Yes, SRS, I did use Dragon for that earlier posting. I had to edit it a tiny bit, but it's getting more used to my voice and pronunciations and I am pleased with its accuracy so far.

I went to exercise class yesterday and lasted the whole hour again. That felt good. I also had a 40 min. session with the hand therapist and I drove myself there and home. That's a first in about two months. I did have to have Roger meet me at home to unload the oxygen and stuff. It was heavy and I was pretty wiped out.

Morgan came over for supper last night. He was all excited to tell me about science class and how he learned to make bridges using rubber bands and straws. He also took the role of teacher and demonstrated to me how he'd learned to draw 3-D images including a box which I showed him how to do a long time ago. I think he was too young at the time and didn't remember. He'll be eight years old in about three weeks and is growing to be so mature. It's hard to believe it's been that long already.

The pulmonologist who saved my life earlier this year sent me a letter that he is closing his practice here and moving to the front Range of Colorado as of November 30. I have a follow-up visit with him on Friday and shall tell him as far as I'm concerned he cannot go! I knew his wife was unhappy here but I'm really sorry to see them go. He's my kind of doctor: brilliant, caring, completely accessible, directly, and one of the best of the medical professionals I've ever known.

Not much else to report around here, except I love my new haircut. Still reading along and applaud you all.
