Me on Monday

Yesterday, I took the time to do something I've been wanting to do for a long, long time. In fact, it's been on my "to do" list for ages.

Do you have a hard time keeping up with the shows you are watching? Do you forget shows you are trying to watch? Do you forget which streaming service they are on? Well, I do. It's all so much to remember.

First let me start with the streaming services. We PAY for Netflix. We donate to PBS, so we have that. We get Hulu free through T-Mobile. Then we have HBO Max, Prime and Disney + because other people have logged in to them on our tv either here or at the beach. We have YouTube TV which means we can have it all on 5 televisions. We have it on 4 tv's at home and 1 at the beach. That means we get ALL of those streaming services on all of those tv's. 

Are you still with me? Kind of overwhelming and hard to keep track of. So many shows. Hmmm, I was watching Ozark. Now what service? What season? Am I caught up? So darn much confusion. I decided to get a hold on all of it.

 I have painstakingly added shows that I hear about from friends, family or fellow bloggers to the "my stuff" or "my list" part of each streaming service. Yesterday, I took the time to make an extensive list---ONLY of what I'm currently watching or want to watch very soon. That doesn't even count the hundreds---yes at least a hundred others that I want to watch sometime. Here it is:

As I went through each service, there were so many shows or series that I had forgotten I was watching. Now I have a list to get started on. That makes me happy. I have a serious problem when things are all jumbled in my brain. I need to be able to "see" it! I completely forgot that I was watching "Baptiste" and now it's already up to Season 3. Same with "You" and maybe "Sinner". I just cannot keep up with all of it. Now hopefully I can. 

Oh wait, add to all of this, the regular network shows that we dvr! I could probably stop right here and have enough things to watch for the next five years!

Have you tamed an overwhelming job lately? I would love to hear about it!

  1. So many shows, so little time! This is a good idea - isn't it hard to remember where you were watching something? Interesting to see that we share quite a few shows that we are both watching.
