I made it through the day. Was there
any doubt? It's the getting
through to the other side that
sometimes is hard, but I always manage,
with God's help, to make it there.
Sign class was awesome last night
and I'm really looking forward to
next week. We have a field
trip! We are going to Ft. Wayne
for "deaf, deaf world"
That is deaf people running a
real-life simulation. There are
stations such as a store, hospital,
real estate office, etc. You get a card
to tell you what to do such as
"I have a burned foot and need
a doctor". You have to convey
this in any way possible-without
using your voice! Every time you
get caught talking you get fined
a quarter! I'm going to get some
to take with me, lol. Any person
of any level of sign can participate.
My teacher had had two classes when
she went the first time. I am
really excited about it. If I am
going to learn sign to communicate
with deaf persons I need to learn
the culture as well. They have to
live in our world. This gives us a
chance to live in theirs. I wonder
where all this is leading? I guess I
will have to wait for God's good
time when He reveals it.
Not super happy with this as I
see things I could have changed.
The trees didn't get a good crisp
stamp, but it's OK. I made it
for my ex's grandfather. We were close
until John got sick and then I kind
of lost touch . I contacted
Allen's aunt and got his address as
he is now in a nursing home and have
been sending him cards. I guess
I should get his phone number and give
him a call as well. He's such a sweet
man and always considered me
his granddaughter even when Allen and
I divorced. I love him like my
own grandfather.
