Re: holds up left hand!!!
I'm a lefty too. I can write with my right hand (sorta) and I play fingerstyle guitar right handed.. but for most things my right hand is pretty lame.
I have to use left handed scissors.. had to use righties growing up, but they never worked well for me. Now I'm the only lefty groomer at work so no one steals my scissors. (yay)
Re: holds up left hand!!!
I'm a lefty. But I only use right hand scissors, only kind we had in school. As far as welding I can use both pretty well. Had to learn that trick to get into hard to access places with the gun.:)
Re: holds up left hand!!!
I'm predominantly a (natural) right-hander, but after 2 breaks of the wrist and arm, and two surgeries (the first break happening on the last day of school :( :mad: ), I'm now ambidextrous. I spent the entire first summer playing catch w/my little sister, learned to eat, throw (and everything else) left handed.
By the 2nd break, and the two subsequent surgeries...I can even write lefty.....but it looks like a third grader's. Not neat, but it is legible (barely :rolleyes: ). My mom hates me, b/c when she hurt her arm, she (almost) had to be fed....she couldn't use her left hand for anything with any sort of coordination or skill. (Snickering w/lots of love):rolleye2:
Re: holds up left hand!!!
i too am the only leftie in my family...
LEFTIES UNITE!!!
i think we need a parade :D
Re: holds up left hand!!!
Like my hubby Mike (McAdry) said we are still not sure what's up with our son Mikey. I'm right handed, Mike even though he uses his right had is "genetically" a leftie and Mikey just doesn't seem to have a completely dominant hand. We never promoted one hand over the other as he was learning to use utensils and pencils and such. We'd place the item dead center and let him choose which hand he used. It's odd how he'll start eating with his right hand and halfway through dinner casually switch to his left. He does seem to mostly write using his right hand but his printing looks like that of a left handed child (and he struggles with fine motor skills with printing). He shows no preference in sports either...using both left and right hand skills at various sports.
Re: holds up left hand!!!
Lefty here too.... And no, I can't do anything with the right... hehe.. i do mean ANYTHING.
