Had to turn my hearing aids off during the night.  To do that you place a magic wand that comes with the implants(a two inch magnetic gizmo) in your ear canal and let it beep twice.  This morning to turn them back on I went through the same process except with only one beep per ear.

At 10:00 I’ll try them out in our water aerobics class.  All I can’t do is immerse my head under the water.  Showering, washing my hair, etc is okay with the Lycra implants.  Later this afternoon I’m going to a movie and expect to hear the dialog clearly.  The acid test will come on Sunday:  will I hear what the preacher is saying?  Most of the time for the past 2-3 years I’ve retrieved on bits and sometimes chunks of his sermons.
