On reflection!
I'm depressed!
For the past few days and hours I have been trying to put together a funding proposal. In one of my more lucid moments, I asked my friend if she would look over it and amend whatever. Well today I saw her amended version . Thats why I'm depressed! Where my words and sentences are a cobbling together of all that is mundane and un apetising, her version is a joy to read. Her words are like a finley tuned and tightly scripted piece of music; flowing and informative. They make my attempt look long winded and lethargic and similar to those of a primary school pupil. I know I come from a long line of dyslexics and my three kids have various ranges of dyslexia but that is still no excuse for my inablility to write in a manner that is elequent and informative!
As my eldest daughter often tells me when she looks over my translations, "mum you write as you speak"
My inability to write in a coherent manner does'nt extend to my verbal skills. I am a reasonably good communicator and a good public (almost dropped the l from that word!) speaker well able to explain things in a humerous informative way so why the Hell can I not transpose that onto paper? The sooner they allow folks to make recorded applications rather than using paper the better if you ask me!

Have a good Sunday all
