GooooOd morning!!
Dang, I am tired. Long day yesterday, but good. I took lots of pics from the graduation but I have no idea how they came out. I used the zoom lens, and tried to change up some of the settings, higher ISO, bracketed the exposre a touch higher, but they all look pretty dark and blurry from the ceremony. My hands shake too much to get any longer shutter speeds, so I'll have to see what I can get accomplished with Photoshop.

I wish I didn't have to babysit and clean today- it would have been nice to sleep in a bit. And 2+ hours sitting on bleachers last night does not do well for the old bones. I am moving pretty slow this am.;)

Tip on Tuesday

Anyone have a good one for getting BBQ out of beige carpet?? I am going to try vinegar, but if you have some magic solution, let me know :)
 
Phyllis- I hate days like that! How is the Clean-a-Thon going?

Hi Laurie- hope you and your dog are doing great today!

Trudy- mmmm!! Your dinner sounded yummy!! My SIL made "Bang Bang Shrimp" for our Father's Day meal. Its a copycat of Bonefish Grill, and wow was that good too. Sorry about the heartburn. Cait takes Gaviscon OTC for her heartburn and relux, that she has had since she was born. It works much better for the occasion heartburn than Tums. Enjoy your day today!


Lots of hugs and love to everyone!
 
morning all - today is one of those days I am glad I am working inside and can't see out-and that we have AC at work- it will be 94 today- even I won't be able to breathe- shortly I will make my dog come back inside for the day. He goes out at 5 when I get up to enjoy being a dog (does his business and lays down in his pen sniffing the air!) Not sure what the day will bring, but I am willing to give it a whirl!
 
Chris, i'm with ya, being pooped. i was up at 4 FREAKING A.M.!! well, at least i don't have to babysit or clean. i sure hope your grad photos tured out OK. but TG for Photoshop! i would try vinegar on the stain. my sister once got blood out of a white carpet with vinegar and water and some patience. good luck! the clean-a-thon went well. i am now the proud owner of a clean family room.

Laurie, it's going to be HOTTT here today, too. i got my little old window AC going at about 6 a.m. usually it can keep my entire downstairs cool, if i get it started before the inside of the house gets to be above 73. we'll see how it goes. i am glad your pooch has got a new lease on life.

Trudy, if you figure out a heartburn cure, let me know. i take Pepcid every, every day. in my case, i think i could cure it if i lost about 20 lbs.... the shrimp sounded wonderful. but shellfish is one of the MANY things off my menu. honestly, you'd think i'd be skinny as a stick....

well. so far this morning i made a cranky page about food that i'll post tomorrow. gonna go take a shower, get dressed and go to the Mall, where i will buy The Grandmen some clothes to send off in the next Gramma Box. then i'll have a 5Guys bunless burger and 10 french fries in the food court and go on back home.

any ideas for dinner when it's 94 degrees out and you don't want to turn the oven on?

happy Tuesday! stay cool. (what am i saying. you all already ARE!:becky: )
 
ugh im exhausted yesterday was NON STOP!!! swimming all day then i went for a 2 hour walk...didnt get home til like 930 lmao....and passed out!!
 
Morning ladies... I slept in this morning until 7:am yesssss, it felt good to catch up on my sleep!! My favorite day of the week and not too much to do today. Off to the farmers market to get some fresh fruit and veggies and then back here to hopefully scrap the day away. Perhaps pull out the vacuum cleaner.

Chris - Sorry you have aching bones today, sitting on bleachers will do that to you!! Can't wait to see your photos!! I hardly have heartburn anymore, used to get it quite often but have limited my bread intake and that seems to help! Just over did it on the food and paid for it on Father's day. That's what I get for eating like a pig!!! Hope your BBQ stain comes out!! Sorry I don't have any recipe for you, I don't have much carpet in my house, only in the bedrooms downstairs. Good thing too because I really am a klutz and spill everything!!

Laurie - Try to keep cool today, would like some warm weather, but not quite that hot!!

Phylis - I know that my heartburn would go away completely if I lost some weight too!! Darn menopause and thyroid are all working against me!! I am afraid to step on the scale anymore and not sure what else to cut out of my everyday meals, I refuse to starve myself. I eat very healthy and I love my food so I should enjoy it and not worry about my weight so much as long as I keep active and I am healthy. So far I am. I think about going back on weight watchers, but its hard to get motivated to do so. When its really hot in my house I usually make a chicken ceasar salad for supper. Then all I have to do is cook up a bit of chicken breast. Hope you enjoy your day!!

Kristy - Swimming sounds like a great way to spend the day!! Great exercise but tiring for sure!

Talk later... hope you all have a great Tuesday!! :wave:
