Do you ever have trouble with motor skills?

I love that name for some reason - maybe because someone made a million with items of the same name - not me! Yeah me too - although right now I can't open a spaghetti jar because my wrists are TEMPORARILY weakended from my pregnancy. I used to be the go to girl for strength stuffs. I love all of your random info about tiredness and clmsiness. I guess my just mentioning when I said - not from alchol and other stupid making things like tiredness just plain everday clumsiness got you thinking about how worse things can be when tired. You're lucky though, as the topic relates above, I'm like this without being tired.

I do the things you describe -sideswapping. My brother and sister were born with dyslexia and one of my sister's teachers told her and my mom that she'd be lucky to graduate from trade school (she said it as if trade school was the lowest of the low). She graduated Magna Come (I had to spell it wrong for mylot terms) Laude, and now owns her own business helping non-profits thrive in the most expensive city in the states. She picks and chooses her clients and is highly sought after. My brother commands a six figure salary. From what I've read, I think i have dyspraxia to a small degree. I don't drive because I know that I'd get confused. It never interfered with too much so I never got evalated. I like the zip lock bags with blue thing you pull - other wise I can stand there for ten minutes struggling and finally cut it open with scissors. Ruining it. Are you realy a dog shrink - or only for your dogs? Have you heard of ether - the online site that allows those with an area of expertise to have a third party phone number that goes through to their phone at desired times - or as arranged through E-mail. You charge what you want - no charge to you but ether gets a cut. I think AT&T is taking over the phone service part of it Its available in about 22 countries but mostly the states. So if you know dogs - or homework - or bicycles - you can have your own telephone side to your business.I think its pretty cool. Anyway, just a bit of randomeness!

It sounds like your sister's teacher needed some education herself, about learning disorders! A lot of people just don't understand. I have a friend who is very intelligent, very well educated and well read, with a huge vocabulary -- but she will say to me something like this: "will you hand me that, the one for this thingy, you know the thing I mean." LOL no I don't know what she means! Oh, but sit her down to write a paper and she will blow you out of the water! She cannot fold things or put things together properly, but she has two Master's degrees and a principle's certificate, and she ran organizations that worked with special needs kids. It sounds like you, your sister and your brother are all super intelligent! Maybe that teacher was feeling threatened. Hey, thanks! I will check out ether. Yes, I am a real dog shrink -- my customers gave me that nick name years ago, because I work more with behavior problems and why is the dog/cat doing that and what does it need -- sort of like the Dog Whisperer on tv now, fixing scared dogs, aggressive dogs, etc. I used to answer questions a lot of AskMe.com, which was a great website (no pay), but they closed and I have not found anything like that where they pay you and actually have a lot of traffic to their site. thanks for the tip.
