Words that look wrong to me!

So something to laugh about. Sometimes I'm writing and all of a sudden a word looks wrong to me. I think I've spelled it wrong. But when I think about it or look it up or ask my husband, I discover I've written it correctly! Does that ever happen to you? What words do you have the most difficulty with? "Their" is one I always think I've spelled it wrong.

I also have a list of words I consistently misspell. Among is my most difficult word. For the reason of being Canadian and using the british spelling of words, I always want to add a U to it; it would then be spelled amoung. Which my wonderful husband always tells me is wrong. I also add extra e's to the end of some words. This goes back to my French heritage. It usually only happens when I'm using pen and paper, not very often when typing because the flow isn't there.
