So I had a grand time with the evils last night. We went to Tim Hortons and made asses of ourselves... fun times for sure. We hung out with the family/youth worker, and he bought us coffee. The evils were their normal selves.... and underneath it all, I waited for the other shoe to drop.... so when it didn't, I forged ahead and told them what has been on my mind.... I told handidart already, and she is pretty supportive, even asked me what age she had to be to start working (cuz she knows she won't get diddly from me if I do this)...
So I told his majesty as well... that I want to go to College to take the ASL interpreter course.... that's a HUGE undertaking, and yet one that the more I think about, the more excited I get... the worker seemed somewhat shocked by my desire and so asked me a lot of questions... at first I felt like defending myself, but then I showed the kids and he some signing... just simple "see spot run" type stuff, ie: my name is... I have two children, one boy his name is, one girl, her name is.... our family has a dog, her name is Tiny.... he was pretty impressed... I have been learning through online for 6 weeks.... and I can hold my own with a single, or maybe 2 deaf people.... Straight up, on Friday I went to a deaf social... THAT was a bit of sensory overload... for positive...
So... we shall see.
Other than that, the visit was sweet, and reminisce of the evils being my "KIDS" making faces, joking, talking inappropriately... I realized it has been 6 months since we did a "no outside forces" dinner... I sure miss them...
but DON'T TELL EM.
