Man is it May 18th already!!

Sorry folks, don't mean to forget about you. But all these meetings are driving me insane. I am also addicted to Farm Town and that takes all my time, just kidding??!! Anyways on to the important stuff, hearing is going well. I am doing better and better, pushing and pushing but its still too slow. I start speech with one of my speech friends tomorrow so we will see how that goes. Hopefully she can outwit me and make me work, after work!! I am hearing all the things I think I want to hear, environmental sounds are definitely easier for me, its the speech piece that keeps throwing me for a loop. Lisa, put it across to me in a way that I understood but it comes back to that patience thing and I don't have that trait real well. She theorizes that I hear more than I let myself believe!! Meaning is my brain tells me that I need the visual, not like I haven't used it for 39 years or something, so trying to tell my brain that it is ok for me to understand without the LIPS!!! Well, she doesn't think so and wants me to see the LIPS in order to understand all things. So, I am trying to work out a way to work on that but i am not sure what all to do. So, if you have a suggestion, let me know. I go see Allison on the 29th so that will give me more information as well. Still not using my hearing aid though. Well, talk with you all sooner or later.
