I am quite pleased I discovered this tool on Word because while some of you know I have arthritis in my hips, lower back and neck in the last month I have been experiencing a lot of pain in one of my fingers, which inhibits my abilty to type and those of you who know me know i am a writer at heart. So I am pleased that if my fingers cease up that at least I'll be able to write something - so long as my mind doesn't cease up too. I dictated about five pages today and while it's not perfect esp when it comes to punctuation it has to be seen as a tool in progress. Good news for me and others like me.

Oh man, you're gonna have to deal with that stupid arthritis one way or another. After all, you've got a babyrah to chase after! I've know folks with arthritis, and it really sucks. Not as bad as cancer, thank God, but if it's alright with you, I'll keep my chronic sinus infections, and you can keep your arthritis. This reminds me of when I talk to my friend back in the USA. We always start off with a discussion of our latest aches and pains. Guess I'm officially an old fart!
lol yes it does often come down to that. Makes me look good as a new father at 50 (says a lot about me :) ) but with age comes more aches pains and difficulties. At one point a couple of days ago the finger joint was so painful I was wondering what it would be like to cut the my finger off (of course seriously I wouldnt do this but it would get rid of the troublesome joint).
I had my first kid at 50, and my second at 55. I'm not gonna lie; I feel kinda bad for the second kid, because he is an active sports enthusiast, and I'm just too darn old now to play with him the way he would like it.
