I am fairly certain they do now! I know that courses are offered in visual merchandising in vocational/technical colleges now. But this was 30 years ago, and I was hired as a store's assistant manager. The manager discovered that I had a talent for decorating and allowed me to do a lot of...

Thank you so much! :ty: (you don't think that the bifocals, the gray hair, and the wrinkles give me away?!?!) LOL! I AM a grandmother - six times, so far! LOL!! (I think the one in the middle picture looks a lot like me! Mini-Me! She is 10 years old. And the one in the top picture is our...

WOW! I see some incredibly beautiful and/or handsome people here! What an attractive bunch! This is me, with one of my six glorious grandchildren. and with another glorious grand-darling: I will turn 50 years old this August.

right now, I'm doing a whole lot of NOTHING! (BORED!!!) For a while I was a certified nutritionist while studying to become a naturopathic physician. However, since learning that my daughter is gradually becoming deaf, I have changed course. I would LIKE to be trained to be a 'terp...

I feel bored, lonely, and isolated, ALL THE TIME! I have been unemployed for years now. I have no car to get to a job, and no job to afford car payments. So, I sit at home, all day long, bored to tears and frustrated to death!! I'm very isolated, without a way to leave my home and engage...

I've seen the rounded 9 hand used in a forward/backward twist. the motion is repeated a couple of times to demonstrate the linking rings.

COMPASSION is of the heart, and the heart communicates more clearly than any other form of language - whether oral or gestural. Go into your life led by your compassion and it will take you wherever you want to (or are meant to) go! MUCH SUCCESS to you! (Blessings!)

*timidly* Isn't it the 5 interlinking rings?

Ah, okay! In that case, my daughter's two children DO have individualized education plans. And they are THRIVING in the mainstream school because of them. Thank you so much for CARING and RESPONDING! I really appreciate you!

Yes, they are hearing, but they do get very hoh when their ears are full of fluids. We seem to have a gene in the family for bad sinus/palate/nasal/ear structures. Various members wind up having some sort of reconstructive surgery for any or all of the above. I don't think he knows anything...

Hi! I'm new here too. I also had a question about the capitalization (or lack thereof) of the word, deaf. Here is the link to the thread regarding that question. Hopefully the answer will be clear to you upon reading it...

1) hatred 2) violence 3) cruelty 4) bigotry 5) rudeness Instead of these, why not try R E S P E C T ? !

Thank you! I didn't recognize the manual alphabet, either. You've cleared it up for me!

THANK YOU ALL so much for your very warm welcomes! It's such a pleasure to meet such wonderful, amazing, inspiring people!! I think my daughter is the one who told ME about this site, so hopefully, she is planning on joining herself, too. :D

my son's children have had various surgeries to improve their hearing - tubes to drain fluids, etc. At this time, none of them is considered to need any special accommodations. They will be monitored for future hearing loss, due to my daughter's gradually increasing deafness.

Welcome, Ben! I'm new, too. I hope you find the support and encouragement you need here. They certainly have been kind to me.

thank you for the reminder! it's on my to-do list for about 10 days from now!!
