Good morning! Are you up yet? What's your plans for today?

[Jshooter71]

Thanks Bill… that was a pretty good Truck race, we watched it last night. I hope the Cup race will be a good one to watch too.

Let's not forget Xfinity.. I have all of them set to record all season. Right now I have the IMSA 12 hours of Sebring playing and have NHRA recorded for later. I usually put these on while I'm tinkering in the Red Shed. Betty Lou likes watching the cup and xfinity but don't care much about the rest of it.

What cable channel are y'all watching?
I like NASCAR and NHRA Drag racing.

I stream. I pay for the FUBO package and it comes with 100 hours of recording space. Betty Lou has her own login so she can do her thing separate from mine. With every thing we subscribe to we still save more than $50 a month over cable and get everything we want.
We also have ROKU and Paramount+ that comes to around $12 a month and everything else is free streaming. Those are all the odd movie channels and such.

I always have some airgun, hunting, fishing or some type of outdoor activity streaming in the Red Shed when I'm in there.

I’m still a knucklehead with Direct TV. My wife has always been the negotiator, but there’s not much to negotiate after 14 years of use. We’re wanting to ditch the satellite this year and go streaming, like everyone else that knows how to do it. I don’t know how, yet.

In my case, I can't cut the cord 100%. You still have to have internet access. Some folks do it with a cell service and some of those companies are promoting it for streaming but it's somewhat still touch and go with full house coverage. Sure, you can add access points, at a cost.
We still have our fiber optic internet service and Betty Lou likes her house phone. So we are somewhat "tethered" and it runs to a company supplied pod. I have installed 2 more of my own wireless routers.. one in the bar area and one in the Red Shed. They are hard wired back to the pod and daisy chained, one off of the other. So I have Ethernet and wireless throughout. I get unlimited streaming/internet at 300mps and the phone for around $80 a month. We have 5 TVs (never more than 2 on at a time) a laptop, the desktop 2 tablets and my cell (that runs from it when I am at home) and we never experience any lag.
One of the nice things is that we don't have boxes everywhere. All the TVs are wifi compatible.... one single remote for each. The big TV in the living room has 2 twin remotes... His and hers.

Nice. We’re going to get our minds clear on this and do something similar this year, I think.

We dumped direct back at the beginning of the month and watch YouTube TV. We've got starlink for our Internet provider which is the only game in town for where we live. There is no cord to cut🤔😂. We've got Netflix and prime so we are covered. Our YouTube TV is free as we're part of our SIL/Daughter's plan and we had prime because of free shipping already so Netflix is the only additional cost. Wife got tired of the channel blackouts on direct due to contract negotiations during football season and at other times also. The thing that bugs me is my wife is the one who wanted Netflix but all she seems to watch is those fake unreality shows.

I have no idea how to even turn the memsahib's idiot box on.  She's got two or three remotes.  Takes a degree in AV engineering to run any dang TV, game box, or computer these days.  I'd have disappeared from this forum years ago if La Esposa didn't keep these confounded modern inconveniences running.

By god I'm more ignorant than all of y'all!

And darn proud of it too!

If I had a river dock like you do I would gladly give up screen time too!

I do all my bible study on my computers and it is a great time saver so, I am glad I have them.

I have Cable internet and use it for streaming along with Roku. I admit I spend too much time on YouTube though.

You are all right… I don’t watch a lot of TV, but more than I should. And the girls don’t really either. We do, however, spend too much time on our idiot devices, and sprinkle some TV on top of it all. We’ll get it figured out. I think our problem is 2 of our 3 TVs are a little bit older and don’t have internet, or wireless I should say. And like Carter and Matt, we’d be better off not knowing or having them. But, some of the stuff we have do make the world go around here. If we’re going to have them, we need to spend more of our money and time a little better.

Good morning GTA! Happy Monday! I got up around 0540 and I’m having my coffee. I’m contemplating my day, in case I don’t have a job today. I’ll have to call the office around 0730-0800, unless they call me first. But, if they don’t have something this morning, I’ve got stuff around here I can do.

[avator]

Mornin'
Up at 5 and put the coffee on. Nobody else up yet  but it won't be long.
Supposed to be 60 and windy today with no rain and sunny skies.
I'll most likely fire up Casting Corner because I need to run more 217 20 RF and the NTM 217 17 WC mold should arrive today. It was supposed to deliver on Friday but didn't make it.
It is possible that Betty Lou could get the urge for yard work and change my plan.

[Back_Roads]

 Seasonally wee bit chilly and windy here today. Still plan on going to work, later I may test some cast projectiles in the AEA Standard .303, and the Recluse.

[Ronfiveo]

I don't have any chiseled in stone plans today, so I'll just take it as it comes.

Good morning! I am up after 5 hours and 30 minutes in bed I got 4 hours and 3 minutes of restful sleep and 1 hour 18 minutes of light sleep.     
   I feel well rested and great this morning!

 I plan on getting a couple of hours mowing done today after it warms up a bit. It is 44°F currently and forecast to get up to 69°F today but there is a 42% chance of rain this afternoon between 1 and 3 PM. I usually avoid work of all types on Mondays but plan on taking Tuesday/tomorrow off, this week. Now that I put it in writing we'll see... LOL
