Absolutely, sounds like my wonderful wife and I--who will also, occasionally
stand holding something out waiting for me to notice and take it; making
herself laugh when she realizes she does it.

Have any of your spouses (spice?) ever been driving with a sighted friend
and met them as they have exited the car, ready to offer an elbo? My wife
has done this more than once over the years; also made her laugh.

again she is directionally challenged and seems confused about which is =
her right. However, I then have the chance to (here it comes) pick on = her
for being a blonde. Oh I did go there did I not? grin ALthough she is not a
Ham herself, she has been good about helping with = configuring new gear and
I help her with painting and other things. So, = although we have many
differences and we do not always agree; we manage = very well. And hey you
just have to have fun with it.
