Awoke to morning rain. Saw that the two hibiscus plants with flowers still intact are up against the brick-colored, painted redwood chairs of the patio and that the tomato plant up against the pepper plant with one flame red pepper.
Saw 5-gallon buckets (from The Home Depot and Orchard Supply Hardware) capturing dirty, brown water from the gutter of the patio. Removed the second bucket and replaced with empty bucket.
Lots of rain against the south side of the house and droplets of water washing and dripping downward upon the windows clean and right through the screen as seen through the upstairs computer room.
Jose C. from `J & H Appliance Repair` came over for one hour (between 09:00am to 10:00am) and repaired the broken rubber piece: removed and replaced with a part meant for a `Guido` who didn’t want to pay regular price of $75.00 but from him, only $25.00 (with $10.00 tip for his `McDonald’s`).
His face looks Mayan, even though he said his parents were from Mexico. I saw a tattoo of four dots in the form of a square located at the left side of his thumb knuckle and another tattoo of spokes on the inside of his left finger somewhere.
We joked around that J stand for Jose and H stands for Hector, which really is Jerry and Harriet. He played cool and professional.
