Just for everyone to know....
I have mild dyslexia, English was not my first language, but all my schooling was in English, and I really, really, really, (did I mention really?) stink at math. With that being said, if my explanations don't make sense, please ask me to re explain. I don't mind.
My math is so bad that I've had people say to me, yet you can crochet. Friends, it is w/ a lot of work...I have to count the first row three times, I come up w/ three different ans, on the forth try I try and match up that ans w/ the three I already came up w/ to see....
I honestly don't know why this is, I just have the hardest time...even if I use the calculator, somewhere along the sum, I mess one sum up and my total comes out wrong.
Most of my teachers had no patients with me; I honestly put forth as much effort as I could, but it just doesn't click.
So, if my words don't make any sense feel free to ask me again...happy crocheting.

if everyone was same, what would we talk about, each of us is different, that is what makes each and everyone of us special. each of us is like a present, we each come in our own box, just like a tree with presents under it, each one is different and a new special surprise in it...

I stink at math, too, and I have no excuse. You are among friends. We take you as you are, flaws and all. Anaisa, You are lucky. You can speak more than one language. I'm jealous. Trenarah put it beautifully.
Hugs, Judy
