Irish Creek, Winter Silence

Joe went to town this morning to get his hearing aides, so we're sure hoping that they will help him hear. He said I didn't need to go with him, and I guess if we have questions later we can call the audiologist.

Gina called and we visited for a while. She said Dell had been standing in front of my chair to get her massage, and the cat was asking where I was this morning. I'm kind of resting up today after so much activity. Getting the laundry caught up, and need to get suitcase unpacked etc. A nap sounds good too.

It's another really lovely sunny morning, and the dogs have found some bare grass to lay on instead of the snow. The piles of snow are settling down a lot and some dirt showing through on the plowed road. In the afternoon it clouded up.

Later..... Joe's back and we are celebrating. In a normal voice I asked him if they work and he said yes. No repeating 3 or 5 times. ..... The hearing aides work!!!!!!!!! He has the TV down so low I can hardly hear it. Yippeeeee!!!!!!!!! He said they echo in his head a little but she told him he will get used to it.

My violet suffered while I was gone, so trimmed it up and fed and watered it. It perked right up again.

Awwww........... I just went to check Gina's blog and you have to go there and see it. How Cute!

What a great thing that the hearing aids work so well. If he's asking "what's that noise," I'd be mindful that he doesn't start turning them down!! I'm delighted for you.

And poor Dell ... loved the picture Gina put on her blog!

Also loved the picture from when you visited at your home, and Sparky and Raven were at your feet looking so lovingly at their master. The picture said so much.

Love, Judy
