Ayk,

Short and simple....You are learning grasshopper. I might have gotten a little bit shorter...but that is nitpicking.

ADD note-Is that actually what you sent her? Or is it a shortened version? I have a problem in text or conversation where I shorten up what I am saying. In doing that I usually drop key words that take smooth sentences and turn them all choppy.

"My response back:Between 5:45 or 6? D knows all but last 3 or 4 answers for (maybe should be 'because the') science study guide were (maybe 'was" instead) emailed to her. If homework’s not done that’s ok S might have a test tomorrow I could quiz him on. Thanks"

I am not busting your grammer butt here. That email looks like something I have sent before and had my butt busted over. My employees used to complain about it a lot...the quote is "It is like you expect us to know what is missing". This is a common ADD problem. Our minds are running so fast that we think we said something and never actually did. If this is the common form of an email from you to anybody...I would work on it with proactive communication. After I gave an employee direction I would ask them to repeat it back to me. It helped me see where I was coming up short communicating.
