Back at it!

November 4th,  2018

I finally have some time to write on my blog! Yay! Work has been so busy and I have been going to captioned theatre plays at Second City, open captioned movies like A Star is Born (which was really good), celebrating my mom's birthday, running the Hearing Loss Association of America's Chicago Lincoln Park Chapter and taking technology classes at the University of St. Francis at Joliet. Lots going on!

However, I really wanted to share with you what I heard just recently. I have been turning down the volume to level 3 . Level 6 was so loud I found the sounds were so distorted. My audiologist told me to gradually increase the volume so that is where I am at. Anyway, back to my aha moment. I was at the doctor's office waiting of course for the doc. I heard what sounded like a toilet flushing and paper towel roller dispenser. At first, I was like nahhh that cannot be it. However, I heard the same sounds again. I was like oh my gosh I can hear that. I can hear the toilet flushing, the paper towel dispensing and the door closing! i found out there was a bathroom right next to the room I was waiting in . No way had I heard those before and not all in a row. I thought that was really COOL!
