    Thank you sir... for the good wishes...
    Yes... it would be cheap.. but I wanted it done yesterday and there was no time to go find those two tanned young studs... :biggrin_2559:
    Besides, it's hard to find reliable labor around here... We set appointment with some one, they promise to show up and they don't... Specially on a beautiful hot sunny weekend.. :biggrin_2552:

    For instance, some guy had told me a few days ago he could clean the land, cut the grass, blah, blah blah... very cheap.. I went to his house yesterday, but there was nobody there....
    So, I had an old guy helping me.... but he is 82 yrs old... still a very active man... but couldn't do much.... only light stuff... He left early and I kept going and going... filling up those bags with a shovel...
    Real state lady told me someone might come see the house tomorrow.. I will keep my fingers crossed... Have heard that millions of times... :rolleyes:

    View attachment 304711 Felt pretty sick last night... all night long... went to bed shivering with chills and some fever...
    Woke up feeling hot and high temperature... almost 100F was feeling pretty sick, had strong diarrhea all night... lost a lot of liquid.... and vomited....
    At 4 am was able to sleep...
    Woke up this morning feeling a little better but very weak and no appetite.... and still some fever...
    Walked to the market nearby and had some coco nut water.. that's pretty good for conditions like these...
    Brought 2 coco nuts here and that's all I feel like having today...

    Still feeling some pain in my abdominal area near the esophagus...
    I believe this was some kind of virus... something that I ate.. maybe the lettuce wasn't really clean...
    This is not the first time that I contract gastrointestinal virus in Brasil.... :biggrin_25513:

    Have you considered having Frank draw the blood test ? I think he does blood tests as a hobby ?
    Just a joke Rock's.

    :biggrin_1square10: Yeah... at this point I just hope the pain goes away... I get worried about stories about folks that started feeling a pain in the abdominal area and ended up going to emergency and having surgery... others died..
    I had a MRI of my abdominal area about a week ago and everything showed fine... So... hopefully it will get better....

    Take care of yourself, first then worry about the problems you are faceing.
    It sounds like help there is pretty much on par as it is here, I don't know why, but I had it in my mind that general labor would be easy to find over there.
    It would be nice if your real estate people does have someone show up and buy you out, though the way it sounds with dealing with anything official, I can't imagine how much trouble or how long it take to transfer title to land. lol
    get some rest and keep us updated on your condition puleeze.
