I was discussing Elen with my mother recently, and said she’s extremely good at getting along with people, forming a team, and building consensus ... but poor at math. Mom said, “Calculators can do math! The other stuff is what’s really important in life!”
Calculators do math, but I found that I would go over and over my checkbook and each time, the balance would be different. I would begin to short-circuit before payday was even over.
It was only when AMEX came up with their brilliant checking plan that I was able to once again write checks instead of buy money orders.
The things some people can do so easily are real challenges to me, and often beyond my ability to comprehend.
I took a short nap, too, after losing my lunch. Now I want to go back to bed, but I have to figure out what to eat so I can take my pills. *sigh*
