It's been so longs since I've written, my computer no longer has any saved memory of my every visiting my own blog.
Sad.
I almost couldn't remember my password. :-S
Time to rectify.
Hmm.... how to catch up a million years?....
Cutting the details.
Started a new job.
Maybe I already told you that.
Working my new job.
Crazy, busy, officey, overwhelming at times, perfect at others, making me money, improving my language skills times a billion. For those of you who don't know the facts, I'm working in the translation dept. of LDS Church Headquarters. I'm the ASL Supervisor. ASL truly is one of the loves of my life. Just wish I were better at it. I'm responsible for all of the events that need ASL interpretation--anything from an in-house Family History Devotional to General Conference. I don't actually interpret for the events, but rather hire the interpreters, do all the paper work, ensure the quality of the film production (all ASL materials need to be produced visually since the language is visual).
I am also the interpreter for two Deaf employees. They are both wonderful men to work with; however, I must say that this is where %90 of the intimidation of my job came from. I expect a lot from myself in my work, and I've never settled for less than the best, but it's so hard when you feel that your best just isn't cutting it. I was so nervous to interpret the first few weeks, my hands shook like crazy (awful when you're trying to interpret!) and I kept signing really dumb things. Slowly thought the nerves are fading away, and my language skills improve every day.
Although I'm over interpreting, some of my work allows me to dabble in translating as well (interpreting is from spoken to spoken--or signed--languages and translating involves a written form. i.e. taking a song and translating it into another language). This aspect really allows me to thing about the meaning behind things we say all the time, which I love to do. And it also lets me really focus on the best way to sign certain things.
Love it. Just hope I can be everything I need to be in this position.
I've also been swimming in wedding plans. ONLY TWO AND A HALF WEEKS LEFT!!!!!!!!!! I know! SUPER CRAZY. I just wish I could slow down and enjoy two minutes. Luckily, most things are taken care of, it's just the bazillion little details we have left.
What's been so fun is setting up house with Robbie. I seriously think he's gotten into it more than me. Last weekend we had a free Friday night--something we've not had in a very long time. Robbie called me to go over options of what we can do. He said we can either A. go to Ikea and look for some things still on our list or B. go to our house and clean up and unpack some more. I couldn't help but laugh. I thought it was so funny that Robbie wanted to either go shopping or play house on a Friday night. Our house really is so wonderful! And it's going to be even more so when we're both there!!!
Well, that's all I have time for. Maybe I can even post some pics soon!!!!
