Sorry, mum, I'm deaf (again)!
The cold is in my ears and sticking for a while.
I don't know how many days I'll have to "suffer" this one out, but it may be a week and some odd days before I can hear the phone ringing over the din of the telly. Yes, I have to jack the volume up to decibels that would bring down planes . . .
. . . I'm taking as much Sudafed as I can without making things worse (ringing in my ears that also increases the deafness for some reason).
I'm enjoying Wife Swap way too much, whilst I stab my fingers with the embroidering needle as I work the stitches in the British bear.
It is loud, I know, when I have the telly on. But, it's lonely to be here day in and day out without the kids with a content (and quiet) doggy. Even if I do keep busy cleaning and crafting between bouts of sitting. It's too quiet. I do not have a radio so I use the music station some times to hear classical music whilst I stitch.
If it's any consolation, I cannot hear the doorbell either (and this one chimes very weird . . . whatever happened to the obnoxious DING DONG!! "come answer the freakin' door woman!" sound? this one chimes like it's time for some candle lit dinner).

Hope your ears are up and running soon...well, maybe not running, but working well. Now you get to tune out the family as the family likes to sometimes tune out the mother!
blessings and healthful hugs,
marcy
Can you hear me NOW?
My mother is paranoid and starts to freak out (really and truly) and leave message after message with each one getting more pitchy and worrisome . . . there were about five voice mails from her this morning . . . I didn't hear the phone at all. So, after finally chatting with her (and I changed my voice mail to ring eight times before picking up; that was the issue) we squared away two things: don't panic straight away - give me 48 hours, not 2, and, no matter what happens, I would not just not answer my phone - even if I'm mad at you (which is rarely ever the case). :)
Besides, as far as being mad at my mum, I really think we are both too old and living too far apart to hold grudges etc.. Love has to win out over every battle - I don't care if I'm wrong or right, just let me love you.
Nice comment above about your mom. Hope you're hearing again soon.
Just checking in on you and can't believe you are still feeling like crap! Accept all for from the loving arms of God...it is not in vain!
Man you have dealt with this ear cold in the head thing too many times since I have had the honor to meet you through this crazy blog world.
"SOUNDS" downright bloody chicken monkey legs gob awful!
oh, poor dear..I pray you will get better soon. Hawaii is supposed to be nice and you were supposed to get to stay well while there...or at least I was hopin.
