I love weekends. 
I love weekends that I don’t have any “real” plans and can just enjoy the day. I loved today. It was a PERFECT Saturday.
I woke up early this morning (why is it always easier to wake up on Saturday than any other day of the week?). I found out that one of my websites is completely broken. But, I gave up working on it and finished getting ready for the day. I picked up my niece and she and I hit the farmers market. We had a great time and got some great buys. Then we hit the donut house (I’m seeing a trend — I really like a donut breakfast with my niece and nephews on Saturdays). When we were done we went to the mall for a bit to wander around (I found out one of my favorite stores that had shut down reopened under a different name — weird but whatever and she got to wander around her favorite store — Claires). Then I dropped her off at her grandmothers and went on my way. I hit a couple stores I wanted to visit, had a great call with my goddaughter, visited some thrift shops, treated myself to lunch, then headed home to drop off my loot for the day and headed to the library. On my way to the library a friend called and I met her and another friend at the theater to watch Julie & Julie (very good movie by the way). Following the movie we went to dinner.
I know, sounds like a boring day but it was fun.
Unfortunately, the place I went for lunch didn’t have a non-meat option on the menu and I wasn’t in the mood to special order. I wasn’t too worried. But, it kind of did something nasty to my stomach. At dinner I had a delicious spinach salad. It was a great food day (except for the rumbling in my tummy). As we were walking to the car the rumbling got worse. When I got closer the rumbling got unbearable and finally I had to sneak in the door of the establishment I was passing and hit the bathroom. HARD. The past few days of non-movement has subsided. Unfortunately, it subsided in one pass when I was out in a public restroom. Talk about NOT how I planned it.
But, I feel much lighter now. MUCH, MUCH LIGHTER.
All in all, it was VERY good day.
Saturday calories: who-the-heck-knows. I ate out all day today. I made very good choices but nothing that I can absolute count. To be honest, if anything I think I’m low. But, after the continued rumbling in the tummy I’m NOT eating anything else today.

Sounds like you’ve had a really good, relaxing weekend – hope your week follows suit
I haven’t gotten around to watching Julie & Julia but I really REALLY want to.
Isn’t it funny how things like bowel movements always seem to happen in the wrong places? But at least you felt lighter – I know how amazing that feels
