Can You Hear Me?

I was offered a free hearing check by Bay Audiology and had it this morning. 
Of course, like virtually every person my age, I have hearing loss.  Nothing major, and I'm not concerned about it. The test just sets a benchmark for any future testing. 

I visited a family member afterwards and saw this gorgeous show of lachenalias in the garden. 

We continue to watch the Olympics and thoroughly enjoyed the men's triathlon.  Swimming, cycling, running - each section had its highlights. 
But what a finish!  I'm sure we weren't the only ones cheering these amazing athletes on.

May your home be cozy and comfortable, a haven of peace and joy.

  1. A beautiful header photo Margaret.
    I too have had the regular (free) check ups - for over 10 years now, as when DH was alive he needed their services, and as a spouse I had free checks way back... like you I have some minimal but stable hearing loss.
    Yes, the olympics are quite riveting at times
    Hope you back is improving
    Blessings

    1. Thanks Maxine, the back is improving. Doctor has changed my painkillers and they are helping a lot. Now just have to be patient and let the fracture heal properly. Mxx

  5. I know I should probably have my hearing checked as well. They offer it free at Sam's Club, but it usually busy with a line.
