    or when it’s thundering – even in the distance, Woody tries to crawl under the bed. Our bed is too low for him to get his butt under so he wakes me up.

    But that’s not the point of this post.

    When I went to turn on the lamp using the switch by the light bulb it was on the wrong side. So I’m fumbling around looking for the dang switch in the dark. Finally found it with my left hand.

    That’s the point. Any of you guys living with a left handed spouse?

    Now don’t get me wrong. I know it’s tough to be left handed in a right handed world, but some sympathy has to go to us guys that have to look for the silverware drawer on the WRONG side of the sink.

    The day I caught the FW opening a can of tuna with a hand crank can opener from the side of the can rather then the top really made me scratch my head. Maybe that’s more of a blond thing then a lefty thing(?)

    Anyone else out there suffering with me?

    I fell hard for a left handed girl when I was in my teens… but it never went anywhere. Maybe I should count my blessings!

    I can still commiserate tho.

    I’m left handed. You know what they say, lefties are always right.

    I fish with a guy like that all the handles on his reels are on the wrong side.

    I am right handed and I am more comfortable with the handle on the right side of my spinning reels. Every time I let someone use my reel the handle comes back on the wrong side. I hate that.

    I hate that left sided lamp knob syndrome. Ours are usually spun around in one direction or another to the point of the lamp falling apart.

    I think wives must have some sort of handbook of ways to annoy us.

    My wife is a lefty, but she’s also pretty ambidextrious. The only time we have problems is if we’re seated next to each other at a dinner table.

    I think it was Jeff Foxworthy that said:
