So far, I am having a really great year. I continue to receive gifts in honor of the Year of the Rooster.

One Friday there was a chicken in my mailbox at school.

Since there was no note attached I walked around holding up my pencil and asking “Did you put a chicken in my box?”

This garnered me some strange looks. It turned out to be the same friend who found the chicken sweater for me.

I love her!

Then Beekeeper Brian went to a Psychology convention and brought back this for me:

One of the vendors was giving them away. I call it a “ducken.” It sits on my piano and entertains my students. It also makes me smile.

I can’t wait to see what March brings.

According to the Chinese Zodiac, the year 2017 is the Year of the Rooster. I normally don’t pay attention to these things, but we have a Chinese student living with us so I am trying to broaden my cultural horizons.

My celebration began early with a gift from a friend. I love it!

Then Rachel and I were out shopping and saw a Doodle Doo sink strainer. Like the sweater – it was one of kind. Now every time I do the dishes, I am greeted with a cheerful chicken.All this and 2017 is not even a week old yet! I’m anticipating a wonderful Year of the Rooster.
