I was writing a thank you card and my writing was appalling to me. I said to my hubby that I actually received penmanship awards throughout school, now it's not even legible. I was taught typing in school as well as penmanship. I think we may still need both. Do people not send birthday cards and thank you cards anymore? You can't type those. Or just send them via email? Hmm...not cool.<br /><br />Okay must now go to read Mike's link above me.Margaret (Peggy or Peg too)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04247428494327269983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23683658.post-38033789570153950172017-01-23T12:58:23.164-05:002017-01-23T12:58:23.164-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Margaret (Peggy or Peg too)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04247428494327269983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23683658.post-59632862480052636182017-01-23T12:01:57.599-05:002017-01-23T12:01:57.599-05:00Did you make it through the links to this article?...Did you make it through the links to this article? http://www.vox.com/2016/3/2/11148356/donald-trump-short-fingers-small-hands-vulgarian<br />It's funny stuff.<br /><br />My handwriting looks like a three year olds' scribbling. I've though of several different ways to get some kind of letter to you and have never followed through. Maybe the script fonts are the way to go.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00017192454403363349noreply@blogger.com
