I AM BLAMED BECAUSE YOU CAN'T HEAR

Hearing is a great loss
Much of it is hereditary
The wife well say,
"Dinner is on the table"
I'm a good husband I do the dishes
"I answer just a minute."
I mean I am in the middle of something
"Can't you answer me?"
I did
Sometimes it can be funny
Especially between her and her mother
They can't hear each other
Mom is "94" they were in the back seat
Next to each other
Hearing aids they heard part of conversation
We had just returned from a family doing
My wife said, "I don't think Rickie likes his new job."
Mother in law said, "He love his dog."
Wife said, "He really hasn't had it that long."
Grandma said, "He had the dog since a puppy."
"The job is in the field where it is a little Yuppie."
"Why when he loves it should he get a new puppy"
"I don't say quit right away give it a week."
"It's small and not big but it is not that weak."
I thought I heard and that's not right
She said, "Can't you hear I said turn right here."
