New Grass

We finally put in the Philippine grass. We were undecided at the beginning because we're still slowly putting in plants for our garden. But, the grass really grows fast. Hubby has to mow the lawn every other week, carting the machine here and MLK house and MIL's place. He brought the smaller Bosch machine here but it broke down after using it like twice. So last Wed the Bangla or Pakistani worker who were involved in our house renovation came to see him and take measurements of our lawn. Started work the next day and completed it yesterday.

It looks very green and clean, I feel like rolling on the carpet :) I have high respect for the Bangladeshi or Pakistani workers. Now, they work on their own. They went for Friday prayer yesterday. They can't last time when working for Chinese contractors. They work and learn and find better opportunities. How many of us dare to do that? I've heard many complaints from workers when I conducted my trainings, who are not satisfied with their job and yet they have been there for ages. If you dare to change, good for you.

Having said that, now I'm looking at my old Impiana Laman magazines to get some ideas. We're slowly and steadily on our way for a beautiful garden :)
