Share Your World – 2015 Week #9
How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?
Somewhere between 17 and 1001. It depends on when you ask.
Are you left or right-handed?
Absolutely right. Not even a hint of ambidextrousness. My mother was truly ambidextrous, but I didn’t inherit it. How useful it would be if I were.
If you HAD to change your name, what would you change it to?
Maggie. My not-so-secret identity. I don’t think Maggie has a last name. She is just Maggie. Like Madonna or Cher. One name (to rule them all).
Where do you hide junk when people come over?
I don’t hide things. I put it all on shelves. I call it art. To me, it’s beautiful. If it were junk, it would be gone. I don’t save trash.

I still get startled by my own reflection. “Mom???”

I have paid attention to the things I do with my left hand, and those I do with my right. I am naturally right handed, but I eat with my left hand… my plate always has to be towards my left side. I’m not sure if I always do this, but I attribute it to years of eating at the computer where I needed my right hand for the mouse. I also shave lefthanded… which I chalk up to the mind game of my mirror reflection making me think I’m actually using my right hand. I have also found that I’m terrible at trying to roll the passenger side window down, because I’m so used to using my left hand to roll down the driver’s side window (Yes, I’m seriously dating how old my car is). I think our mind can overcome any idea of handedness and train itself to favor a certain hand over the other is the circumstances dictate it…

We too have a 2002 car and yes, it has manual roll down window handles. On the positive side, the windows and doors never short out and trap you in the car.
You sound like Garry, so you probably, no matter how you explain it, are somewhat ambidextrous or you couldn’t do all that stuff with your left hand. I can’t do much of anything with my left hand. I keep everything on my left because of that nasty habit of eating at the computer, but when I actually EAT, I use my right hand. And that’s why I have a sealed keyboard!

I can’t do anything at all that demands any sort of precision with my left hand, but my mum is fairly ambidextrous. Weird.

Of all her gifts, that one would have been really useful. Especially on the piano where my left hand always fought a battle to even half keep up with the right. I guess it isn’t inherited.

I throw and bat lefty (att: Red Sox) lefty. Everything else is righty.

Mom also played games (like tennis and softball) lefty, but wrote righty. She could write with both hands, but rarely bothered. I envy you double handedness 🙂

That’s actually a bit like my mum – she tends to do precision stuff with one hand and power stuff with the other.

That seems to be the most common kind of ambidextrousness. Me? Right hand, all the way.

I love that photo of the flowers- the colors with the red vase are perfect.You strike me as a one name kinda gal, I could see that.

Thank you. And one name means I wouldn’t only have to remember ONE name. Since I can’t remember anything any more!
