My Second Week
Wednesday, October 15, 2008 @ 5:20 PM
A bit jumbly and in no particular order................
We have had four more volunteers to pay their Community fees a year in advance ..........making a total of eight !! I'm delighted about that because it's made a big difference to our financial situation which could only have been described as disastrous ! ...................and equally as important to me is that we must be doing something right for owners to display that much trust and confidence !!
Jose went through Septembers' accounts with me and wanted to make sure that I understood and was happy with everything !!!!! Which I did and was !! What a difference ! This man has to be heaven sent !!! He tells me that we shall go through the accounts together at the end of each month ..................ok boss !!!
I've now got the hang of looking at the Community's bank account on-line and can see exactly what's what at any time, and I didn't need the offered lesson from Jose on how to do it !!
As we have no money to spend, I've got hub turning the irrigation system on and off once a week voluntarily, and also some volunteers are keeping the communal gardens tidy.............also, nearly everyone is sweeping the bit of pavement/road outside their house themselves..............the exceptions are, of course, tenants rather than owners !!!!!!!
Very good for building up community spirit !!!! Hub's also done a few light bulb changes, bless him !
