Just go home from dinner at the Lees. Sister Lee had gone to so much work to make a lovely Dominican dinner for us and the Ruckers. It was delicious! They are such warm and gracious people. Pres. Lee is better at acting out Spanish words that I am at speaking them. The Ruckers spent two years in Argentina as welfare missionaries so Sister Rucker understands alot of the language.
Today the internet people came and found that our internet had been shorted out by water in the box down stairs. So they got that fixed. Hooray! Then the stove repairmen came and fixed the stove so we now have a functioning stove. And we still have power. But when we tried to turn off the air conditioner off, it wouldn't turn off. The remote control would not work at all and there are no controls on the unit itself. I was just grateful that it quit working when the air conditioner was on instead of off. Luckily when we got home I tried putting in new batteries and it worked! So we are all fixed up....
William came up a couple of times today to talk to Scott. He has been offered another job down by the ocean doing security. The job pays more but when he went to tell the building landlord she offered to match what the other job would pay. I don't know what he will do but we will certainly miss his smiling face if he isn't here. I know if would be hard for him to leave Scott because he and Wilton seem to view him as their dad. So Scott and I both have been sad thinking of him leaving.
We came out of Lees and Scott went over to talk to the night guards. When we drove in the other night one of them was setting on a chair by the road and my husband, being funny, drove towards him like he was going to run over him. He jumped out of the chair with his shotgun and I was just glad he didn't shoot us. Scott went back down and took him some chocolate to apologize. So tonight he stopped to talk to him and the other night guard. They had many questions about the church and what we were doing here. No one here can believe missionaries come here to work for the church and are paying for it themselves.
