Costa Rica Cost Of Living Update: An hour dermatologist appointment to get freckles burnt off my face- $100 (see that honey, I TOLD you it was only freckles)
Our perimeter has been breached. Motion sensors alerts us to an intruder on the lower level— just the action my husband has been waiting for. It’s going to be a massacre.
We sprint through the house like the Red Coats were coming, grabbing every conceivable weapon we own. I can’t find the machete so I reach for the broomstick. Somebody has to clean up the mess.
My husband sneaks into the room, flicks on the light, and we find this little guy doing his best to get inside. He briefly glances at us before continuing his agenda, completely uninterested in the two idiots ready to clobber him.
Almost four years in Costa Rica and the only burglars breaking into our house were a kinkajou and frog. I wonder how long it will be before I catch a monkey climbing through my bathroom window.
How strange that Nature does not knock, and yet does not intrude! ~Emily Dickinson, letter to Mrs. J.S. Cooper, 1880
Wonderful quote. My husband just rescued another frog out of a drain.
It appears it is the month of the frogs.
“like the redcoats were coming” perfect visual ! CHARGE ! and then giggles?
Many giggles and no animals were hurt during this story.
