Dyscalculia.

Check this out: the real authentic Cadbury Easter Creme Egg  on the left and the cheap knock-off version on the right. Don't they look the same, except one comes wrapped in foil(inside the box) and the other in a plastic egg? Other than that though at quick glance they look the same; the same colours and design, on purpose no doubt so you'd think the knock-off was the real Cadbury one and grab it in a hurry not really noticing. I also came across last night what I finally think has a name for my life-long struggle with math and numbers and my perception problem, at long last as well:

Dyscalculia.

It's a bona fide learning disability sort of like Dyslexia only with numbers, spatial perception, pattern recognition, following maps and directions, being able to calculate math in your head(I still can't do and still count on my fingers or need a calculator and up until now I thought was just normal and everyone did) can't figure out how to calculate tips, etc. always struggled with math(which has always been the bane of my existance) incl. multiplying and dividing and I can't do fractions for the life of me no matter HOW hard I try or how long I'd study ,and , esp. word problems(I could never figure out what they're even asking or how I'm supposed to figure it out; do I multiply, divide, or what), etc. and all this time I just thought(and was told) that I was dumb, and kept failing math.....even though I excelled at all the other school subjects....

now I know why.

Now it finally has a name.

So I'm NOT "stupid" afterall.

More like retarded.

So how come I don't feel "better" now?

I also heard at least 50 American doctors are seriously looking to move here due to the Orange Shitgibbon(and I can't believe he's already caused so much damage in such a short time, in a mere couple of months!) which is good for us though with our doctor shortage, and there's also this massive demonstration all across the USA as well protesting him and hopefully soon him and Musk will be removed from office, esp. now the Americans are finally getting it that tariffs affect them too and are making everything more expensive, and in Gaza the IDF also killed UN humanitarian workers and secretly buried them but the mass grave was discovered and they tried to cover it up and say they never knew who they were and then that they never had their emergency vehicle lights on, etc. but a later video that resurfaced disputed that. How come no one ever holds Israel to account for their genocide and war crimes? They're like the new  modern-day Nazis. I also noticed as well that all summer Taylor Swift was everywhere too and you couldn't get away from her and now it's like all of a sudden she just vanished and you don't see or hear from her anymore(and I'm glad) and it's just sort of weird. I think she was a psy-Op all along.

This is also my fave. shopping bag I use for groceries or Wal-Mart etc, the one with the pineapples on it and for some reason the photo came out side-ways only I don't know how to fix it and turn it the right way (sorry) so you're just going to have to turn your head sideways. I'm sad to well to hear one of my friends from the old church her hubby( just in his early 60's) she's been married to for 40 years has dementia now and they don't know "how long he has left" and I remember the oldest was friends with her boys as teens and now they're all grown up and married with kids of their own. The 28 YR old and his fiance also put an offer in on a house and he recently sold his other one and still no date for the wedding yet, unless, of course there actually is they just didn't tell me (which is more likely) not wanting me to come, and my hubby hurt his shoulder playing pickleball again, and we also still have the Christmas table cloth on the dining room table from Christmas 2 years ago,too! HA! We're just so lazy!

I go through long periods of my life, sometimes decades, with only memories to fall back on.-Bella Freeman
