My new thingee

 Here's my new thingee.  Not the stapler, that's just to give you an idea about the size.  Actually it's a microphone.  Really small and light.  Unobtrusive.  The problem is that I'll lose it!

I have found that I'm not understanding the professor in my class especially when she gives side comments.  And I couldn't understand a lot of a lecture I heard.  My access buddy told me that I could do something about it.  If nothing else, I am eligible for disabled student services (which I already knew).  I talked to the 'hard of hearing' guy and he told me about these little microphones.  I went to the audiology people and bought this device.  For $350.

So, I give it to my teacher and I can hear everything she says!  It comes directly to my hearing aids via blue tooth.  During my small group discussion, I handed to the student speaking and I could hear them.  If I have trouble hearing the TV, I put it down next to it and I can hear it so much better.

Just working on strategies to not lose it.  Dennis put a label on the side with my name and phone #.

I think it's good!
