first viavoice entry!



My sister Ruth on TVO

So I have only started to learn how to use ViaVoice but I am already impressed with how much I can do with only a little training so far. Thanks to all of you who recommended this program. I am writing this first bit of Blathering entirely with ViaVoice without using my arms, woohoo!

Editing functions are wonky (hey, this program knows the word wonky) but I am gradually learning. Can't write very quickly using this method yet since I must speak slowly and I'm not yet used to dictating out loud but at least I can write without pain.

I am way way way behind in e-mail right now, but will gradually catch up. Thank you for your patience! :-) cool. My smiley macro seems to work.

Today's Blatherpics:

These are from Ruth's appearance on television when she was interviewed for TVO's Imprint program. She had been up most of the night before because Sara and Annie had the Norwalk virus.




She's using an Inkspot pen in this shot!
