He lost the job. Another lesson learned.

Today, just a moment ago, at 12:30, the gardener arrived. He said that he was sorry but that he had to take his wife to the hospital because she had a cardiac problem. I said I was sorry from the door. He asked if we could leave it for another day and I answered that I was sorry but that he had lost the job. I did not say "tough luck" but the words were in my mind. You know, it could be true. But after all I had thought, after all that you told me and after all that Tania told me, I decided that my grass is better left to become high weeds than to open my house to maybe a burglar. It is now a no-no. And that goes for other gardeners or workers who come to ring my bell to tell me that they can do several jobs. It is a pity that Luna has not learned to mow the lawn. But she does other things so I cannot expect miracles from her.
