So, either Good or Omen (my new pet names for the froggy’s 😊) returned last night to moon me the first time I attempted to take a picture – like he literally turned his butt to me as I went to snap the shot 🤪! The other was MIA for the night although I have a third back yard frog who likes to hang out on my grill’s propane tank. How do I know it’s not either Good or Omen? This one’s bigger and needs a name – maybe Lucky? 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀
I’m also posting a short video of my little friend. I tried to catch him eating the bugs attracted to the light, but he was not cooperating. Probably still annoyed I was pointing the camera at him 😆.
On the ant front – it looks like I may have to take my complaint to the warranty folks. You know the people who can’t get my name right? Yeah, them and I’m not even sure they’ll help 🙄. At this point I may wait 2 more weeks and see if the ants start to resurface and then find a company that can help.
And as if the email from the builder stating they wouldn’t help wasn’t bad enough, the return email from the builder addressed my name in the email incorrectly, of course. They used just my exes last name, not the hyphenate 😡. Trust me when I say I sign all professional emails with my hyphenated name. So, learn from me and please respect peoples preferred names (especially transgendered person’s new name – don’t “deadname” them).
On the Olympic front – I stayed up waaaaaay too late watching tennis and men’s beach volleyball 🤷🏼♀️. I got caught up in the Tiafoe (USA) vs Tsitsipas (Greece) match which unfortunately Tiafoe lost and the US men’s beach volleyball USA vs Brazil which YAY we won. I also caught Naomi Osaka’s (Japan) match and it didn’t go well for her 😞. But I am still a fan 👏👏👏
*POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT* Lastly, let’s talk about Simone Biles for a moment. Of course, the internet trolls are on about how she “quit” the team finals. And while yes, she did withdraw, it’s not as simple as she wasn’t doing well competitively so she quit. She had enough sense and mindfulness to realize she was hurting the team because she wasn’t feeling right mentally. So she opted to give them a fighting chance to win a medal instead of dragging them down and she stepped away. Sometimes it’s braver to step away in times of crisis than become a burden to your team. I salute her for knowing the difference. I’m so glad these younger athletes are really shinning a light on mental health in sports.
With all of that being said, I wish you the very happiest of days today!
