Boy, time does fly. I haven't posted anything for weeks! I told you not that much exciting goes on in my life! I start school tonight. I'm in my fourth (and last) ASL (American Sign Language) class. I started taking ASL to help me keep my brain sharp as well as my hand/eye coordination. You see, this comes in handy for two reasons. First. I'm getting to the age where CRSS comes into play. You know, Can't Remember Sh** Syndrome. The other reason and the more valid of the two although I didn't put it first was that Multiple Sclerosis can (and usually does) mess with cognitive thinking. I'm not a crossword puzzle person and Suduko, well, let's just say my brain doesn't work like that. Besides, what's more productive, completing puzzles or learning the second most popular language in the US? Surprised that ASL is the no. 2 language in the US? I was, especially given that I live in California and usually think of Spanish as the most popular (which in CA it is). Here's a video of me from ASL 3 telling a story (made up) about how my grandparents (both sides) came to the US and how my parents met.
