I just love Mario. My handyman.

Mario is Anita´s borther and the man who remodeled my kitchen after last year´s fire. I still owe him part of the money from some plumbing he did after that but I have begged him to charge me and he won´t do it. He told me the last time that after all the money I had transfered to him against his will, I only owed him the materials and he has the tickets somewhere. But he also comes to help me out even when he is working. Yesteday I went to the garden to pick a bay leaf and discovered that the lemon tree was dying from thirst. I could not find any faucets that would open that part of the garden. And Anita left the hose in the floor and I just don´t reach there. So I called Mario. He will come this evening after work on his way home just to help me out. And that is only done out of love. He won´t charge me for it as he did not charge me when he took the giant King size bed upstairs and brought down a smaller one for my bedroom. He even made my bed with his son while I took a nap on one of the living room sofas. I have some ice cream to offer him when he comes. I invited him for lunch but he said he has too much work. No wonder. He works well and he is clean and honest. He did a job for my friend Alejandra some days before Christmas. I went with him to Alejandra´s house the first time and saw the mess she had in her bathroom. Later on she sent me a picture of the "after" look and I could see that she was elated. Do you have a "Mario" in yor life? I´m very happy to have met him.
