Better Than A Gym

And I'm sure it provides entertainment for the neighbors. It took me an hour to get them all in the pen today. Those freaking Easter chicks are devious. I knew they would be trouble. Anything coming from the BBAB is nothing but trouble. The blue one (Sky) got loose in the house. I got all the others into the crate to take them out except for him. He would not be cajoled, he would not be tempted by food, he just wanted to explore the house. Then he did the same thing outside. And, oh no, I believe Tatiana, my beautiful chicken, may actually be a Tony! We'll find out in a couple of weeks. Anyway, as I have figured it up, I paid $25 to join this gym and in two months it has cost me less than $30. I've lost three pounds since we got the chickens. I know that's not much in your eyes, but for me anything is a great accomplishment, especially since up until now nothing else has worked. Maybe I'll just keep the freaking Easter chickens so I can chase them!

So I'm told today is Friday. I have no idea, as usual. I had to ask Ariel this morning. And as it is apparently Friday, I have much to do today. I leave you with a question regarding color and palettes (this is an interactive post). First I must tell you a story. When I was in eighth grade, I had a favorite winter outfit (keep in mind that winter here means 50 degrees). I had a black velvet skirt and a cream turtle neck mohair sweater. I also had wavy, dark brown hair down to my butt. With this outfit, I would tie yarn hair ties (remember those?) around my pony tail and they were pale pink, pale blue and cream. I thought it all looked so good together. I loved that outfit. Of course, in high school, my multi-colored Peter Max jeans took honors as the favorite thing to wear. Anyway, what was your favorite color combination/outfit when you were just a kid? Inquiring minds want to know!

And I almost forgot. I've got 60 pounds of plastic Mardi Gras beads. I have an idea for using them, but if you have any ideas or want some of them, let me know!
