I flipped my orange bucket over to catch some rain water (rain was in the forecast, nothing happened) instead of water, I caught Rodney.

| This makes the second animal I've caught in my bucket, I've got to stop doing this. |
Poor baby. He (or she) was happy to be free and I am thankful I discovered my prisoner before our record setting cold front arrived in North Texas.
I now have a couple of lizards living in my little birdhouse. I'm hoping they will keep the bugs away this summer.

| Take a closer look - Rodney's about to pop inside the birdhouse. |
I'm afraid my adventure (the one I hinted at last week) is not a tale of world travel but a sad lesson in 21st century money management. I got a call from my bank fraud hotline a couple of Saturdays ago and was told someone in southeast Texas was using my debit card at the same time I was using it in north Texas. I won't go into details because I have very few and I'm still waiting to hear the outcome of my appeal for the charges (just under $900) made on a counterfeit card with my information on it. This is one of those "What am I supposed to be learning from all this?" life lessons.
I am still learning. I encourage everyone (no matter where you are in life) to keep learning, be open to new experiences... learn from the mistakes of others, and pay with cash.
