I sort of like the idea of posting things in the internet when no one reads it. Sad though, since I thought that blogging is all about sharing your thoughts with other people and get their feedback.

So today is Saturday and it started slightly unusual as compare to previous weeks. The alarm on my husband (MR in the all future references) cell phone went off at 7am and he moved out to the living room (our small agreement, since I am very very sensitive sleeper in the mornings). Around 9am I started to hear noises and realized that he woke up and went to feed our adult cats (our own) and 4 foster kittens, that we have right now. Very unusual, since he sleeps late when he doesn't have to go to work.

He was about to make coffee, when plumber came in. I schedule an appointment to do an estimate for our basement renovation (we had water coming through he walls into the basement during last big storm in NJ and that expedite our next renovation project. (I wanted to renovate a kitchen first, but it looks like I am out of luck). After plumber left we had a breakfast. I had the same cereal as I had the day before and almost every morning for the past several month (I order it from California, since no local store has it) and MR had Special K with strawberries. Call it healthy breakfast, but we just love it simple.

Later on the day we did some work on a house - I started to pack basement and moving stuff to the second floor, two loads of laundry and made flower baskets for the hanging flowers I purchased as few weeks ago at Rutgers Ag Field Day. MR on the other hand made the box and the rails for the ottoman that now I have to upholster. We do a lot of things our self in the house and you probably will be reading a lot about remodeling, new design and satisfaction from all that hard work.

So around 1pm, I realized that we don't have anything for lunch and I offered to go and get fat cats. Rutgers is also known for the fat cats - type of the sandwich on the itallian roll with hamburger, mozzarella sticks, and french fries. It can have a lot of different combination of meat and veggies, but french fries are the must. My favorite is Fat Sam with cheese steak, chicken, fries, mozzarella stick, lettuce, tomato, mayo and humus instead of ketchup.

After lunch we worked for a little bit longer on a house and MR took a quick nap before we went to see Iron Man 2. So, what is the must when you go to see the movie in the theatre, yes, you right - the pop corn and the soda. We split medium size snacks around 6pm. I like action movies and I like how almost unknown actor with a lot of problem in his life made such a huge comeback. Robert Downy Jr - way to go. I like most of action movies and this one is not an exception. I always rate movies I watch, so this one gets 3.5 Julie's stars out of 5.

I hope my posts are not boring despite they so long, I just have this urge to write about m life, to share. Like now you are probably thinking that after all that food that I already put into my stomach during the day (almost no liquid) I will be finishing the blog and getting ready to sleep. Surprise - I am sloooooly eating my favorite ice cream - Haagen Dazs Mango. This is the best ice cream in the world - reach, creamy with pieces of mango. If you haven't try it before - try it, highly recommended.

I am planning to read my book a little bit now and then go to sleep. One more day of pottering around ahead of me. Yey!
