C.I. moments still occurring!
« on: March 01, 2012, 09:20:14 am »
One of our local colleges has a very nice, brand new performing arts center and last night went to hear the St. Petersburg Russian Symphony. First time to HEAR a full size symphony orchestra in a LONG time!
The fine tuning has really brought a lot of 'new' sounds out for me.
Really enjoying walking around outside and HEARING the birds chirp and sing and the geese honking as they take off and land on the pond out back!
40 MPH winds yesterday afternoon and I was at the local mall. Outside waiting for my friend to pick me up I heard this snapping and popping and realized it was the huge American flag about a block away just flapping in the wind.
Can't wait to get to the ballpark and hear the sounds of the bat hitting the ball....

Thank the Lord for all he has done for me this past year!

Yes GB, God is good and always looks out for his Sheep. I am so happy for you, we take all of our senses for granted until we lose one of them. I consider our sight and hearing as the two most important ones. I bet you feel as though you were just re-born. I love the sound of chirping birds early in the morning.

That is great news GB
I remember when I got my aids 25 years ago
Found a whole new world
There was so many sounds that I did not ever remember hearing.

Hi GB, Glad to hear things are still improving (excuse the pun), it must be wonderful for you to hear the orchestra and all the other sounds you haven't in years. Hope it keeps up. Good luck GB.

Oh I bet it is sooooooooo awesome hearing all these things, I envy you because we all take hearing so much for granted that we never really listen.

GB, that is great news. I understand how you feel about being able to hear. I got my hearing aids 6 years ago and I know what it is like. If it weren't for all you folks paying your taxes I would not have gotten mine. I got them from the V. A. For all of us Vets, I want to thank you all for what you do for us.
