Yeah.  Actually, the weather's been pretty OK.  The weather is definitely not
the problem here.

But, thankfully, we now have a natural gas stove.  Hopefully, that will make
the kitchen more pleasant to be in...

BTW, since I've had my footmouse, my hands have been feeling much better.
And I discovered something weird (I don't know if I mentioned this to you
before): when I use my left hand to "mouse", my right hand hurts!  Weird, huh?
Anyway, with the help of the footmouse, I can avoid the use of my hands for
mouse movement and my hands feel far better.  I am, however, still trying to
get voice recognition going.  I need a better microphone at this point (Dragon
says that it's an unacceptably low quality...sigh).  (My ultimate goal is
to have a Windows machine do the voice recognition but log onto my Linux
machine.  I was told, however, that only having a 266 Mhz Pentium II with
just 80 meg ram is pushing the technology!  Sheesh!)

Take care!
