My Mum who is no longer with us bought me a pair of leftie dressmaking scissors which worked wonderfully until they became blunt - they never worked the same after they were sharpened, I really feel who ever sharpened them must have been a right hander! I now just muddle along with right handed ones but feel I may try some more leftie ones in the future.<br />So glad we don`t get treated the same way your mum did years ago, I can see the Headlines now! If you delve back even further into history I think you`ll find we were treated as witches!<br />I too tried the guitar but gave up - left that to my husband and brother both right handers and very good, but you've now got me thinking because my other brother who is left handed also struggled and gave up but my very determined daughter ( a leftie) is taking it up again ...<br />I could go on and on about this as two of my grandchildren are lefties also!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17133552954262653041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-13971746854755442482017-02-11T10:49:47.478+00:002017-02-11T10:49:47.478+00:00Hi Morag & ladies, missed you Morag hope you a...Hi Morag & ladies, missed you Morag hope you are all keeping well. <br />Has been very cold but quite a few small flourishs of snow here yesterday but same today Saturday. <br />Keep warm anduring look after yourselves. <br />Hugs to all. <br />Lynn xx⛄Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16688590395244035979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-47954706702778733272017-02-11T08:45:12.730+00:002017-02-11T08:45:12.730+00:00Hello Barb, a great blog post, love the ending, al...Hello Barb, a great blog post, love the ending, all in all a good giggle, apart from your poor hands.

My uncle used to tell me though that the teachers used to hit his knuckles with a ruler if he used his left hand. Cruel wasn't it? Had to laugh about your poor Mum eating the mans roll.

I was sent to the head masters office. It was the only thing my mum ever went to the school about and she always called me cack handed! Does any body else have a problem with packaging?

Every other thing I do left handed and only use my right hand when I can't get the screw in or I would brake my hand, things like that. But definitely I can't pour a coffee with my right hand or it will end in a big mess LOL<br /><br />But with tools... I think we lefties are used to use right handed tools as even a knife is "the other way round". In our generation there weren't any left handed tools. As I started school in 1962 children were not forced anymore to use only their right hands like your mom. We had a boy in class who was seated on the left site of the bench so both writing hands didn't collide. <br /><br />Luckily paint brushes and stuff like that can be used both ways, right and left.kartenkunsthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08310067536979835239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-82216862826913374862017-02-10T22:26:05.448+00:002017-02-10T22:26:05.448+00:00Hi Chris,
