..no I’m not happy at all....my handwriting is awful...but I think it also reflects that life tends to be a rush, for me anyway... so I’m always feeling in a rush when I’m writing....it can be more neat when I have more time...actually, we spoke recently about journal writing, Maru...and I have to say, a positive about that was that it gave me more time to ‘kick back’ as it were...but then my head and thoughts weren’t clear thinking, so my handwriting was still awful.....I had to rush stuff onto the page, while I still had them in my head because often those things became completely lost with treatments etc...



...anyways, my mum always had the most beautiful handwriting...I was totally in awe of it....she can’t and doesn’t write now because she has dementia plus something equivalent to Parkinson’s disease, so she’s too ‘shaky’ to write and keep a pen or pencil steady...my dad also actually had lovely handwriting, it was quite calligraphy-ish in its style...so I come from a fine heritage of great handwriting and am a bit of a black sheep with that.....actually my eldest brother has beautiful handwriting as well...beautiful in that it’s very pretty in style but not very readable though...
