Declaration of dependance.

I must admit, I am totally dependent on Patrick.  He knows what the hell people are saying and can get stuff done.  This is sort of a tough pill to swallow for me.  I was so used to filling out all the checks to pay the bills, and making sure the insurance was done and paid for, I guess, just managing the home.  Sometimes, I get a little ahead of myself and try to do something without Patrick.  I still really do need his help with most everything.  Today I am reminded of this.  Although, I did get my own video rental card which is a big deal.  Patrick had to fill the whole form out for me.  And I have, more than once now, ordered food and ended up with twice as much food as I intended or accidentally ordered something I did not want.  I guess I know how to say YES in Japanese too well...I really need to learn how to say NO politely.  On a high note, I did manage to politely tell the lady at the ramen place in the food court that I did not want egg in my soup.  I win!  Sort of.

This is a big deal!
