Yep, finding it was a surprise. I had moved everything from the small micro-cassettes to a large SD card years ago and they got mixed together. I was going through a pile of the SD cards, transferring them to a backup hard drive and found the audio files. Typing them did take a long time, as did the reading-while-replaying step, but it was worth it because I now have a word file indexed and saved.
Way too many things around the homestead to do now! It rained all day yesterday and the leaves are covering the ground, just waiting.
At least life is on an even keel for both of us.
I'm so glad to hear that things are going well for you guys willymac and steemit pays almost nothing so you have to keep up the homestead!
