@rwinney Hey Rachel, and anyone else who hates typing all of this crazy text into Connect, looky here:

==================================================================================================
hi Rachel I was just wondering what kind of computer you have or phone or whatever you type your connect responses into. I just am writing this note to you using dictation.io and I think it works pretty good. does have some trouble understanding me sometimes and I have to delete some things as I go but overall it's not too bad as long as I can talk loud enough for it to hear me. it is sort of like talking to my mother who has hearing problems and understanding exactly what I am saying especially with video chat. ok I'm going to send this to you now by cutting and pasting to a connect post. best to you, hank

PS I have to add punctuation myself
=================================================================================================

OK, that whole thing between the lines was mostly from dictation.io, with a few added periods and a few words corrected that it misunderstood. Have you tried using any speech-to-text software? This is free and I am sure there must be better ones out there (maybe a lot better). I know it would be a big adjustment to use something like this, but even if you did most of it with the software and spent a couple minutes to clean it up, it might make it easier on you in the long run.

But I bet you have already tried something like this and it didn't work for you, right? I can't imagine you didn't think of it by now. They have software available for apple, windows (and probably chrome) computers, or iphone or android phone). Let me know if I can be of any assistance in investigating further. Here to help. Hank
