You have been through things in your life and that makes you strong. I was excited to see you up at the capital the other day. We will have to get together sometime soon!<BR/>Have a good night!<BR/><BR/>-HeatherDustin, Heather and Gavinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09626608579443866208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6748320268259308385.post-73277295514601259812009-02-14T23:23:00.000-07:002009-02-14T23:23:00.000-07:00Ang, a deaf person (who listens/lipreads has to pu...Ang, a deaf person (who listens/lipreads has to put so much energy into the hard work of trying to understand people. They have to try to lipread, to try to put together what little they hear with what they lipread (lipreading IS HARD work). Hearing people (and people with bilateral cochlear implants!) can just sit back and relax and understand what's being said. You'd never see a deaf person doodling, slouching and listening, it's impossible. They are sitting at attention and deeply focused and working hard! It's cool to function "almost" like the hearing!

I don't want carbonation to be a vice and damaging to my bone densitiy. I LOVE my diet coke and carbonated water! Glad to know you like the carbonated water. Is that how you chase down the caramel? By the way, just sent you a Rolo! :)Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13771135877614419151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6748320268259308385.post-56826071659357088072009-02-14T16:02:00.000-07:002009-02-14T16:02:00.000-07:00On a serious note re carbonation, Chemically the c...On a serious note re carbonation, Chemically the carbon di-oxide in carbonated drinks does nasty things to our calcium levels. Bone density loss is not a good thing as we move into the years beyond 50.

If I ever give up diet coke, I will move over to another carbonated drink, even if it's carbonated flavored water (something a lot of peole hate, but I do like!). Let's pretend carbonation is good for a person ok? Indulge me this once! :)Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13771135877614419151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6748320268259308385.post-78214521555727094672009-02-13T19:04:00.000-07:002009-02-13T19:04:00.000-07:00Another great post, and I can imagine that the pre...Another great post, and I can imagine that the presenter didn't recognize you!
