October 29th--Sunday

First off I would like to apologize for yesterday's rather down post.  I try not to do that, but obviously didn't try hard enough.  Gideon woke up in a good mood today and was pretty much back to his normal self.

Today I had a different type of down day.  A rainy Sunday that I could have spent working and decided not to.  I did dishes, laundry, chatted with the family, organized my room a bit, read school emails and training websites, spent too much time on Facebook, took a nap and spent enough time researching about hacks for the headboard of my new bed that I could have made it in the same amount of time.  The reasons I am looking for hacks are because I really don't want to attach it to the wall and I kind of wanted to use it as a foot board instead of a headboard and it would need to be free standing for that to happen.  Online I found that some people had luck with adding legs and others that just didn't attach it to the wall and have not had any issues.  Here is a link to the Brimnes headboard.  The best hack was to buy 2 and attach them to each other.  I think that will make my room too small, but I may measure and consider that more.

Around 7:30 PM I checked my lack of steps on my Fitbit for the day and had around 1700.  The rain seemed to be at a lull so I got dressed (yes, I also spent the day in my pj's) and went for a walk.  It was just sprinkling and the winds were mostly not too strong.  I tried doing some jogging but there was the occasional slippery spot so I chose to just walk.  There were a couple of almost slips that had I been jogging at the time I am not sure would have ended so nice.  The walk was lovely and rejuvenating.  Less than an hour after getting home it is pouring again.  I didn't end up with my daily goal of 10,000 steps, but 6800 is way better 1700. 

The walk was lovely but my happy for today is that Gideon woke up happy.  He went straight to look for his parents, but that is fine.  He slept through the night and had a good day.  Now if we can keep that nasty food coloring away from him. 


Pictures from tonight's walk.
The State Capitol Building.

 I see a face-the eyes are the windows.

I guess I should have stopped longer when taking this ghoul picture.
