I have satellite net. They take you for fees as it's about all you can get in some areas. I have an old, old style on which programming has been updated but, still NOTHING near the process speeds of today. I have a tablet that works from wifi. Was cheap. Short battery life makes that a PITA but, had to have it for work as we must log in & out on it, do reports, etc. The locator in it reports we are at the store and must be used. It's fine, just wasn't going into big money for the "requirement" of a device. I do NOT have a smart phone, or that could have been loaded with the app. It was $700 vs $50 for working.
Plus my TV is 15 y/o. Still have the old "box" the gov't provided everyone when the this HD stuff changed. OK, I get more than enough channels for ME as I watch little TV. HD was another thing that technology priced high and now the flat TVs are pretty cheap. Will need to replace it in the next yr or so, most likely. Still will only use antennae. I'm not spending for all the "not needed".
Storms interrupt the sat net, so some days you are "down" even when it's not in your backyard.
It's all ok. I grew up with NO TV, then black & white with only a couple channels, then color (poor color)...woohoo. I can deal with it. Less channels is ok with less cost.
Coffee is welcome this morning.
I'm up, feeling good and listening to crowing. Couple of the boys need to be stopped! Just no need for it.
Then, looking at the young ones growing out, looks to be 50/50 on those
I see butchering and buying pullets in my future. It's a time to consider customer base and do I want to provide or not. There's that "earn for retirement 2020" lurking -- decisions. 2 hens are broody now. WTH
Extreme heat, start of some molt, yeah -- feed me and I'll walk around for you time. Egg count down.
It's that time of year again.
Oh a GOOD note, the store where I was working yesterday, put out some frozen turkey breasts for 25 cent a pound! Bought 6 . A recent inventory located them in the freezers behind something and the date said they had to get them outta there! We know they are still good, so
about once a month turkey will be on the menu
DD & I generally cook one and split it...4-5 lb for each of us.
They had about 80 and it lasted about 20 minutes on the floor! Gal putting them out alerted me & another demo person so we could grab some.
That's it for me this morning. I have chores to get done, milking to do, then get ready for work.
Everyone have a blessed day! Enjoy yourself. Love life.
