Naturally Speaking

When I first started writing on the Whinery, I used a program called Dragon Naturally Speaking.  I ran across my copy of Dragon Naturally Speaking the other day and I decided I would give it a spin again.  In some ways it does make creating entries a bit easier and in other ways it makes it much more difficult.  Either way, I figure I'll give it a try for a couple of days and, who knows, I just might start writing here more regularly again.  One thing that I don't like about using dictation software is that it makes me feel a little stilted or rather, it makes my writing sound a bit stilted.  The other problem of course is that someone else can actually hear what I'm saying as I'm saying it.  Knowing that someone else, unintentionally or not, is possibly eavesdropping on me is slightly disconcerting.

It looks like this is going to be a very busy summer.  Right now, I'm fencing the backyard.  The garden still needs to be planted.  I need to build another fence to keep the dogs out of the garden.  I need to finish painting the eaves and put up the gutters.  Next month, we also have a week-long camping trip and a pioneer trek scheduled.  In July, my oldest son has scout camp and, of course, we have the Fourth of July and the 24th of July.  Let's not forget that I have meetings on most Tuesday nights, Wednesday nights, and I have game night on Thursdays.  Ahhhh, now that feels more like the old whinery that I remember!

Well, I think that's enough for one day.  At least for now.
