Netflix Stream Team

New Adventures and Netflix

This post is part of my #StreamTeam series for Netflix about what we as a family are doing in the New Year.

Our Netflix Shot

This year is off to a great start around here. We are gearing up for a great year ahead. One new thing that we, or rather, I, am doing is a daily vlog. While the family is appearing on various videos we haven’t gone all out and made it a completely family vlog like one of my good friends, Annie of Stowed Stuff. She inspired me to start a daily vlog and so far I’ve done it every day since New Year’s Day. That is pretty good for a guy who consumes media way more than he makes media. But that is going to change over the course of the year. My goal is to vlog each day for 2016, something that completely doable. I started taking a photograph every day for a year in 2005 and I’m about to hit year 11 in April.

This month has also been about watching some shows on Netflix. For me, personally, I look for shows to watch during my break at work. I get an hour break and so pick an hour show to watch. This past month I watched Marco Polo and Sense8. Both shows are Netflix Originals and they are amazing. I can’t watch them with the family but I do enjoy them in the personal time that I have. I’m really looking forward to the new seasons of Daredevil, Longmire and the new show Luke Cage. I’m also looking forward to watching Orange is the New Black and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt with Allison. Continue reading New Adventures and Netflix →

Skylanders Sunday: Unboxing Nightfall & Sea Shadow

Photo-A-Day #3941

I Unbox Skylanders SuperChargers Dark Element Character Nightfall and Her Sea Vehicle Sea Shadow.

Overall is twas a quiet day today. Last night I had to go to a different building than the one where I usually work. I was there almost entirely on my own. Two other people were in the building and they were on other floors. The snow hit us pretty good but was easily cleaned up when I got home. I was able to snowblow all three driveways and the long stretch of sidewalk plus the back patio in about an hour. Then it was a good sleep day and back up to head to work again.

I didn’t have much going on but I did have some Skylanders that I hadn’t opened yet. I haven’t been playing Skylanders much lately, the Wii U has been occupied by Andrew and Eva playing Nintendoland. Maybe I’ll try and get Andrew to play Skylanders SuperChargers with me this week.
