Well I am way behind. I am having connectivity issues at home, and internet provider said won't be fixed til Tuesday. Apparently our whole neighborhood is effected. Good news is the video should be up when I get home from church. It might be in two separate videos though, I'm counting on being able to merge them in the back end on YouTube. Time will tell.

Anyways I will try and catch up as I can but I might be a little MIA til Tuesday.

Have a blessed Sunday cadre.
 
I get so sick of my cable/internet provider. It seems that they have you by the...well you know what they have you by. In my area it's the cable company or AT&T. The AT&T is just regular DSL and is much slower speeds than the Cable. Our Cable provider has great speeds, but is really inconsistent. I am supposed to get speeds of up to 300 Mbps, but I rarely get that. I've had as low as 25...but it is usually around 150 to 200 Mbps. It's not bad I guess, but not what I am paying for. But then it is down often. I am willing to pay for service...I just want it to be consistent.

I guess I need to work on my video to do my part for the site also. Great Shave Chad!
 
Have a great holiday. Don’t worry about us, we’ll only burn down a few things depending on what bingo numbers are called.

Thanks Don. Where I live my speeds are abysmal. 20mb down 5mb up. We are supposed to have fiber by end of summer. They are ripping our neighborhood laying the cable.

Well my ribs where amazing yesterday. So good. No real plans today. Going to work a little in the yard as it rained most of yesterday so didn't get any work done. Also going to just try and relax and reflect on the true meaning of Memorial Day. I hope those of you that have the day off work enjoy it and relax.

Well all my outdoor activities are done. But I need to re-dig up the sprinkler when I get home. One problem with losing weight is your fingers get smaller, and I think my wedding ring fell off in the mud. I am extremely hopeful I can find it. I have been beating myself up all night for losing this thing. It is very important to me and I hope I find it.

Have a good day Cadre
