Hi Jen,  

As you can see, I am very much a newbie.    VERY MUCH.    If you can put up with my being super slow - for now - I would love to chat and get some practice ASLing.

I may be going see my boys today. 

               If I             go see my boys today, I will be in the chat room tomorrow night.  

              If I do not go see my boys today, I will be in the chat room tonight.   

What is your best time of day to chat?  I'll usually check in between 9 PM and midnight.  I'll try to  check in also around your best time of day.  

If you are interested - go to the video chat room and leave a message.  I'll respond.   I usually start my own chat room and limit it to 2 people because I have a hard enough time chatting with 1 person.  Add a second person and I am completely lost.

PS - I know I am very monotone right now, because I have to think of how to sign.  Facial expressions will come.

OOPS - I tried to change my first post and it got duplimicated.  Anyway, I will be out of town today (Sunday) and I will check in tomorrow.  If you tell me when you are most likely to be online, I'll check then and create a Chat Room.

Thanx!

Hi Angelo!
Thank you for the welcome. I'm sorry for the delayed reply. I was at my mom's house out of town when I created my post and then came home from traveling and have just forgotten to come back here. 

I don't know when I will be able to be on with any consistency, but it will most always be at night.

Thank you for the welcome. Nice to meet you!

What I was trying to say is:

Hi Rose,

My son had surgery last week.  I was sick.  It’s been a month since I’ve signed.  You sign late (at night), so I’ll log in late tonight or tomorrow night.   Hope to see you then.

Jen. 

I'm sorry I got your name mixed up.   I don't remember who Rose is now.  I'll try to get on in the wee hours of the night.

Angelo (or you can call me Jack 😄

    • That’s a great reason to start learning ASL. Having a practice partner would definitely help, especially with getting more comfortable with reading signs and keeping up with a real conversation. It’s also nice that you want to learn because you’ve had situations where communication was difficult. Just keep practicing and don’t worry about being perfect at the beginning—everyone starts somewhere. spin mama 
    • You might see a familiar pattern and immediately think you know the answer. Your brain naturally wants to complete the word as quickly as possible. However, tha t first idea isn’t always  dordle correct.
    • Security staff should be prepared to communicate with deaf and hard of hearing visitors in a clear and respectful way. Simple gestures, written instructions, visual signs, and mobile phones can all help when spoken communication is not effective. Improve Event Safety At busy venues, communication becomes even more important. Teams providing Crowd Management Services should make sure safety instructions, evacuation routes, entry rules, and emergency information are accessible to everyone. Staff should know how to gain attention politely and avoid creating confusion during stressful situations. Train Security Teams Basic deaf awareness training can make a real difference. Security officers should remain patient, maintain eye contact, and use clear visual cues when needed. Build a More Inclusive Environment Good communication improves both safety and visitor experience. By planning for different communication needs, security teams can create safer, more welcoming environments for everyone.
