So, you all read last time that I have a thing for frogs right? A pal (tabe7475) on a forum I belong to was outside one evening and almost stepped on a wee toad. She picked it up and thought, I will bring it inside and take pictures! Apparently her daughter has a fabulous dollhouse and she used the furniture as props! I asked her if I could post some of the pictures here....

And...my absolute fave:

Don't worry, no toads were injured while making these photos! The "model" was let go shortly after!

Well, I am going to try to get into this blog stuff again!

I don't know why it is so hard for me to sit down and write!

After many days of rain, we finally got a couple of dry days to mow the lawn. Then last night there were more storms rolling in so we only got to do a few fireworks. We will try to do some more tonight....one good thing about living in the country!!

I have had a thing for frogs since I was a little girl. We have been seeing all of these tiny frogs hopping across the roads lately, so one day I stopped and got about 20 frogs! Colben, the 5 year old thought this was really cool so we went and got about 20 more...we let them go in the garden, maybe they will help keep the bad bugs away?

Here is a pic of the frogs in the little cooler we put them in:



I have also started making hair clips and ponytail holders. I really love it and hopefully I will find my niche in the hair accessory market that is so popular these days!
Here are a few faves:



Time to feed the dogs now.....

Oh no! People (Judy) are asking me for my blog url so I guess this means I need to write something!

I have not had many opportunities to take new pics lately and Saturday I was able to get some great shots! I used the digital camera and left the freakin' date stamp on!!! That means I have to go through and try to "erase" that damn stamp!

I took pictures near an old abandoned trailer home down the road from where we live. I asked permission first! So many cool things...there were oodles of baby food jars with different nuts and bolts and what have you in them! Old Chevy trucks, an old wood burning stove. *sigh* The guy who owns the land thought I was crazy when I told him I wanted to take pictures of old stuff!

On the home front, my back has been giving me fits and Tim (the boyfriend) broke his wrist and of course Workman's Comp. is trying to screw us over! Our refrigerator stopped working last week (thank goodness I checked the milk before using it) and this week we have ants trying to get in the house!!! At least it is cooler and gas went down to $2.84 (YAY).

I saw a cute little girl with her grandpa today. Watching her made my damn hormones do flip flops. Do all of these people who have children just top get money from the government realize that there are many people out there who would give their right arm to have a child? I guess not.....
