Snowed in with a Samsung and a Dragon

Where are the steps?


Finally....Grandma's Chocolate Chip Anisette Biscotti
 Three weeks ago my daughter asked me if she could have a camera as her Christmas present.  I agreed and we shopped for a camera with all the necessities. It looked pretty good and since I lost mine, I decided to get the same camera.  I thought she could teach me how to use it quickly, and I would be on my way snapping photos and taking videos. No such luck....too little time and too much social life interrupted my promised instruction.  Here I am snowed in like the rest of us with a blog to write, website information to create, a dance routine to practice, a camera to figure out and a dragon to slay.

Yes....you read correctly.  My children gave me a great writer's gift.  It's called a Dragon and it's a voice recognition program used by writers.  It recognizes your voice and gets your thoughts down on paper faster than you can type.  I imagine this will be wonderful for those...wake me up out of a sound sleep and get the idea onto paper.....kind of moments. 

After all this is done, I am going back up into the mountains where the snow covers the landscape and my characters are in chaos. Wish me luck....I'm exhausted already!

Good News!  My son's friend helped me figure out the camera.  Scratch that one off the list!
