnt 400 poems by heart by reading them in Braille first? They've got you covered! Looking for that Spanish summer hit of 2018 with millions of Youtube displays that references Braille? OK, that one is a bit far-fetched but still meets the filter so right you are. I love the advent calendar style of this, there is one new story to discover every day. I don't think they would say no to your contribution if you had one still: livingbraille.eu/ #Braille #Blind #Accessibility
