Those expiry dates

For me personally, keeping track of expiry dates on labels and on prescriptions, bottles, and tubes is one of the greatest challenges in my daily life. No use trying to remember it all. I have to find ways to remember and I am always asking for suggestions. For food stuffs, I do my best to arrange them in order of expiry dates if I can, but then again this does not always work and I end up having to put Braille labels on my boxes and tins. It is the same for those little tubes and bottles in my medicine cabinet. I am constantly updating and making sure that I have those expiry dates all correctly labeled.

For a sighted person, it is relatively easy for them to look at the box, tin, can, tube, or bottle. For me, it is more than this. In fact, it is a different process. I have to make sure that I label correctly, then place that all-important Braille label on whatever I need to place it on.
