Read my lips... Sharing a recent lighthearted experience. I was in a grocery store and I was asking a woman where something was. She pulls down her mask and says, "I am deaf, but I read lips". The panic set in lol. I proceeded to stutter quite a bit and stumbled through the sentence. Inside, I felt bad to challenge this woman further, but she got what I said. Success by both parties involved! Life's little unintentional comedy...
