With my new laptop, I discovered a new program that will make it really easy to do crafts and other things hands-free! It's called voice recognition, and the more I use it the more it understands what I am saying. Right now I have to correct it quite a bit, and it doesn't help that I have a sinus infection! But I have typed this whole post without having to touch the. I can foresee that I will soon be able to embroider, crochet, knit etc. While still using the computer hands-free!
I know is kind of geeky but I think a it will be a great way to multi task! Not only that but if it gets really good I can use it to type my homework for me!
We have that too Alee! My husband loves it and is "training" it. He uses it while working on his teaching for Sunday.

Just be forewarned- It takes a while to train it and you have to talk in small sections. Like keep it to under 5 words per section. So you can lose your rhythm a bit, but I think as it learns (by you correcting it a lot!) you can talk more naturally.
