Been left-handed all my life
Living, stressing and adjusting
To a right-handed world
With a right-handed husband        Right-handed children and
Six right-handed grandsons…
Life has been good….

But today…
After my husband went hunting
I realized I have turned my
Left-handed kitchen
Over to my right-handed husband
NIGHTMARE!!!!

Rearranging my knives so the
Handles face the way my
Left-handed person reaches for them
Was the first priority
On my agenda

Next was taking all the
Dishes out of the left side sink
Which contains the garbage disposal
Scraping and putting
Them into the larger right side
Filled with  sudsy hot water.                To let the left-over cooked
Eggs soften off

Those are probably the two biggest
Stand out items in my kitchen
That says the wife in this kitchen is LEFT-HANDED

Since we retired
My husband has become the
Chief chef
In this left-handed kitchen…
He does his cooking his way
And leaves my kitchen in
A disarray of right-handedness
That drives this lefty bonkers…

My sister-in-law
Also right-handed but more
Left-handed kind
Has informed me how to find
Things in my kitchen now
That my right-handed husband has
Been putting things away

She informed me that it isn’t
So much his right-handedness
As it is his man-handedness
Which is their easiest way to do it

They put everything on the middle
Eyesighted shelf
In the refrigerator and the pantry
Everything goes in their mind on the shelf straight ahead
No reaching no bending
Can’t find the dust pan look in the
Pantry straight ahead
Found it
Lemons
In frig straight ahead
Found it
Should be in drawer
No she said
They don’t look there
Straight ahead
Middle shelf
OMG

So now I will
Continue to put my kitchen
Back to it’s left-handed status
After I try to figure out
My husband’s man-handedness brain

A new nightmare for this
left-handed wife
Man-handedness!!!!
