Sunday night - another weekend done.
I've been doing a lot of visiting lately - friends with a new baby, friend in the hospital, wife's nephew with broken hip, etc. A lot harder than just being around the house or at work, trying to keep up with the conversations.
I've had a few "phantom ear" moments, where out of habit I reach for my ear or where my hearing aid used to be. I know I have bragged in previous posts about how well things were going, and they still are, but I'm definetly getting tired of being deaf. It has been interesting experiencing what it is like to be deaf and I appreciated what others have to live with permanently, but I am so ready to get my cochlear processor and start to learn to hear with it. I remind myself that it will be a challenge and probably a little frustrating, and thus harder than just being deaf in a way, but long term it will all be for the best.
Go Redskins!
