Poor Little Frog

Anybody who reads my blog knows about the frog. He had gotten to be quite the pet around here. One time I was trying to see if he was down in the dirt in the flower box so I stuck my finger down in it. Needless to say, he didn't like that idea so he bit my finger. Thank goodness frogs don't have teeth. But it scared the heck out of me. Well, my mom was over here yesterday and when she was leaving, she called to me to come out in the driveway with her. When I got there she asked me if that was my frog. Doug had run over him with the van. The only part that was messed up was one side of his head. Poor little frog. I gave him a proper burial wrapped in paper towels and buried him in the garbage can. So I guess I won't have a pet frog any more. Oh well, something else will come along and get my attention. I wish the hummingbirds would come around. We've only seen 2 this year. We put up feeders and it seems like they don't want to eat now. I think they are the cutest little things. One year all we had to do was go out the front door and we'd see about a dozen out there. I guess I'll have to adopt a fly. They never go away. Everybody join with me and say: "POOR LITTLE FROG!!" Then we'll all gang up on Doug for killing him. :)

OHH MAN! That POOR LITTLE FROG!! He was ugly thing but it's nice to have a pet that you don't have to feed or anythng right?? :)

Maybe something else will come along and give you the pleasure of having a pet.. :)

Yeah, Hummingbirds are real nice.. I killed one when I was younger by accident :( I was wearing bright lime and blue shirt and it attracted one hummingbird to me and I thought it was a big dragonfly or something so I swapped it. I realized it was a hummingbird.. OH MY GOODNESS! I was so sorry but there was nothing I could do for it :(

Sorry to hear your little froggy croaked (with some help from Doug). Maybe you can get yourself a Gecko and do Geico commercials. Ha Ha.

LOL!! Robert is too funny! The frog croaked! Oh well...I know the frog was ugly. I think that's why I liked it. I would pick it up and chase the grandkids with it. And I wonder why they prefer Doug to me! We have alot of frogs up here. I'll just get another one and chase them with it. ;) Am I sick or what?

The frog sounds more like a toad (a type of frog I know). After all, everyone knows that frogs are way cuter than hummingbirds. You always could get a real pet frog like and African Dwarf Frog. They are tiny, silly, and live in fish bowls (please have one gallon of water per frog). The males sing.

About Me

I am now an RN. I love taking pictures, especially of my grandchildren. I love taking care of people and wish there was more time to do it. Management puts so much paperwork and picky stuff on us we really don't have time to do the job we are destined to do.
