Yesterday we went down to the children's hospital (CHOP) again for Ellis's two year evaluation and mapping. Today marks two years since his activation of his cochlear implant. He wears a Cochlear Freedom on his right ear.
Yesterday was such a dreary day! We woke up to a blanket of snow that eventually got soaked with rain, becoming a wretched blanket of slush. Since our weather was somewhere between snow and ice, I took Ellis to his audiology appointment via regional rail instead of driving.
In June of 2005 our son, E, was born. E's birth was the bright spot in a very difficult year. In the wake personal loss, regret, and tragedy, E's arrival brought us joy and peace.
Yay Phillies! I must admit, though, it didn't even occur to me to watch the game last night. I think I may have heard that it was going to be played on Wednesday, but it didn't really compute. I was too busy watching Gilmore Girls. I'm up to midway through Season 5. But it is fun to be living in the winning city and seeing everybody be so excited. So. Yay Phillies!!
Wow. What a week. Actually, it's been a week and a half. About the middle of last week, I was looking at a deadline. I knew I had to finish this particular project by the end of the week or so, though I did think I would have the weekend. But for the life of me, I could not get to that project. Whenever I tried, I would be interrupted by some new disaster at my other job. In fact, they owned me for about three days. So by the end of the week I turned to finish the other project.
We spent the afternoon at CHOP today. Ellis had his one year evaluation and mapping for his cochlear implant. The past few times he's been in the hearing booth, he's HATED it, like cried and crawled all over me. Today he was much better, and even cooperated a teeny tiny bit. But not enough to get a really good audiogram.
