Feeling calm knowing the boys and I are off all week from school/work.... yay!!

Never thought of doing that but it's a holiday with families... The person below me is not afraid of earthquakes.

<----single and loving it!! No compromising and doing what I want to do on my time!!

<------is not crazy about red as it's a constant reminder of my mentally ill exhusband. the person below me loves wine

I am feeling lost... where am I? Actually just frustrated at this point but the wine is soothing my frustration. Why can't some people just learn to be nice and civil? That is something I will never understand.

i'm drinking wine and checking AllDeaf out after months of not being in here.

My point exactly.... the big fat CEOs know what make people tick. If we just say "nah, I'll buy the tv on sale on another time (sales occurs frequently through the year), imagine what the CEOs will do. I would not go for the cheap sale on holidays... maybe few days after the holidays (never...

SEE is a tool for English, not a language of its own. ASL has its own grammar and syntax. English is an audiory language. ASL is a visual language. With SEE, the concepts/contexts do not get messages across clearly. If one wants to get the concept/contexts to another person, using ASL will...

Instead of complaining about it, do something about it. Don't go shopping on Thanksgiving Day. It's that simple. If many of us boycotted shopping on the holidays, then the big fat CEOS might just realized we're smarter than they are.

Now that's nice! THANK YOU!! It helps ALOT! :ty:

Maybe this is me being a duh head but how do I check posts made by me to locate my posts?? I am having the same problem which is why I don't come in here often. I get lost among all these postings. It's overwhelming. I don't have all day. I have a life outside of AD. :D

ummm...interesting... I'll keep that in mind when I see the audio tomorrow for some adjustment to the loaner hearing aid. I just realized I am using the Phonak. My audio thinks the Oticon might be better for me but they don't have a loaner in that brand. I rather try it with a loaner before...

I am in the process of getting a second opinion. What you said made alot of sense. I was born deaf but had always heard speech sounds and the high/low frequency sounds. For years, people thought I was hearing and from another country. Ha! :lol: but I'm proud to be :deaf: I am checking...

That makes total sense. Would the new sounds especially when loud, trigger the ringing sounds? I have to keep the setting low otherwise the ringing sounds would begin. I just had the high frequency programmed. We will see how that goes. The auddie said she found a hearing aid that's close...
