I'm so the same way...can't do it at times.

Call the water company and they'll tell you how much and give you the address and account number when it's time to pay, OK?

Even if not opening, try to put it all in the same spot.

I agree that having someone there with you is good if possible. If not, how about having an internet friend sit with you in IM while you open and you can tell them what they say and they can make sure you're reading it right, etc. Is that possible?
