I refuse to tell you how many I missed! When I was working I had to send out many memos. However, I had my trusy old spell check to keep me accurate.

You are younger than I am Susan. Still, I should have done a bit better than 20. Horrors Is Right! Mother would be horrified. I am not going to tell her. My cousin is going to love this one.
Back to the brain exercises. To stop and think about it caused me to second guess myself. I very rarely write ‘prerogative.’
Scrabble anyone?

I am not as good as I used to be and that is all I am going to say on the matter…………
Like Jean, I depend on good old spell check to keep me from embarrasing myself. ……..

I got 5 wrong. I carelessly got a few wrong, but some I legitimately got wrong. I do have the knowledge that I was the best speller in my class in 5th grade though. It’s been downhill ever since. I went to the townwide spelling bee and came in 15th or so (about halfway through, I got kicked out due to misspelling ’succeed’ – how ironic).
