The Fretful Mother's Blog

I’m good with words, not so good with the numbers. It doesn’t matter how important the numbers are, I cannot be trusted to handle them. I remember being assigned my first locker and thinking I don’t know why they are even bothering. I will never be able to use it, as it involves numbers. This is a daily problem. As you may have noticed, we all use math every day.
Every Friday, I take my daughter to her diving lessons. Lockers are generally required for the storage of items not entering the pool with you. So there I stand every week facing the lockers. I do not allow anything of importance to be placed in the lockers. It is a very probable reality that I will forget the combination and the items will never be retrieved. So my purse or keys never go into the locker. Otherwise we would not be able to leave and would be forced to live in the mildewy locker room until the locks disintegrated. I’m guessing we’d be dead by then. So in order to live, I must avoid depending on locker combinations. You can never be too safe.
