Well done Ruth!

You know you're dyspraxic when you need to give yourself a month to clear out your room (as I am doing!)

You know you're Dyspraxic when walk round to the shops to buy a pint of milk. get to the counter and realise you have no purse. Wlk home to get it and realise you have no keys or phone either and have to wait 2 hours before anyone else gets home! All for the sake of a cup of tea.

You know you're dyspraxic when you bake the cakes for the cake sale at schol you ice them and put them in a tin. Then in the morning you forget them and leave them at home! not only that but you also leave your keys at home so can't get in when you come back for them and have to phone husband at work to come home and let you in. Seriously considering leaving spare key in welly cupboard! THat's twice in a week now

You know your Dyspraxic when.....

-You fall over and scrape your knee and it takes about six month to heal because you keep bumping it into things.

-Your bruises have bruises.

-You come up with something intelligent to say but it comes out as "um......er......it's like.......you get what I'm saying?".

-you tie your shoes lace with five knots once then you never undo them again instead you just slip your feet in and out of the shoe with the shoelaces done up.

when you open your mouth to speak and this strange sound comes out that is nothing like the words you wanted to say.

You go to the shops for the weekly shop get back to the car and think oh no where are my keys only to find them stuck in the car door!! for an hour!!

Then when you get home you start to write the list of all the stuff you forgot to buy off the first list $\:D/$

You know you're dyspraxic when a tooth brush becomes a dangerous weapon; you're brushing your teeth, manage to miss your mouth and poke yourself in the eye instead.

When even a simple phone conversation or initiating a conversation in person seems like a massive hurdle.

I'll blame the Japanese heat for this one too.

Twas the morning and I donned my shorts to go to the bathroom in the youth hostel where I was staying, then afterwards got ready to go out, dressed and headed out. I went to the bathroom at some point during the day, unzipped and found to my great surprise that I was confronted by another zip. Turns out in one of my seemingly increasing moments of not concentrating on what I'm doing I'd put the trousers over my shorts. I must be losing it. Fortunately it wasn't obvious but I felt a right wally.

You wake up in the morning and you are either scratched, bruised, or hurtin on some part of your body, but can't for the life of u remember what u did the day before to get that way cos u knock into things so often that u don't feel the pain when you hurt yourself anymore!
