The sun has been shining most days now and temps in the upper 70s. Work has resumed with our goal of finishing the main house this year. If I could only make that goal the same for the workers then we would be all set. The second swimming pool was to be done in two weeks; that was over a month ago. Today we considered ourselves lucky to have one man working on it.
Our grounds keeper has been busy pruning the shrubs and trees and completely destroying them. Many small trees that we planted are now missing the main trunk. I am soooo POed. I'll now have to go buy new ones. No matter how many times I tell him and show him, he just does not understand. It is a common problem that others have here also. We show they how to do things, give detailed instructions and they are all forgotten the next day.
Another couple has left the D.R. and did so rather quickly. No one knows why but it is assumed that they where "wanted" in their home country and had been found. They left just about everything they own including 6 adult dogs plus 7 puppies now. Also 6 horses. We will go look at the situation and see if we can help the person that took over caring for them. Maybe I should put them all in the unfinished part of the house so I can have the feeling of accomplishing something. (Just kidding dear.) I'll hide a couple of the horses on our vacant lot down the street.
