Evening, fellow word snob,

Thank you for articulating a compulsion of some 
of our's, to the extent of which ever might be a 
technological ability to  clean up texts and 
other On-line postings. For me, it resonated 
particularly, a person's On-line presence being 
akin to cultivating a physical presentation of 
which one might be proud, unabashed to wear 
around in the world as we grope for something 
that resembles personal mobility. Particularly 
hard hitting, though, was   your likening sloppy 
texts/On-line postings to an unkempt presentation of self.
Thank you, Mike, for that!

blindness. Just one word-snob's opinion and not a 
judgment upon you but, rather, a general comment.

I think you're coming we did judgmental. I don't 
understand why you need to be that way. I often 
use voice dictation. If I have there's likely to 
be mistakes. I apologize up front. On Mar 16,

It's just bumps into things. I can bump into 
things and eat socks with my vacuum cleaner plus 
good exercise. Why be that lazy? Ericka Short

perspective I bought a Rumba because I had to two 
dogs,  a  guide dog and a retired dog and two 
cats in the house and I wanted to vacuum my house 
a minimum of once a day preferably twice and I 
didn't want to take the time to do that. So the 
Rumba was an absolutely fabulous solution for me.

Hello everyone, > I just wanted to get your 
opinion about keeping house independently. I used 
to have someone come in once a month just to help 
with things I may have missed, but I am debating 
whether to do this still or not. I did get some 
rehab training with cleaning, but I am not the 
best at it. My main hangup is using a broom, as I 
just can’t figure out how it is done. I just 
invested in a Swiffer so I hope that helps. > > I
