Smile, just for the record, I have a variety of "stuff" that I can stick
to
those F and J keys to make them extremely distinct compared to the rest of
the keys, this includes super gluing wooden shapes, bump dots, and believe
me Amy I have a hard time feeling those tiny tiny dots, and I have great
sensativity, have put different dots on my keyboard.
Smile.
take your time, and get them out when you can, smile.

Sorry it took so long but the box is finally in the mail and should arrive
there in a week or so at the latest. I am not sure how it was sent but it
was labeled "Books" and my aide was upset since according to him it cost
more because I had written the word on the box. It has been so long that
I
no longer remember to whom I sent it so will the receiver please let me
know
when they have arrived. I had attached one of those light green forms for
the post office to mail me but it was a new post office and the lady
insisted that those cards were no long in use and I would have to insure
it
if I wanted notification. As I had not put any amount on the insurance
form the aide took that off so I am just hoping it gets there as my aide
was
most concerned with my not spending more money than he thought necessary.
His priorities are not mine as I have had to nag and yell just to get the
box sent and the other boxes have yet to go out. Maybe Tuesday but the CDs
are going out priority mail. The books are labeled books so they will get
there when they get there - sorry.

omsm,
note to those who tell people that they can find the "f" and "j" keys
because of the little raised dot on the bottom center of the key. That
is
assuming that the typist has the physical sensitivity to feel that little
dot. Not all of us can feel it. There are many physical problems the make
it
impossible even to use Braille because it takes a greater degree of
sensitivity to distinguish the letters [number and arrangement of those
dots] than some of us have. I am lucky if i can feel the keys and can find
the three, six, and four sections and can differentiate between the wider
ones and taller ones on the keypad. This is not a complaint, just an
explanation of awareness and sensitivity to the lack of same. Fortunately
I
learned to touch type on a standard keyboard and can see an enlarged print
as I type to make sure my fingers are where I think they are but not
everyone is as lucky as I am so please have patience with those who are
not.
