Hope you pass. I would never be a able to do the math, no matter how good my handwriting.

My handwriting is excellent, thank you, but your posting brought back a memory for me. My dad’s handwriting was the absolute worst ever, but somehow I could read it just fine. Sometimes he would even ask me to read what he wrote, because he could not read his own writing, IT WAS BAD. Several years after Dad died, I came across an old letter he wrote me years ago that for some reason I had tucked away, and I felt like I had found treasure! I especially liked the “love, Dad” scribble on the bottom of the page. I held the paper to my face and smelled it. Weird, huh?
I still take that old letter out from time to time and do the same thing. To me, Dad’s scribbles are perfect.

My architectural lettering was some of the best in school. When I started using Auto CAD all that hard effort with crafting my writing went out the door. Now if I want others to read my handwriting, I focus on making it legible. If I am just writing for myself, I have to be careful to not make it too sloppy or I won’t be able to read it after a while.

Same for me. I can read my scribble, and have developed sort of my own short hand, but no one else should dare try. It’s completely a brain speed issue. Must write fast enough to keep up.

That’s exactly what I will have to do.

When I write for just me to read, it’s hardly legible, though I can read it fine. When I write for anyone else to read, I print. Takes me longer, but others can at least read it.
