The chicken coop is done. Luis did manage to find everything that we needed (except screws) by driving around on Trash Days. Today he even found a full 4x8' sheet of plywood, uncut, for the roof. I couldn't believe it. Everything is painted and the roof is shingled. Luis just has to finish up the chicken wire around the run, and then we are ready. The pullets (currently named Buffy, Ginger and Annie, but that could change) are due to arrive on Tuesday. The kids are so excited, and so am I. :)

Have I mentioned that Isabella started dance through Park & Rec? She had her second class this weekend and loves it. She looks miserable the entire time, but she is actually enjoying it tremendously.

I'm glad May is here. April is a *dead* month for PBK, always has been. I'm looking forward to doing more work again. The lack of orders leads to an April Doldrums for me, and I become really lethargic about PBK stuff. I need to get to work on the the new catalog pages, add a couple of new items, return emails more promptly.
