Do u have AIM?? Also did u know about this site lol www.j.mp/e37Mjh it actually works they mailed an iphone to me for free yesterday I'm getting it this week

No, I don't have AIM. I have my hands full with so many other sites that I communicate with others through, I don't think I could handle another! I'm fairly happy with my current cell phone, so I don''t need a new iPhone, thanks.

Ask me anything

What's your favorite quality about yourself?

HHhmmm.... tough one. I would have to say my integrity. If I make a promise I do my best to keep it. I've been feeling guilty lately because I haven't been able to follow through with a few promises because I'm having vision issues, but I intend to complete them as soon as I have my surgery to correct my sight problems. I have interviews to finish!

Ask me anything

UPDATE on ME

UPDATE: My vision has deteriorated to the point I can barely read my computer any more, and I can't proof read my blogs. So, I'm going to be on here less and less until after I get my cataract surgery done. Then I'll be back with a passion! I go see the doctor to schedule the surgery next week. =D

"Fireflies" in ASL

I know I've been out, I'm still getting my strength back up, but I found this video and just had to share it.  A YouTube user that goes by ChrisCalifornia does these great videos that are creative, eduational, and entertaining!  I hope you love it as much as I do.  For me, sign language is beautiful as dance.  =D

Here is Chris' version of "Fireflies" by Owl City with his interpretation and translation in to American Sign Language.

Have You Missed Me?

I apologize for not being on to post anything recently, but I've been sick as a dog for a few weeks now.  I had to interrupt my sick time to speak out on the Tuscon shooting, but other than that I seem to be doing a lot of sleeping, coughing, sneezing, and generally feeling sorry for myself. =D

I'm beginning to think I'm going to have to go to the doctor about it, but I promise that as soon as I can regain my concentration I will be back to resume interviews, exchanges with all of my friends, and bringing updates on Gabby Giffords and the ABC advice guru contest.

Thanks for checking in on me! I'll be back!

Congresswoman Giffords Shot in Tucson, Innocent Child Died

I'd like to open with offering my deepest, sincerest sympathies to the friends and families that lost somebody in yesterday's shooting. Especially the family of Christina Taylor Green.

Christina Taylor Green, Washington Post

Little Christina was born on September 11, 2001, just two months before my own daughter. So for me, her death is two fold. She was one of the 50 miracle babies born during the nightmare that changed the shape of our nation. For her life to be cut short feels like an attack on our survival after that great tragedy. Was that the intent? I doubt it, but that is still how it feels to me.

The second part is the death of a small, innocent child. A child just like my own. Had I not been able to give my daughter a hug and kiss last night I don't know that I would have been able to get up this morning. For me, focusing on the adults that were the focus of the attack will be difficult, because an innocent child was caught in the crossfire.

This attack was focused on Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ). Was it because she is Jewish? Was it because of her political views? Only time will tell. But one thing we can be fairly certain of is that it was because somebody, or a group of somebodies, fed into this man's pre-existing mental illness.
