  1. Note: I am Dyslexic ( Have my peice of paper to prove it). Caryl : Thats paragraph is easy for me to read but I also spell phonetically. I also have a slight issue with my short term memory. For example: You give me verbal directions on how to get to the mall. I will get there fine but won't be able to remember how to get home. My biggest issue with my dyslexia is not the fact I struggle with spelling it's the fact I struggle to identify if the word is in fact spelt correctly or not. I will often 'correct' a word that is infact spelt correctly. For example right now I am wondering if I have spelt correctly right or not. I have managed to pass four years of university and am now a qualified teacher ( No I don't and won't teach english). At one stage in my life I struggled expressing myself through (is through spelt right?) writting. I know the words i can spell 90% of the time correctly and would only uses them to 'try' get my ideas across. What I was in fact (have i spelt in fact right?) doing was limiting my potential ( did i spell potential right?) ( at least I know how to spell right, right!). I am smart! I am intelligent! I am trying - At least I'm trying. I know a lot of people belive that by the third time you have spelt a word you should have it correct. What that taught me was how to cheat on spelling tests; so i would not have to stay in at lunch time when i was 12. I have not done a spell check on this for the people who wish to judge my intelligence on my ability to spell. Oh Caryl, I'm a very good reader .

  8. We had the same prob up here. Cleaned out everything that looked like it allready had bugs in it... so noodles, pasta, rice, flour, bread, choc chips ect. We then washed down the whole pantry with white vinager and made sure everything that had been opened or came in plastic bags ect were put in to new tupperware. So far so good. Have not seen the little bugs for at least a month.
