Hi Marsha it nice to meet you. I went to school with mostly deaf students in high school. I thought I still remembered sign language until recently when I meet a deaf man from the Internet that wanted to buy some chickens from me. He did not read lips and I failed miserably communicating with him. I could not even read his hand writing so I was embarrassed with my lack of skills.
I also had the same major and minor in college but I never finished school. I got married and had kids never to return. I stayed home with my girls. I still have a 24 year old at home. I raise animals because I enjoy them. There is not any money in it after my feed bills. I have been a huge animal lover all my life. I have also changed my views of many things involving animals over the years. Some people might not like my view. I don't really care. I also see others views because I was wants like that. I think I have grown and they might never see the big picture. I don't judge people by how much money they have. I was raised by parents that where dirt poor as kids but where wealthy do to some good investments at the right time. My Mom was an abusive snob that used money to control everyone around her. I rebelled and chose a more simple life. Money does not impress me and I can't be bought. I am an embarrassment to my mother because I won't live her country club life. Oh well I am happy. Isn't that what matters? My daughter is a vet tech for a small animal hospital. She has worked there for 9 years. My best friend is an animal control officer for 20 years. They both influence a lot of my thinking when it comes to animals. I have heard tons of stories and have seen a lot myself. I remember being in a petsmart during adoption interviews. I was with my girlfriend when we over heard some people being told they did not qualify for one of there dogs do to lack of money. My girlfriend was so mad. She went over and told the person where they could get a dog. She later told me they adopt many dogs to the homeless. I also know some homeless that take better care of there dogs than some people with money. They also need a dog for unconditional love. A dog knows love not your bank account.
