I think you handled it well by making other plans. Your actions said more than you could communicate it, "You have a life and although you are interested in checking US out, your life doesn't stop for him, at least not at this time". If it were me I would be as casual as possible and see how...

I don't think I've ever met anyone from Iowa. Is is a bit cold for you too right now?

Thank you for the warm welcome. Well hello to the both of you. Is your wife also a member here? I live right outside Rancho Cucamongo about an hour from Pasadena. One of the things I regret is having never been encouraged to learn ASL when I was younger and I learned more quickly. Thank...

Hello. I just thought I'd maybe add a little more to this topic of interviews and surveys. I am an older student majoring in Communication Disorders with an emphasis in Audiology. I am online student for obvious reasons, I'm old and I'm late-deafened. Communication works better for me...

Snow in Wrightwood... Sledding was a blast.. :giggle:

Studying all the material for an Exam on Monday and how I'd rather just relax with the family instead.....

I learned that I need to take a break and relax for a semester for my health and sanity..

I feel for your Mom, it's hard to lose someone and especially someone you were close too. I think your Mom is lucky that she has such a caring daughter who is trying to help her and is looking out for her. You may not see it, but that is a help to her in her grieving. It takes time and I don't...
