Update: Can Anyone hear Me

Well it turns out that the borrowers for tonights signing were
completely deaf and they did not read lips or speak. I anticipated
this ahead of time and brought an Instruction Sheet for Signing with
me along with a big pad of paper. They were very, very nice. However,
patience is the key. When I arrived there was a huge dog who had
a fierce bark and jumped on the screen door at me. Scared the heck
out of me. Of course, they could not hear it and wasn't sure if I should
knock, ring the bell or what. The husband answered the door and we
waited for the wife to get home from work for 1/2 hour. Mind you he
does not talk so we had a nice little chit chat via legal pad and pen.
All in all it went really well. I believe I should have been warned and
maybe even paid a little extra. This signing took 1 hour and 10 minutes and
that is with waiting 1/2 hour for the wife. Normally, this signing would have
taken 30 minutes tops. Every day is a new experience.

P.S. Saving my notes for the Signing Scrapbook!
