My brother is my computer and camera expert. Angel's my car expert and my health/what medicines can I combine safely expert. My dad is currently my expert on Malaysian bureaucracy. My grandpa is my lawyer. haha--so apparently my strategy is to surround myself with advisers covering any topic I might need.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07894832851934334471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-62325443945528197532015-07-22T17:49:08.851-05:002015-07-22T17:49:08.851-05:00I do the same thing you do, I take all the necessa...I do the same thing you do, I take all the necessary steps to fix it.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01092211937888152360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-3882438852888449902015-07-22T15:42:55.719-05:002015-07-22T15:42:55.719-05:00Ha I'm the exact same way.

Invariably it doesn't, which is when I begrudgingly resort to plan b which goes something like: attempt to mend broken thing, end up breaking it more, have to call someone to fix it and explain with embarrassment how I made it worse. Good times.
