I am also like you I don't understand them. I can just about spell let alone try to work them out, I'm glad I'm not the only one with a little brain. XX

I use abbreviations so that it's quicker to type and saves my fingers ( I tend to write long posts :) )

I'll try to remember in future :)

I rather think that for a lot of bloggers it is easier to use abbreviations etc because it would take to long and a lot of corrections to do it all long hand.

The comments i have made to various blogs have not needed abbreviations etc which is just as well because everything I write I have go through lots of times to make corrections- the curse of fibro fog
