Music...

Well , havent updated in a bit but some things are still happening! Sunday, I went to a concert and I was able to hear it. Complete with Brass! Now the thing that gets me is this. What I heard was ok but when you throw in all the instruments, things start to get a little funky and I start hearing in sharps and flats. Is this something my brain has to process? I have an appointment on Monday and also meet with the people who are doing the study on my CI. First question Im gonna ask is about my music. Golly I hope it falls into place soon. Its driving me nuts! Ok...moving onward. You know early on I had the debate when I am out and about, what do I carry my disposable batteries or my rechargeable. Well it happened today. I was out doing my thing, nowhere close to home and I go dead. Here I am, deaf as a door nail and I got people to see and places to go. Well...Im still in a quandry as to what to do when I am out and about. Ill figure it all out...and if anyone out there reading this is a CI wearer, please share with me. I just hate the idea of carrying this stuff around with me for fear I will lose it or get stolen. Oh well. The weather has been beautiful and I have dropped the top on my car and been driving around. It just amazes me how loud everything is. Do you know I actually thanked someone for moving her shopping cart out of the aisle onto the carpet where it was quieter! She just laughed and said how loud it was and I had to agree. Saw my neighbor in the grocery store and told her that we could visit now that I had a CI. She has a heavy German accent and we never visited much as I could not hear or or "read" her accent. We've been waving and smiling at each other for 16 years! She seemed happy for me and said we must chat at the fence lol  Thats all for today. Ill update next week after I meet with the docs and everyone...Later!
