1) why do you love send christmas cards so much
for me,,being away from America , getting loads of Christmas cards, makes it just a little bit less home sick for me, in the USA, Christmas was a BIG deal, Kim tries to make it as big as possible even if it is just for the two of us ( his parents have not celebrated Christmas for over 25 years ) and i am away from my family ( we do call every one my mom and my son and my bro ) So the Christmas cards are a super duper bonus for me
2) what made you pick Holland to live, did you meet Kim first and then move or vice versa
I met Kim on line back in 1999. we met for the first time June 2000 ( he flew over to the USA to meet me...my son drove me to the airport to see my IMAGINARY FRIEND lol ) Kim flew back to see me every month for 9 months, then I flew over and visited for 3 weeks , then flew back in August 2001 stayed the whole summer, then Oct 4 2001 I moved to Holland, only because Kim has a very good job in Holland . I have always been the adventerous type so this has been one heck of an ADVENTURE !!!!!!!
3) If there is one place you would really love to visit, where would that be? Tuscany..
4)Do you like to know what you are getting for christmas or do you like surprises? Surprise me ,,,,even tho I gave Kim a WISH LIST,, I never know what I will get on the list,, so far hes been really good about picking out what he thinks I will like, last year he threw the list away and just waded in with out training wheels, he did a good job too LOL
5) what do you like most about Christmas?the cozy warm feeling, really its hard to really define what I like the most ,,
6) What are you getting Ben for christmas and is he going to be with you this year?There is another little boy now his name is Milo, Ben is a big brother now,, Ben got a big leggo set , a car garage, and loads of small things ,, his little brother, loves cars that makes sounds, he like ambulances and fire trucks,, so he got some of those and big soft building blocks,, no we will not be together

Does Kim peruse SoapBoards?
nope but hes seen some of the posts,, hes not really INTERESTED..not sure if that is a curse or a blessing LOL
Do you prefer the Netherlands or the States as a place to live
I prefer the USA, only because I can UNDERSTAND what is being said, and I can read things better and quicker, I also miss the SPACE that the USA has,theres just way too many people in this tiny little country ( Kim agrees )

[QUOTE=Winter Wonderland;697379][B][I am not fond of strongly OPINIONATED people..
Jodi, I have a few questions leading on from the above.
1. What did you study at uni?
2. Were you born deaf or did the deafness occur later in life as a result/complication of something else?
3. How did you adjust to living in a different country and a different language being a deaf person? I don't know how many people can sign in Holland but was it doubly hard to live in a new environment and not be able to hear people? How do you get on when you ask for something in the shops when alone?
Thanks CrazyLea
