Moved Again

Moved Again

I don’t know what the temperature has been but the sun is hot these days. It’s just intense and sometimes it’s hard to find a shady spot.

I didn’t know if I’d have a place to stay last night so I didn’t check out of the house I was renting. About 4:30 last night, the manager called and said the place was rented and I needed to move out as quickly as possible. Ben had taken the truck so I had no transportation. I waited another ½ hour for Ben but he never arrived. I told the owner of the resort my predicament and they provided a car for me to use.

Just as I arrived the power went off and I ended up packing in the dark. I used a little one cell pen light to help out. I just threw everything into suitcases until they were full. I came back to the resort and my boss had just arrived. I told him I needed a room and they found one for me. I think this is my 7th move in 3 weeks. This is not a lot of fun

I did a couple of dives in the morning but stayed out in the afternoon to do some cleanup of the dive shop. I think I’m making some progress in getting the place the way I want it. I’m still having issues with Ben on occasion. Today he told one of the crew he could dive when I had already told him he needed to stay around and help cleanup. I asked Ben to check with me before making decisions like that.

I also counted up the tips from last week and we did very well. Each of us got $200 so the crew was really excited. I just hope they don’t blow it all and come asking for loans in a couple of days.
