Bad mis...I mean Mistress

I feel bad. I am a bad Punctuation Mistress. I sometimes capitalize the ‘H’ in he if it is as the beginning of the sentence. I will occasionally forget to capitalize the ‘m’ in Mistress or Master. Bad BDSM Punctuation Mistress. Bad! 20 lashes!

For the life of me I can’t reteach myself. I can barely put a sentence together that doesn’t get underlined green by Word due to poor grammar. I couldn’t diagram a sentence to save my life. I have only learned to spell so I don’t look stupid when my daughter asks me to spell something. And on my computer Word keeps auto correcting my capitalization. It’s an uphill struggle and I am afraid I may not be up to it.

Is it cheating if I have my sub proof read and correct any erroneously capitalized ‘H’s or rouge ‘m’s. I wonder, I wonder….
