She gently suggested that it would be easier for her to read my work if I wrote with my right hand. =D<br /><br />That is wacky that you are wacky with snowboarding/skiing (pun intended)! I've also heard the same described with surfing - apparently if you are left-dominate in surfing, you are called "goofy."

Add to this that my left knee is my wonky one, so I favor that leg - putting even MORE pressure on my right foot.

It was such a kick, especially when writing.<br /><br />You know something weird, though? I'm actually "wacky" when it comes to snowboarding/skiing (left dominate). I can't figure out why.Shinianenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15340969239524875329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-65987443029159612532013-11-13T12:53:34.276-06:002013-11-13T12:53:34.276-06:00Today I'm working on my laptop from the food c...Today I'm working on my laptop from the food court at our student center in Lincoln Park.

I...Yay for taking a different route with your walk! I walk to work, too! I think we are blessed because it's much easier for walkers to change up the route compared to those that drive to work. But even when driving, you can listen to a different radio station, drive in a different lane, hold the steering wheel a different way. Always ways to mix things up. =)emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-81451415941614416022013-11-13T11:42:40.860-06:002013-11-13T11:42:40.860-06:00Totally relate!

I always sit in the same place to use my computer - so I tried sitting in a different place at the table and it was almost like a whole new perspective. =) I have seen some of the habitual stairmaster-users at my gym, too, always leaning on their elbows. I get frustrated seeing their poor form but feel like it's none of my business to say anything...<br /><br />Thanks again for hosting!

I think I remember from high school biology class that being right-handed is a dominant trait in the pool of genetics... or maybe I am just hoping that it is, LOL. And I don't know about you, but I am even right-footed! My running shoes wear out more quickly on my right foot than on my left!!!emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-72533554791633062432013-11-13T11:38:58.523-06:002013-11-13T11:38:58.523-06:00It really is amazing how difficult it is just to t...It really is amazing how difficult it is just to think of things to change, yes?

Years ago at this gym I went to there was a red-headed girl on the stairmaster every. freaking. day. Going full bore except she held on with her elbows locked so not really doing that much work. I will never forget her. Such a fixture in that gym!<br />I agree this challenge IS a challenge in itself! Haha!
