There! Now I Can See.....I Mean Hear.



I am so glad to be able to hear again today! I have been battling a congested ear for several days and it has been such a pain! It started with me NOT being able to hear a single thing and I had a painful pressure in my ear and head. Well, I took an antihistamine and the next day I could hear a little bit. Unfortunately, what I could hear when people spoke sounded a lot like Charlie Brown's teacher but with a higher voice & on a loud microphone! It was really bad and I almost wished that I couldn't hear at all. It only took a few more days to get most of my hearing back. (actually, if I get anymore back, it will be better than before this all started!!) I was thinking that it is a real bummer that we can't see inside our own ears! Maybe we could see a problem? There could be something stuffed in there and maybe we wouldn't know it? I decided I would just snap a shot of my ear to make sure that I wasn't walking around with something crazy sticking out of my ear. I have this crazy love of Q-tips cleaning my ear. Maybe I left one sticking out?? What if I did and people were just too embarrassed to tell me? I needed to check for myself. . . . Nope. . . . Looks all clear to me! I'll just continue on with my selective hearing. . . Oh wait. . . That's my husband, who has suffered with this our entire married life! Funny how that happens! Can you hear me now?

I think you better look a little deeper. I think there might be a lost M & M in there. You know those peanuts never melt!!

I'm pretty sure there has to be a peanut in there somewhere! That's precisely why I didn't do an "up the nose" shot!
