Judy,

Hold out your hands in front of you, palms away from you.

Keep the fingers together, and extend the thumbs at right angles.

The hand where the fingers are the vertical part of a capital "L", and the thumb sticks out to the right as the base of a capital "L", will be the Left hand.

Using this as a base for reference, you will be able to keep track.

Unless, of course, you people in the northern hemisphere have your hands on backwards.

Best of luck.

:-)
