Unnecessary….I think that’s correct but I’m never sure.
Got lazy since I stopped teaching.

I’m finding my spelling is not so good as it used to be, no idea why. But if I’m on the desk top computer I have a dictionary sitting in the top drawer AND I have to check it at times. :slightly_frowning_face:

I always wonder, is it 2 cees and 2 esses.
Squiggly line comes up when I do the 2 cees thingy.

Same with me. So often now I simply forget how to spell many words.
Must be something to do with losing a few brain cells. :pensive:

My writing isn’t good either. It’s amazing my pen pals can read my letters, but I suppose after all these years they have learnt to decipher them. :grinning:

Harassment. I wait for spell check to tell me if I got the R’s and s’s right.

Odd that it capitalized the r but not the s.

There are a few more like that but I can’t remember them.
