Don’t let the blog title confuse you. There is only one way I could be linked to being a doctor, and that is my horrible handwriting. Have you ever tried to read a prescription written by your doctor? That is what my handwriting looks like all the time.
Most of my friends and family write beautifully. One of my best friends, Mary Ann, has the most beautiful handwriting. It is straight, smooth, and you can read every letter without having to strain to ask whether an “a” is an “e” like you do when you read my writing. Our Aunt Billie, who is around 90 years old, sends us handwritten notes, and she has a wonderful handwriting. It is slanted to the right a little, fancy-looking, and very readable. My son, David, is a leftie, and he writes neater than I do.
I have thought seriously about taking handwriting lessons, but at this point in my life I am having to pick and choose priorities, and handwriting lessons seem like such a luxury to me. Anyway, I would not even know where to start looking for such lessons.
I have read that our handwriting makes us unique so I’m just going to stick with my own “special” handwriting. For now, I am going to try to write slowly and deliberately and hope that if I can read my handwriting, others will also be able to.

I write like a doctor. I can read it, but most people make that comment.
