Good intentions

I started out with good intentions today. Olivia was up at 6:30 this morning and was ready for a nap by 11. I told myself I'd nap for an hour. 2 1/2 hours of light sleep later, I get up. Those kinds of naps don't cut it for me. I wake up feeling like total ick. Splitting headache, groggy, and more tired than before the nap. The rest of my day was shot productivity wise.

Called John to pick up pizza for dinner. Not healthy eating, but I felt blah. He suggested we go for a little Friday night drive. The fresh air seems to have made me feel a little better. We drove out to Runnells to see what it was all about, since we've never been there. Figured we'd better at least see the place once since our address is technically Runnells. Small, quaint little town. Made me miss where I grew up. I suggested moving there, but Alexa & John vetoed that idea:) Alexa calls Des Moines "Little New York." She doesn't want to move further away from Little New York.

We stopped by to visit some friends while out on our drive. Alexa wanted them to add their signatures to her cast.

We got home, pulled in our drive and saw at least 30 deer in the field that meets our back yard. We turned the brights on and sat there for a bit watching them graze. It was pretty cool. Not many people get to see that very often. Another reason why I love living out here.
