Tonight I was ready for the use of my new

But it, as most things in life needs to be read more thoroughly to be able to understand its intricacies.
It’s not like getting behind the wheel of a car and just turning on the ignition and going after reading that manual, kidding of course. And so when the day comes I will definitely be, well maybe be, sure I WILL BE better informed and capable.

Oddly enough, the program kicked in all by itself.
And I am sitting before you using for the first time my Dragon, it's miraculous!
I think I am going to love this!
Still getting the hang of it just tried to paragraph, but it doesn't seem to understand.
I will have to read some more information before it does everything I need it to do.
It appears to be capable of allowing my manual intervention to vary it and prevent it from totally taking over.
Reading some of the literature that comes with the program's functions is numerous and until I access that particular information I will intervene in the writing of this blog tonight.
If any of you out there have this program and can give me the Cliff notes on it I will take them.
"You're reading", I said, hubby was reading this over my shoulder and being a backseat driver, Gotta love the guy.
Guess he's getting even for all the years that I had been doing that to him, more often now that I don't drive.

Tonight I was more interested in writing about other things than this program and I will begin to do that now.

Sadly, the news has been keeping us abreast of what's going on in the northern Gulf, and horrifically the pictures being sent back are all to reminiscent of the same pictures when hurricane Katrina hit seven years ago nearly to the day.
We here in Southwest Florida seem to be way the luckier than them and lest us never forget when we weren't. Our hearts and prayers continuously are being sent as well as our volunteers from all walks of life and monies are being collected with the devastation trying to alleviate at least the monetary overwhelming horrors that even a category one hurricane can bestow on an area.

I discovered how to paragraph, simply by saying the words go to the next line twice. I get it confused by just using those words, it wasn't sure what to do and so I have some heavy reading to do and I hope my eyes “pulled out Mrs. Bettis AutoCorrect” this sentence was supposed to be “I hope my eyes hold out” and then I said “this is as bad as AutoCorrect”, ha! Have I got a few for you, Ellen DeGeneres…?
It politely says things like, “please say that again”.

It is very case-sensitive if you say one word wrong it does something entirely different from what you're hoping for and so as I said earlier I will have to study up.

Meanwhile, I will try my hardest to continue with other topics…

Last night, I had a very bad night that is sleep-wise I kept getting these horrible headaches that are on the top of my head and I find myself having to put my neck brace on during the night or getting up entirely. I do have cervical stenosis and brain issues due to the MS, but I have no idea if others experience this sensation; it is quite unsettling. For something so painful to wake you out of your sleep can be frightening. Now Googling these issues have come up with several possibilities and most are disconcerting and others make me realize that the length of time that the problem has existed means it's not so serious after all.

Wonderful techno marvel we have here, all of our computers are capable of being beneficial to our lives and how we use them and use their access to the Internet can be quite interesting. Information is a wonderful thing and again 'knowledge is power', as we all know and have heard redundantly all of our lives but when we misuse it we can get in trouble and so although it is available we must consult actual professionals in all the fields by phone or in person when concerned with health issues. Of course they're very, very legit sites: the Mayo Clinic, the Cleveland clinic, Johns Hopkins, Harvard medical, Columbia medical, etc. you get the idea. Anyone of these can be accessed easily by using the name with .com. And that is where I went to/searched the Mayo Clinic, one of my favs. But not being a medical professional, assuming anything is dangerous, as we all know, as smart as we are, with total access, there are times when a little knowledge is a bad thing. I prove that to myself daily, sadly.

On that realization that everybody already knew, including me, allow me to be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and ask you kindly to count all your blessings and share those overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!

PS I have many friends that take care of animals and love them all and I do so much respect what they do and I am somewhat jealous that I am no longer capable of doing that which I love too...I and speaking of one Gal who has never ever been a plain Jane, since she is way too artistic for that! She knows who she is...and you do too...for I just said her name. I was giving her I suppose a bit of hard time, but it is unfortunately the way I seem to communicate these days…SORRY!
