Not every person that's deaf was born deaf. Maybe it's an old habit from before...

That'd be my guess, plus it'd be a bit on the loud side because she wouldn't have the feedback we'd normally get. She may also have enough hearing to be able to hear herself, depending on the exact nature of her impairment.

Loud? She was talking to herself with sign language. She was looking at the blown up calendar and signing her thoughts at the wall in front of her. Pointing at dates, signing some more, making faces, etc. All quite silent.

Edit: I see that I didn't specifically state that in the OP. My bad.

Huh. Interesting. It's strange for me to think of somebody thinking in sign language, since I see it completely as being a representative of English instead of its own discrete language, but I guess it makes sense when signing is one's primary language.
