Well, here I go again. This will be my 3rd try at the Dragon Program - the program that will type for me if I ever learn to use it well. I flunked the first two versions. Yup - FAILED! In fact about 4 months ago I gave up using it because I was out of help minutes. You are allowed 90 days of help from the date you install the program.
This is Version 12 and supposed to be new and very improved., or so the salesman said when he called. What sold me was that I get 90 days of help again and this one will type in Twitter, TweetDeck, Gmail. without having to use that stupid drop-down box first then telling the program to paste it into whatever program I'm using. Now if only it won't give me problems with the computer.
Because of my past history of not learning it well, I'm locking myself in my office from this coming Monday morning until the following Saturday or Sunday, depending on my progress. Last time around I gave everything else priority and gave learning Dragon left over time. This time it is going to take priority over everything except doctor appointments or other scheduled appointments. That means I can't read blogs, can't get on Twitter, Can't help Mario with his blog or help him read his blogs either. I'm determined this has to be given priority.
I hope you will understand why I am not visiting. I will resume everything on Monday January 28 - back to normal. Hopefully by that time I'll have ironed out all the bugs between Dragon and my computer, and learned to use the program better than the last two times. I simply have to make this work for me as many days typing is extremely difficult and time consuming with making corrections or letting all the errors go through because my hands are tired from being at the keyboard.
Thanks for reading, and I hope you come back again in a week or two when hopefully I'll be dictating the blog!
Mary
