I Am Old.... in Me Being Me

No matter what you think or don’t think I am getting old and older as the years go on. The cruncher was when I went to order my hearing aids and I will have them in about three weeks. I am really nervous about having them because now I know my hearing is only going to be getting worse and at some point I won’t be hearing anything.
I talked to my son yesterday and told him I am officially old and he told me that my birthday is in July. I thought that was cute because he is right. And then I told him I will be getting hearing aids and he told me that he had a class mate in grade 5 that had hearing aids and the teacher used a microphone when she was talking to the class so he could hear what was being said. But I do know that people of all ages have hearing aids for all different reasons and not everyone knows that.
The specialists that I went to see yesterday told me that unless I tell people I have them no one will even notice because they are so small and there is only a tiny wire that goes into the ear and it’s hard to see and the part that goes ontop of the ear is also small and will match my hair color.
I have a question for you? if you have hearing aids how long did it take for you to get use to them and do you wear them 24/7? And do you wear them when you are sleeping? I have been told that people wear them all the time so the brain can get use to the sounds it’s missing. I found out that I have trouble hearing some talking sounds and sounds like a bird churping so I figure my hearing loss isn’t all that bad. But hearing aids to me is the same as glasses…you see better with them so I figure I will hear better so that will be a plus.

Onto something else…

Tonights dinner is going to be chicken drumsticks and a fresh vegetable and noodles of some sort. I will be using the airfryer for the chicken. I find everything done in the air fryer so far has turned out perfectly and I like how it doesn’t take a lot of time and clean up is sort of easy.
And then there is the domestic work that needs to get done. and other then that not much.

I need to stop here…
Do Have a great day…
Be Kind, Be Calm, Be Safe and Behave.
