Patty sent me a surprise the other day--a snappy new frog necklace to remind me of the little green guys in my pond. I love it because when the real ones bail on me, I still have a little one to wear close to my heart. And he's not hopping away anytime soon.
I love that Patty. :) It's stuff like that which makes me happy.
It rained yesterday. Yep. Real honest-to-goodness rain--and hail. I'm still trying to figure out how it could be 100+ degrees outside and ice cubes rain from the sky. It's almost like God was saying "Hey! It's raining, let's have a party! I'll bring the ice for the cocktails!" or something like that. I was just thankful for the rain.
On another note, the frog population is coming along nicely. There are two frogs out there and I spied another tadpole sunning himself the other day. It's amazing how little these frogs are (about the size of my thumb) and how they can grow to be big enough to eat a bird in no time. These two peanuts are just now getting brave enough to sit on the edge of the pond. At the sight or sound of anyone, they zip back into the water like a flash. You've gotta be quick with the flashlight to see them--hence, no photos just yet.
Glad it's Friday. Glad it rained. Glad I've got some frogs back in my life. And glad I've got blog friends who get me. I'm lucky like that.
Happy Weekend, pallies!

That frog necklace is so great. Glad the tadpoles are becoming frogs. You just need to sit there and tell them they just need to stay there and not wander off. Those darn frogs are just like my wandering cats.Take care.
You are just glad, and lucky like that.
Oh that necklace is a delight - frogs have the most wonderful bellies - like silky satin - Seems things are coming along nicely in your neck of the woods - and it's Friday - Yay!
Blogger buds are the best! Nice necklace it is so . . . you.
We didn't get the rain here. We'd be glad to get it, but we didn't.
We are finally having summer weather but that brings thunder, lightning and fires. *sigh* For now they are far away but such is life in the West.
Glad you like your little froggie. And as to the hail - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hail
I thought he was real until I saw the chain attached to him :). I am glad the new frogs are sprouting.
Such a cute necklace! Glad it rain but I'm not a fan of hail. Yay for the frog population growing!
what a cute necklace that is. So we didn't get rain or hail here, does that mean that God didn't invite me to the party?
What a cute frog! I hope you are all ok, and weren't in the path of the 90 mph winds.
hard to imagine a frog eating a bird... sounds more like a big ugly cane toad or something
ohhhh...that little green guy is so cute.....
Cute necklace! Glad you got some rain. It is clouding up and we're hoping it rains here today. It sure would be nice to be able to enjoy the rest of the summer without the worry of wildfires around here! I'm looking forward to seeing frog photos when they finally get brave enough to pose for you! Huge hugs from Colorado!
Yikes...it's been a week since I read your blog. No rain here. OK...we have a loud storm out there now, but nothing other than sprinkles with it. My garden seems to be going good...but it's my first so I don't have much to compare it to! LOL!
That is the cutest frog pendant! What a thoughtful surprise gift! Over here we are enjoying a bit of sun - finally.
