CHECK IT OUT

-

Todays subject is Check It Out ✅


I noticed that check it out was displayed with a tick ✅ that looked just like that but what about the person who has always done a tick facing the other way \.- see there is not even a computer symbol for a left handed tick the way I write them and at one time I would have written the title commencing on the right side so that I didn’t smudge the ink and my writing was readable. TUO TI KCEHC but my teacher could not read it I could but she couldn’t so I was not permitted to write in the direction I chose. 

Put it this way it was hard being a left handed kid in a right handed world , the were no scissors made for us back then we would get bumped on our arm when writing by the person next to us. Back when I was a child it was almost against the law to be a lefty and many of us were punished for it had our left hand tied behind our backs to force us to conform, bust mostly we could not. 

I wonder where the world would be today without us the ones who they couldn’t break. Who they could not force to conform because it was beyond our capabilities we just could not do it. Where would the world be without the left handed artists, inventors,  musicians, philosophers and many brilliant sports people who were left handed. 

And I have one piece of information for everyone who has ever used a sewing machine, it is a left handed piece of equipment it was originally made by a left handed man for his own use, if you don’t believe me put your hands on a sewing machine and work out which hand does most of the work, the left one yes that’s correct it’s the left hand . So welcome to our world. 

 

As far as I am concerned this photo is the correct way to write, notice I said the correct way not the right way, I don’t use the word right very much at all spelt RIGHT .

 I am so glad that now you are permitted to be left handed they even had left handed scissors! 
Our children didn’t go through what their parents did as both Wayne and myself are lefty’s and our oldest two children are , our youngest son always said he was the odd man out because he was the only person in the five of us to use the hand on the other side of his body.

  That square part of the shed was where Charles Blegg commenced his life and lived until he was 4. Also in that shed were his parents John and Margaret and 8 siblings, including a baby younger than Charles. That was the gardeners and grave diggers shed at the Anglican Church at Ouse Tasmania. It wasn’t much to call home but as many only had a small tent or canvas lean too it was better than some. When Charles was 4 disaster struck, his 69 year old father died, and so his job went to someone else and with the job and the tools for grave digging they also lost the shed they had called home. Charles found himself at the age of 4 dumped by his mother at the Hobart Orphans home, with not a thing to call his own. After a short time there a foster family was found for him, many farm women liked the idea of fostering a boy, he could help on the farm, and she got paid to care for him, plus there was an extra amount as soon as he was old enough to go to school, there were clothes supplied b...

  About Margaret Blegg   I knew i had this information but could not find it, as i have time to sort out some thumb drives i have found the copy i took.  some things to note  Margaret was born in Tasmania, according to her , and she was born at Big River Tasmania. this document was because she left her 2 daughters in a field with nothing : desertion for which she served 14 days.  by this time she had another daughter to Charles Walsh.

  2022 52 ANCESTORS WEEK 5 Week 6 AT THE LIBRARY I know the great value of the library, although I have not been to the local library since we moved home a year ago, but while studying for Families at War, a subject of the family history course offered by UTAS, I spent a lot of time at the family history part of the Wanneroo library. Where I was given access to photos that had not been sorted but placed in storage to be looked at at a later date .  I borrowed Many books about the 1st world war and sat and read articles that could not be removed from the library.  It was in the library that I read the sad stories about the great great great grandfather of 3 of our grandchildren. But it had a good ending as he returned home and after his wife died shortly after his return he raised his 2 children on his own.
