The island
lighter:
The last guest rescheduled for September.
Tomorrow's guest is on schedule to arrive by plane.
I have 4 good reviews. The guy I gave a free night, bc of water on the runway, to gave me 4 stars. Hmmmm, no good deed.
There's a new leak in the roof. It's the wet season. My go-to-guy, who fixes things, is off island till Sunday. I try remaining calm. I think about replacing my "caretaker" who struggles to keep the bikes greased and in any state if repair. At least he seems to be on top of yard work....finally. I'll take the win and choose gratitude.
:: Breathing deeply::.
I want to go in the winter....bring solar tiki torches. New bedding. More towels. Better tv....the one I bought at the little cinder block grocery store has speakers not up to the challenge of crashing waves.
Roof and seawall....replacing rafters....next hills to climbed.

That's great news, Lighter. I hope the roof leak is easy enough to sort out xx
lighter:
Will see about the leak soon enough. My brother going to the cottage this week.
The one renter this month cancelled, then another booked. It's very up and down. I'm trying to stay level and not get tossed around emotionally over it.

lighter:
I notice I feel less at the mercy of the island, the customs agents, the termites, the waves the weather, etc.
My window of tolerance has widened.
