    Refrigerator Repair

    when i arrived the fridge was not working.
    ...even though landlord & i don't need no fridge
    .......all he do wit it is make ice (for water & drinks
    and to chill a few things

    we don't shop much
    ..just what we need and gonna use right-away
    .
    .
    but he loves his ice & ice water (from time to time)
    me no care

    .
    he tracks down a repair man
    ...cost::>> approx. $69 US dollars
    .....same job in-foreign, WOULD have cost much more, or repairman would have told him/me/us to buy a new frige
    .
    .
    New Bath Area Renovation

    .
    landlord paid the guy who worked with him to do the work:::>> Ja$3,000 ... approx ,,,,, i.e., US $25
    ....they worked from sun-UP 'til sun-DOWN
    ......worked like Georgia-slaves

    though not complete,
    i think this is gonna be the BIGGEST bathing area in Lucea-country
    ....me no know WHAT his from-foreign girlfriend/wife did to him
    :-(

    his plan
    is to put in a bath-tub

    the area is so big,
    he can put in a sauna,
    a hot tub and some more stuff

    watching Jamaican guys work,,, do their thing, always amazes me
    ...great skills
    ...make it look so easy
    ....master craftsmen, with NO formal training
    ....ultra-QUALITY work
    .........stuff put together to LAST,, long time

    ..more soon come..

    down-side of a chill-out day::>>> me and landlord spend more time chattin'
    'bout this & that..

    me ask questions

    he fill me in

    the back-stories on folks in the neighborhood, around town, around Negril, etc etc are mind-blowing .... at least the stories blow my from-foreign mind with from-foreign sensibilities

    ...Too TOO MUCH information
    .
    .
    yep yep
    i gotta spend more time at a resort, or someplace
    .
    .
    ... to be continued..

    more goat stuff

    .
    .
    i told my Lucea-mentor,
    what landlord said
    as to why he no like to eat curried goat

    she shook her head
    and said:::>>>>> that's a different *part* of the animal ... he has no worry.


    she should know,
    'cause after all,
    one of her expertise is in agricultural-science matters
    .
    .
    .
    when,
    curried goat was ready
    told step-father
    new *plan*::>>> THREE plates..!!...
    one for me
    one for landlord ....he changed his mine when i told him 'bout the wake for my mom
    one for landlord's mom

    she too
    no know about my goat thing-y

    hadn't seen her all day
    and
    we never know when she gonna come home from working from where-ever

    but,
    miraculously
    when i brought the 3 plates of yummy food back to the house
    she
    arrived

    weird how things go in Jamaica
    .
    .
    ....more soon come..
