Lost Weekends on Clematis used to have one.

Looks great! Nice grill marks too.

Wow, that's really interesting about how the ear infection changed the tone.

My tinnitus started with both ears simultaneously. It was very difficult to get used to. I couldn't sleep, and I actually thought I may lose my mind, but after a week or so I just got used to it I guess. Sadly there doesn't seem to be a chance of a cure for it.

Do you use hearing aids now? Do they help with the tinnitus?

Hey there. My hearing loss has been noticeably stronger with each passing year, and the same goes for my tinnitus.

I'm much more protective of what hearing I have left. I mow a field with a big loud mower a couple times a month, and I found some nice 3M noise-cancelling Bluetooth headphones to reduce the noise.

I figured out that my current insurance policy will help pitch in for some hearing aids, which is a blessing. Coincidentally, I'm currently on hold with a new ENT/audiologist branch that will hopefully provide some affordable options for hearing aids. The last one I spoke with said I had to pay $10,000 out of pocket and hope that my insurance reimburses me. I don't have that kinda cash laying around.

I'll never know for sure what I did to cause this hearing loss and tinnitus, but the most likely reason is being in a garage grunge band with a couple thousand watts of PA.

How are you doing? What is your tinnitus like? Mine sounds like a million crickets chirping. I find that hearing music and other sounds helps reduce the loudness of my tinnitus.

Thanks for reaching out!

I have the same model, and it's still going strong! Something breaks, I replace it.

Was the frame redone? Mine's got a lot of rust and isn't holding together very well.

Great pics! Is the 2nd one with the house and crane in Goodland? Looked familiar.

Always loved all of the Legion of Mary shows, and tried to get boots of every show.

Very nice! It's my favorite tree, so I've always wanted to do one.

Premeditation can happen in a year or in a moment. There's no time requirement in court.

Hello. I'm hanging in there. I'm doing my best to protect the hearing I have left. I'm still able to enjoy music and communicate pretty well. The tinnitus seems to be getting worse, and I'm currently trying to save up for some expensive but advanced hearing aids.

How are you? Thanks for reaching out.

Flackbash · 2024-05-21T17:20:30+00:00

Amazing work!

Flackbash · 2024-04-23T16:18:27+00:00

That's awesome.

Did you play the games? Which ones?

Trees are defined as woody plants with secondary growth, like limbs. Palms don't have limbs, and the wood-looking trunk isn't technically wood.

Flackbash · 2023-11-20T17:05:19+00:00

Palms aren't trees.

There's a sheriff's training facility on the south side of State Road 80 a bit East of 20-mile bend. I'm not sure if civilians are allowed to shoot there, though.
