Dyslexia might be coming into play with you. We found out it's genetic as it runs in Marilyn's family and has carried through to some of her parents grandchildren. Dyslexics tend to be above average in intelligence if that helps any. Our son is moderately dyslexic. He was tested by the local AEA and at The University of Iowa when he was young and both institutions told us his IQ is much above average but he will need to learn audibly instead visually. In other words, his brain cannot process written words well and he will never be a good speller but if he hears it he remembers it for life. His resource room teacher once told Marilyn she's amazed at how a kid with such a high IQ can't read or write worth a hoot. He's 35 now and has either grown out of it somewhat or he's learned how to process written words in a different manner because he aced the test for his commercial pesticide license and also the hazmat endorsement on his CDL. A good friend of mine is Dyslexic and had to rely on his girlfriend to write all of his college papers as he narrated to her. He's more intelligent than I could ever dream of being.
Spelling and grammar have always come easy for me. In school I was a failure at everything else but at least I could spell. LOL Jim

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
