So I thought I’d share this story that happened to me tonight when I went to water my herb garden. 🪏 🪴

Filled up my watering can as normal, nothing amiss until I started watering things. Then I was thinking what the heck, the water is barely dribbling out. To my shock there was a small green tree frog sticking out of the top.

I left it beside one of my plants for a bit to see if it would keep crawling out onto if, tried pouring more water… nope, it was 100% stuck.

Did I spend 30 minutes trying to get this guy out? Yes, yes I did.

This included cutting the spout of my watering can, pliers, bending of plastic and lots of swearing… Kermit hopped away and is now telling all his friend about his crazy evening. (Seriously, there so loud outside my window right now)

I know many folks wouldn’t have spent so much time and effort to help - but I’m way too soft hearted to not at least try.

Anywho - tree frogs on the island, specifically in Nanoose are alive and ribbiting!

Picture for attention - and dearest mods please don’t delete - this is not a business, only trying to promote connection

I’m trying to get the momentum going again on a Facebook group I started to try to connect more with other Neurodivergent (or neurospicy) women on Vancouver Island

In true neurodivergent fashion - I got super busy and overwhelmed with work and health issues so my page got a bit stagnant - BUT with less work chaos and the nicer weather coming I’m hoping to use it to connect with others.

I am personally missing connections in my life of people that just ‘get it’ and it can be so hard to connect with others. Plus, just being there to help support, vent and listen can be so invaluable to someone.

Anywho… I’ll stop ranting but if you’d like to join the page please DM me as I cannot share the link here.
(Trying to keep it just to Vancouver island for meetups - unless you’re moving here soon or willing to travel!)
