So, I am not the most accurate typist there is. Many of my typos are "dyslexic," meaning that I interchange letters. Most word programs correct that for me, and I have become lax with spell checking, although I try to remember to spell check these posts before I release them
The problem is, I used to be a very good speller, but now I am a lazy speller. Especially for words that were always questionable to me. For example, I can never remember if occasion has 2 c's and 2 s's or 2c's and 1 s or 1 c and 2 s's. Well, I used spell check so I have it correct here. But that has always been a problem word for me.
The other thing I do is put spaces in the wrong place. So "the neat man" might become "then eat man." Which of course, makes some or little sense. Depending on the word program I am using, it might point out the syntax is incorrect, it might not.
The point is, spelling is a skill like so many others. If you do not use it, you lose it. I read a lot, so that helps me with my spelling, but I have to work on consciously being aware of my spelling.

Spelling
Well, evidently I do not know how to spell customer. As I just did a blog, and labelled it customer service, I noticed that I had something in the labels as costumer service. Hmmmm. I checked it out and I had 3 blogs with that label. Well, I corrected the label. I just was not paying attention.
