My achin' wrist

Work is slowly moving forward on the chicken coop. I'm now rolling my eyes AT MYSELF, yep. Making this 'cute' coop is even pushing MY limits. I promise today, never to judge sweet hubby again, when he sighs REAL loud and shakes his head as I sketch out another project on a scrap piece of paper. I deserve such reaction. I do. Fact.

Yesterday I stained the shakes, painted the interior walls/ceiling, and painted the floor.


This is the color of the walls and ceiling. Why yellow? You ask? Well, I'll give you 3 possibilities and see if you can find the answer... can you tell I have been homeschooling for almost a whole school year and now I can't help but put everything in a multiple choice format, its a known side effect of being a teacher, documented fact.

Choice 1: When chickens see the color yellow it causes them to lay more eggs.
Choice 2: Yellow helps fight chicken depression. Improves their psyche. Nothing worse than a
depressed chicken... all the mopping and sulking... everyone and everything must be
happy and mentally sound on this here farm!!
Choice 3: I went to Lowes and this was the only gallon of exterior paint on the 'mismixed' table
and it cost $5!

So which is it?? I know this is real important stuff but don't waste too much of your day contemplating my coop interior design. Truly... make a guess and then get on with your day... step away from the computer... you can do it.
