  1. This is what I said back then. I still think that is a possibility.
  2. Costco hearing aids are $1400 dollars so figure that into whether insurance covers or not. Also, they service them for free.
  3. Until these folks wear a "go pro" I will take all their postings with a grain of salt. We don't know what goes on the rest of the time. They post what they want their "people" to see. IMHO
  4. Could be one of those fitness rings that tracks heart rate, etc.
  5. https://voaed.com/sister-wives-christines-shocking-past-revealed-appeared-on-hbo-before-landing-tlcs-show-with-kody/
  6. The least interesting of all their characters. I wish they had someone like Fiona's character as lead, someone with "spunk". Is it the actress or the scripts/directing. The straight face, emotionless except when she looks longingly into the distance, etc. And where in that tiny house does she keep her copious wardrobe?
  7. Maybe the writers will give her another go with Nathan, when that doesn't work drag it out and a handsome stranger gallops into town and sweeps her heart away.
  8. I love that book and attended a presentation by one of her associates many years ago. Very powerful.
  9. I read an article that the new writers knew from episode one of this season that they knew there would be no wedding and thought this ending would give them many more creative opportunities going forward. I think they are going to add Nathan to the mix but not sure how that will turn out. The Elizabeth character is the least interesting and has the most airtime. and what's up with them all having so many clothing changes, no dirt, no rainy days, no manure in the streets. So much like real life back then, right?
  10. I don't have feedback from mine. It took a minute to get used to them. I thought I had a quiet car and that clocks didn't tick anymore. Plus Sweet Son kept telling me I was missing out on conversations, which I was. Worth it to me any break in time. I have had them adjusted now and then and different domes put on (the part that goes in the ear, the rest is behind, which can be matched to skin or hair color) but always free from Costco. I don't myself understand why someone would want to put that limitation on themselves? Would they not wear glasses either? PS I am almost 80, so elderly counts for me. Also PS I send my friend whose ENT told her hearing aids wouldn't help, to Costco, where the fellow (who doesn't work on commission) said they would help her and she told me she is very grateful I pushed her there, because now her grandchildren don't mumble anymore!! Also, I got them when I was around 60 and probably needed them before then.
  11. You will need a membership, they will do a hearing test, and they are real hearing aids just much less expensive. You don't just walk in and buy off the rack so to speak. Most Costcos need an appointment for the hearing test and evaluation. Costco doesn't work on commission so no upselling. They give you 6 months to try them out and can return after that. I think that is what you should expect, having done it more than once and sending several friends there. One had to buy the membership, but, it is worth it. The others were already members. I don't understand the resistance? Would you wear glasses if you had to? Edited to add - my brother had temporary hearing loss from fluid in his ears and bought "amplifiers" aka cheap hearing aids from Amazon. They just made all the noise louder and he couldn't hear conversation any better. Plus the microphone attached made me unable to understand his speech. Please talk to the hearing aid folks at Costco.
  12. Costco gives 6 months to decide and return no cost. Also if you lose one or both within the first 6 months they replace for free.
  13. If you have a Costco go there. You need a membership but worth it. The professionals are licensed and don't work on commission. Next to the VA Costco is the largest seller of hearing aids. Major brands are labeled Kirkland. They will give you a hearing test free and make recommendations and won't pressure you or upsell. Maintenance and checkups are free. I have them. They are Bluetooth so no EarPods necessary. I sent more than one friend and they couldn't be more pleased. I don't work for Costco. If you don't correct correctable hearing gloss your brain will forget how to hear down the road. My 75 year old brother just went through sometime similar and he had tubes put in his ears by his ENT which helped a lot. He is going to Costco for a hearing test on my insistence.
  14. All I can think of is, well, it was "Live" when they taped it!!
  15. I guess it is good when we are glad we are "only" or a "sibling" because that's what we are. It's sad because it can't be changed, either way. I was always grateful for my two younger brothers. Sweet Son and his brother are close in age and were very very close from the beginning til Sweet Son died. Brother misses him every day. Not to say any of these relationships are always sunshine and roses, and there are disagreements, but, we are all willing to get past things that come up and here we are.
  16. And maybe the parents don't want their children to like being around other than family members. They might ask for more of that. Who knows where that could lead????
  17. People can be idiots some times. I like to do things without Mr lookeyloo and that also gets comments that are idiotic.
  18. that is very sad. I hope your niece tells her aunt she wasn't privy to that arrangement and is not bound by it.
  19. Somebody (can't remember who) said to these kind of folks life begins at conception and ends at birth, meaning - y'all know...
  20. Any of these folks who went into a trade and wanted to help more than their own kind would need to be licensed with the awful government. And probably bonded and insured. And we know that's not happening. If they each learned a different trade and kept it all within their ranks it could Be useful. And maybe dangerous. But then Jesus.
  21. We are in Mexico with family vacation with Sweet Son's brother and family. He and daughter in law and granddaughter (age 20) watched the Duggar thing like we did - to snark. So we talked a little about it here. Well last night I had a vivid dream that I went to visit Joy and Austin after little Gunny's birth. It was the most pleasant dream experience. They were happy to see me, even Austin. And I guess they knew I was a Jewish grandma who had a gay son. But we visited, I admired the baby, Giddy and Evy were sweet and normal and Austin gave me some garlic he grew. Then I got in my car to go home and woke up. Oh also we had beach pictures made on request of daughter in law (who is the daughter I never knew I wished I had) and two were of me and Mr lookeyloo "kissing". All I could think of was how it it looks in the pictures - like Derick and Jill. Because we Were on beach with family watching and didn't want to go "all the way" so I guess it is possible they like each other different in private. We do.
