This line of thought makes me happy that my feelings towards "buck musk" range from they smell nice, to they smell okay in the fall. Does not mean I want to get peed on though, and sometimes my family does not want to ride in the car with me or let me into bed if I forget to change AND wash with the special soap or degreaser.

My oh my..it's loud out there....roosters, donkeys, goats, cows ...and Mel barking :ep:hide....this is going to be a adjustment for us all:hu
DH was recently been “gifted” with a pair of hearing aids. It has taken a while to figure out how to put them in and adjust the settings. We tried going to a local hearing aid store, that sells that brand. When they thought he had bought them new, the charge was $90. When they realized he didn’t buy them, all of a sudden, the charge went to $350!!! :ep :eek: HUH??? What changed? We already determined they fit. All he needed was help figuring out the settings. :duc That appointment got cancelled REAl fast!!!

So, after playing with the aids and settings, they are working fine . . . Sans $350 charge. :duc

So,, now he is getting used to all the noises he hasn’t heard in a long time. . ... the keys banging on the dash, of the truck, (as we drive down the road), the guineas in the yard (with their INCESSANT CACOPHONY), rooster’s crowing, the clock ticking, the sounds of trucks coming up our gravel road, and high pitched voices of some women on TV. He says he is finally starting to get used to it though. It has DEFINITELY been an adjustment.

ETA: But, at least now I don’t have to talk louder and repeat myself, and he hears what I am actually saying, and not some off the wall weird conglomeration of words. :lol:

Well my custom plug for my deaf ear was $75.... my hearing aid was $3500...it has to be particular one due to my one sided hearing
:ep YIKES!!! :ep

We had heard they could cost that much or more! That is why we were thrilled when these were given to us. However, there was no guarantee they would fit or work, as there are so many shapes and sizes of ear canals. So, we were thrilled when, after playing with them for a while, DH was able to get them to work. No thanks to that hearing aid place. :duc If they hadn’t gotten greedy, they could have at least gotten $90 dollars from us, to check them out. They already had a hearing test, that we had paid $125 for a couple years ago. We just couldn’t pay the $5500 they wanted for hearing aids at that time. :duc :somad
And of course, insurance doesn’t pay for hearing aids!
:rant :somad :duc :somad :rant
