90’s American TV, My Staple

I was flicking through the TV channels today and on Sci-Fi I came across Quantum Leap and I was instantly taken back to when I used to watch it was I was a young chap, it was a bit cheesy now but back then I loved and I used to watch it every week without fail.

What They Don’t Tell You

I am doing the right thing on this diet and although I am only on day 2, I am doing well and drinking lots of water but it is going through me as quick as it’s going in so is it doing me any good drinking all this?

My Yesterday

Back to work, average day, diet went well but I had a very bad head all day which I still have now a bit so when I got home, I had my baked veggies with chick peas and feta (quite nice) and I played with the girls for a while, put them to bed and at about 8:30PM with still a bad head, I went to bed myself and I have come to the conclusion that too much or too little sleep doesn’t matter, I still wake up tired, I am hoping that this diet will pep me up.

Bad News On A Happy Day

Well the start of the new year was marred today by the news that my brother in law has been admitted to hospital with a blood clot in his leg, he is also been having breathing problems for a while, he wasn’t him self when they came over a couple of days ago so I hope for the best and give my sister, niece and nephew all the support I can.

The Diet Starts Tomorrow

Yes, I am becoming part of the new year cliché, tomorrow I will start my dramatic up hill struggle to start to lose weight because the fat suit needs to come off as all of my clothes have become very uncomfortable to wear so out with all that fatty rubbish I have been eating for the last 4 months and in with the low G.

Our December Spring Clean

We spent the day cleaning the house from top to bottom, took all the decorations down (it always looks so bare afterwards), and filled in all the cracks and touched up the paint work because we are convinced that now the Christmas is almost at an end, people will start to look at moving house and our house is ready to be looked at so we better start getting some viewers soon else I am going to get annoyed.

Our 3.30 AM Wake Up Call

My girls kicked off early this morning, No 2 is teething very badly so she is letting the rest of the family know how much it hurts, No 1 started because she was being woke up by No 2 so at 4:30 after settling down No 1, I was perched on one side of my bed, my wife on the other with No 2 in the middle stretched out and fast asleep leaving us awake to make sure we didn’t squash her :( .

Absent Friends

I think about my best friend who I lost over 10 years ago, he is sometimes in my dreams as if he had never died and when I ask him about it, he acts slightly strange and says it was all a mistake but I know this is my way of dealing with the grief even after so long, he would be 31 now.

Will Smith - The Last Man On Earth Vibe - I Liked It

I have just watched I Am Legend and I thought that this would be just another Will Smith blockbuster with lots of effects and no story but I was wrong and I highly recommend this film, it is one of the best post apocalyptic films I have seen, it has been produced very well.

Our First Family Christmas At Home

It was great, the whole day really centred around the girls opening their presents and making sure they had a fun day, my wife’s cooking was great and the whole day was stress free as we didn’t have to go or be anywhere but at home, the only thing was I had to take the tree down as I didn’t want to tell the girls off any more for pulling the decorations off.

My Only Christmas Eve Tradition

Well I finished work at lunch and now I am going down the pub for a few hours to play cards and see my friends and then I will come home and get all of the presents ready for the girls tomorrow which I am quite looking forward to.

The Fog On The Fens

We all went out for a drive today to look at a couple of houses we liked and we went down a track that ended up in a field and by the time we had turned around to go back up the track, the fog had came in over the countryside like out of one of those dodgy horror remakes and depicted below (internet picture as I didn't have my camera on me at the time but very true to life), very spooky.
