Time Flies

I looked at a calendar this morning - OMG! our time is 1/3 done!!


Yesterday was spent doing the books for the condo - our property manager left in December (a good thing) and the Board has been doing a fantastic job in taking over, but no one on-site has bookkeeping skills, and no "accounting" system was in place - all different now - up to date and sustainable!


I thought we had settled into a late afternoon rain pattern - that's how it started yesterday - then it rained all night - this morning was clear, but started again around 11 am - coming down the mountain as the view to the ocean is sunny clear and spectacular!


Went for dinner with Yves last night - met him online - from Montreal originally, but has been living here more or less permanently since 1996 - built a local hotel back then and has since done other small developments - supervises the construction.  He lives in Uvita.  He's a really nice guy - interesting and experienced with life here - speaks spanish and french, but struggles with english!   Maybe the start of our own gay community!


more bugs - they amaze me!  Lisle said he has 'thunder thighs'!
The workers are here fixing stuff with the outdoor shower (paint isn't working) and some of the concrete - yesterday they dug up 2 of the planters and relined them with cement - today - stripped all the paint off the shower and are sanding it down - then seal the cement and repaint.


Lisle headed off to look at more land (a real deal!) and for provisions - returned without the land (thank god!) and with tuna and shrimp - YUM!


I think it is almost time for drinks at Boca!
