Thank you, Alice44! I sure appreciate hearing that, pun intended!
Today, I was riding in the back seat of friends car going to lunch. I normally check out because hearing over the noise has been impossible for years. Today, I suddenly realized that I was understanding the conversation going from the front to the backseat! That was a delightful first. Also, over lunch I was part of a complex set of discussions in a restaurant that was very busy and loud. I didn’t feel my shoulders climbing to my ears, I was able to understand and my body felt relaxed. Another difference, I was easy to know when to interject or answer a question, I could understand!
Sound changes every day, it is still quite electronic. In the beginning, voices were monotonous. Today, noticed I’m hearing differences in pitch and tone. Amazing.
This is a NOISY world we live in, I find myself glad to turn off sound at the end of the day. It’s been a long time since I’ve heard keyboard clicks, water going down the drain, the dryer beeping...
Thanks again, alice44!
