August 10 2015

I went with my son to see The Fantastic 4 and he said it was great. But it wasn't. We played at home and then he rounded off by watching YouTube. I had a lot of cuddles from him on the couch which was lovely. He decided he wasn't recording this week. I returned to the cinema for PIXELS and then recorded a bunch of Minecraft videos for my channel. I went to the gym and felt a little faint so stopped my squats. I think I need to do less weight and more reps. My gains are still occurring though. 

It's Monday morning now and I'm ready to concentrate on not messing up at work. I'm so done with making mistakes. 

I'm also enjoying not ghost hunting for the few weeks between investigating. 

I feel like I should be doing some for my team but that would not be doing it for me. 

Ok.... To work I go. 

August 7th 2015

Oh boy, I'm glad this week is coming to a close. My working week had an error on my part during flicking bad ones out of 15000 printing items. I'd left 75 bad ones in. That is few but it still made me look shit. I'm really trying to be more conscientious. My sons and my YouTube channels  are closing in on 50 views each which is gratifying. It's enjoyable although time consuming. My gym diet and workouts are pushing me towards 150 lbs and I feel stronger. 

All is well. All are happy.  Can't ask for much more than that. 

YouTube

Hoping to start my sons YouTube channel properly tonight as he records a video about his set up and favourite games. I'm really looking forward to him putting videos of gameplay up. How many 7 year olds do that? 

I'm skint now though after setting it all up. 

I spent his morning trying to help fix a fall out involving my family which I married In to. I was not directly involved by my step son is. 

Fingers crossed this discussion will resolve matters. 

Work is fine. All is well. I have no reason to leave the house these days. 

The gym is going ok again after changing gyms. I'm using an app to calorie count as of yesterday. Now I know if I'm eating enough. 

Let's see if results speed up. 

So busy

So much going on. My ghost investigations seem to be coming frequently and that leads to much reviewing of evidence. Aside from that I'm concentrating on YouTube where my son and I both have a channel which we are putting gaming vids on. We both really enjoy it. Yesterday he showed his class a bit of a video in I.T. I'm in a really good place mentally at the moment. My gym addiction is still up and running and I'm at a gym now which is a quarter of the price of the last one. As always I'm having to juggle writing, watching films and if poss reading. Not to mention working full time. 

There's also been baby news but I'm not at liberty to divulge that yet. 

This weekend it's my first Comic Con visit which my son and I are gonna love. 

Everything's rosy and I'm struggling to blog. I apologise. 

My recent birthday went very briefly as it was colder than expected in the beer garden. The pub now has an 'eat only' policy so there's nowhere to just sit and chat inside. New venue next year I think. 

To summarise

To summarise....my son and I went to York for my birthday and played Warhammer. We are going to try and go to a few free classes and continue it. Most of all though, my boy wants to start a YouTube channel of his gaming walkthroughs. I've ordered headphones and a capture device. I'm looking forward to that. Im keen to get him creating. 

The paranormal convention is behind me know and my part certainly went well. So that's a memory I've gained. 

This weekend I'm investigating Wycoller ruin with PPS. I'm still mad for my NEW gym and I'm about to start a new programme. Time is much less free these days but that's what it's all about. Comic Con in over a week too which will be our first one. Lots to look forward to. My son and I are living it up.  

End of June 2015

The temperature this week is meant to be 33 degrees in Leeds. This is a record in my lifetime I think. There's global warming for you. I've not had prickly heat yet this summer and hope to avoid it totally. But I still can't help but love the bright start to each day. 

I dreamt of my youth last night and walking the streets with my friends. The only difference was that it was snowy. It's been decades since we've been able to do this for real and I miss it. I guess it's the same forever everyone and I'm luckier than most with how much free time I have both at home and in a way, at work. 

Health can kill

We went to play Jurassic Park at Shibden Park in Halifax on Saturday. The late afternoon sun shining through the trees cast a glow on my son's smile. 

It was nice playing out together. 

On Saturday I went to my sister in laws 50th birthday and I stayed among the alcohol drinkers until 11pm where upon I had to leave. It's difficult being sober among drunks. 

On Sunday I woke up far too early and had no carbs with my egg breakfast. This led to me almost collapsing at the gym again. Instead I made it home and went to bed for an hour. God I felt awful. Don't workout without carb energy. 

I simply played Dragon Age for hours afterwards.  

I genuinely thought I may die from blacking out or heart attack while at the gym. 

I felt terrible.
