When you meet a mutual from Deaf Twitter days! @dtbruno.bsky.social
Two people smiling at the camera. Quinn smiles with a large exaggerated open mouth smile. They have short black hair, glasses and a brown corduroy jacket. DT Bruno stands besides Quinn smiling bright. He has glasses, short shaved hair and a short trimmed beard.

I mentor families with deaf kids as part of my work.
This is my second visit with this family and I am in love with the way their stroller is oriented so they can sign to their baby while we walked to the park today.
Quinn’s hand on a stroller handle. The baby carriage faces the orientation of their hand. Making the stroller pusher completely visible to the baby who is not in the stroller. The stroller sits on a grassy field.

I woke someone up in the middle of his nap and he has a “bed face” from sleeping.
I call this his squishy face.
A medium sized golden doodle lays on the couch looking at the viewer. Half of his poodley curls on his face are squished down from when he took his nap.

Starting off my ASL lesson by showing the preschoolers and kindergarteners my pet reindeer.
A laptop with a PowerPoint presentation. It is winter themed and festive. A sign with an arrow reads “REAL PET REINDEER” next to it sits a fluffy golden doodle with an antler hat on.

ITS FOR THE CHILDREN!
But I looked around for about half my lunch break for ones I could use some good classifiers with!
Two books side by side. First book is titled “Super Hero Instruction Manual” by Kristy Dempsey and the second is titled “never touch the grumpy pets”

What about a social media follower with a kitty? Do by proxy kitty followers count?

We gave Levi some (de-boned) turkey and gravy in his dog food tonight. He did the same.

Levi is NOT thankful for hats today.
A golden doodle wearing a turkey hat on his head with a strong look of disapproval. The turkey hat with a beak, eyes and feathers above his head are a strong contrast for his squinting glare. He sports a fall leaf bandanna on his neck.

A small white Christmas tree in the corner of a room. The tree has colored lights with a cool tone and colorful ornaments of various shapes.

Started our ASL Thanksgiving vocab by showing all my students my pet turkey.
A scruffy golden doodle wearing a turkey hat. The hat shows a turkey face on top of the pup’s head, and feathers spread from ear to ear.

Me waiting to find all my mutuals since last year
A tiny black and white tuxedo cat lays her head on a pillow in a large bed. The blankets are pulled up to her chin as she stares blankly with a slightly grumpy looking expression.

I work alongside audiologists now and one of the cool audiologists who signs, has agreed to do impressions for the folks in our deaf office through that single company I have seen glow in the dark from. Since seeing it I can’t stop thinking about it.
A gel-e burst hearing aid earmold with a spider icon inside. The earmold has a photo in the light and one where it glows in the dark showing the spider icon! The tubing is purple, the same color as the spider icon.

We were nervous on how our fifteen year old Aussie would respond when we brought home a 9 week puppy.
Happy to say that they’re buds 🥺
An old white and gray Australian Shepard lays on the ground of a living room. A 9 week golden doodle lays against the Australian Shepard and snuggles into her. He has a blue checkered harness on.

Alright artists show me your range
*starts to sing home on the range*
A screenshot from westartzest on instagram of a scruffy old dog drawn in blue and gray colored pencils. A photo of a Christmas tree with its colored lights reflecting off of the wooden wardrobe behind it. An analog gelatin photo print of a collage of Quinn as a baby. Different elements of their life in china versus America are scattered about. Items such as their childhood dog, their baby passport, a Chinese document, their orphanage and a lucky bracelet gifted to them. A 3d rendering of a manual wheelchair. The wheelchair is half viewed in a normal rendering while the other half appears to show an x ray rendering.
