I can identify with him, I have a disability when it comes to right and left, my sister, one brother and 2 granddaughters have the same problem. I operate with North, South, East and West. And for a woman, I’m very handy. I also use that phrase or I pretend to hold a pencil.
My husband is always telling me “no, the other right...or left”
Guess I was fortunate to have taken things part and put’em backtogether since birth.Never really had to think about it.
But unlike my bro that didn’t know how to change oil in his car but could land a jet on an aircraft cararier I can’t add or subtract and still use my fingers for some more advanced calculations.
