welcome everyone adam the woo
0:03
here as a general rule of thumb nine
0:06
times out of ten maybe even more maybe
0:08
99
0:09
out of 100 times the way i do
0:13
these videos is to film throughout the
0:15
course of the day
0:16
edit in the evening and then early the
0:19
next morning
0:20
i will upload the project and the
0:23
adventure
0:24
from the day before as of right now
0:27
as i am speaking it is national
0:30
relaxation day
0:32
and that got me thinking why not take a
0:35
day
0:36
but maybe a few days or
0:39
longer and take some time off
0:45
that's what i'm going to do i'm inviting
0:47
you to join me
0:49
well you you don't have to take time off
0:51
but i'm inviting you to join me for this
0:53
announcement
0:55
if you want you could already be taking
0:57
time off or
1:05
or not i'm inviting you to join me
1:05
shall you
1:13
and a piping warm cup of caffeinated
1:13
goodness
1:14
is a good way to start this oh you can
1:16
see the steam kind of
1:18
meandering off of the top that that's
1:19
going to be a good one
1:21
it is just flowing there added a little
1:24
bit of creamer
1:25
first and then this kind of coffee is
1:28
pouring in on top of it
1:30
it makes it makes this very interesting
1:32
noise kind of unusual noise
1:34
but it makes this little fantastic noise
1:36
letting you know it's done it's not a
1:37
beep or anything like that but you'll
1:39
hear it momentarily
1:40
just give it a sec be patient here it is
1:47
your coffee is ready adam
1:50
that was me saying that was no that was
1:51
actually me talking to myself
1:54
well into mid august of 2020.
1:59
it's tough to believe that the month is
2:01
already halfway over just about right at
2:03
that well
2:04
a little bit past the halfway point well
2:06
right at the halfway point
2:08
i should say and even more difficult to
2:11
comprehend that
2:12
this year as well is well on its way to
2:16
the end of the year the
2:18
holidays will be right around the corner
2:21
halloween
2:22
and the festivities around halloween
2:26
start next month which kind of led me to
2:28
this decision
2:36
oh it's warm that's warm as well
2:36
i have been i have been pushing myself
2:44
for the last few months i really have
2:44
not taken any i took one
2:47
day off of filming and that was four or
2:50
five days three or four days ago
2:52
out of the last maybe three or four
2:53
months even when
2:55
you know all the news was starting to
2:58
to kind of rear its head about the whole
3:01
situation that
3:03
we are all in everyone is in all across
3:05
the world
3:06
i kept busy i push forward
3:10
and that that is part of the way my mind
3:13
works and the way
3:14
i am that's the way i'm built i it a
3:17
keep
3:19
to keep my mind off things keep
3:21
motivated i have to stay active and i
3:23
have to stay
3:24
busy
3:30
it's now time to kind of decompress just
3:30
a little bit
3:31
for the rest of you know maybe the rest
3:33
of the month
3:34
i might pepper in one or two videos
3:37
before
3:38
august you know comes to an end
3:41
but there won't be many i the next few
3:43
days for
3:44
certain i will be laying low you will
3:47
not be hearing
3:48
from me i will be just kind of
3:52
doing my own thing getting some stuff
3:54
down done around the homestead
3:57
running some errands relaxing getting
4:00
caught up on some
4:01
slumber not filming not editing
4:05
and doing a hard reset
4:08
i think it's important to always reset
4:10
your mind
4:11
reset your body and get the creative
4:14
juices
4:15
flowing and have time for research that
4:18
is something i have been denying myself
4:21
by you know putting out constant
4:25
everyday
4:26
videos a promise i made to myself a
4:29
couple years ago to quit the
4:31
every single day vlogs did five years
4:34
two months 1911 dies
4:41
i even have a tattoo showing the number
4:41
five
4:43
just to just to reiterate to myself if i
4:46
ever get in these situations where i
4:47
think
4:48
i can't miss a day i can't stop i can't
4:51
not
4:51
put content out there i have i have to i
4:55
have to say
4:57
you have proven it to yourself you have
5:00
nothing to prove to anyone
5:02
if you need a day off take a day off now
5:05
i have worked i worked retail for 20
5:06
years
5:08
stocking shelves
5:15
working and receiving working overnights
5:15
third shift full time as well as
5:18
part-time jobs on top of it
5:20
and the last job i ever had was working
5:22
at a feed store throwing horse feed cow
5:24
feed
5:25
hay loading round bales on a forklift
5:28
a lot of very strenuous manual labor and
5:31
in no way
5:33
shape or form what i am doing now is
5:36
that
5:37
tiresome on my body as far as lifting
5:40
things
5:41
and at the end of the day being just
5:44
completely
5:45
exhausted from that but it's more of a
5:48
mental thing
5:49
no matter what you do no matter what
5:51
your
5:52
plot in life is and your circumstances
5:54
in life you are always
5:56
in the zone of what you are doing you
5:58
cannot compare
6:00
what you do for work strange is that
6:04
that says what i am doing is
6:07
is a job and some will say
6:10
yeah the common thing is what are you
6:12
going to get a real job
6:14
and my response always well in my brain
6:16
and also to others who approach me and
6:18
say that sometimes
6:20
is if i work if if what i am doing was
6:25
if someone was paying me to do that if
6:28
someone said hey i'm going to hire you
6:30
to do this
6:32
then would it be a job
6:43
there are some filming locations that i
6:43
would
6:44
i want to do i have quite a few of them
6:46
a lot of them in the
6:48
los angeles area that i have been
6:50
wanting to
6:52
wanting to really kind of dive deep into
6:53
for quite some time
6:55
and the way i am when it comes to
6:58
to researching these projects is i
7:01
really try to
7:02
i try to to really kind of dig up every
7:05
every nook and cranny
7:08
to show and when i'm out filming all the
7:11
time
7:13
and you know just doing kind of like
7:15
casual type of vlogs about my life and
7:18
taking up the day by by going out and
7:21
doing that and then editing in the
7:22
evening
7:23
sometimes research kind of falls by the
7:25
wayside
7:26
so i would like to kind of refresh
7:31
start studying some of the the items
7:33
that i'm going to be doing in the future
7:35
as well as not even doing that there
7:37
will be some days
7:39
over the course of the next week where i
7:41
won't even do that
7:42
i might just stare at the wall i might
7:45
just
7:46
go on a walk go on a bike ride and not
7:49
document it now
7:53
this will not last very long i i cannot
7:56
sit still for very long
7:58
but just a few days to a week will be
8:01
nice
8:03
and then september why i wonder there
8:06
are going to be one or two
8:08
there are one or two videos i'll be
8:10
doing before the end of august so
8:12
expect that but then september
8:16
it's back to business i need a little a
8:18
little staycation
8:21
here at the home
8:26
this has just been an announcement video
8:29
nothing dramatic is happening life is
8:31
great
8:33
there are no no problems on my end from
8:37
from any angles life is good
8:41
and in fact i am very thankful for the
8:44
way my life has turned out
8:53
if you enjoy this particular episode
8:53
give it a big thumbs up
9:00
there's like a delayed thumbs up from me
9:00
it lets me know okay
9:03
now i'm just like sitting here thinking
9:05
what am i going to do
9:07
you get ins like everything is a habit
9:10
habits of filming habits of editing
9:13
habits of always thinking like what am i
9:15
going to do what i got to get out and
9:16
film i got to get
9:17
filmed and i'm not going to do that the
9:19
next few days except for some research
9:22
and i mentioned this the other day there
9:25
was a
9:25
massive project that i was going to do
9:27
this year that
9:29
did not happen due to you know the
9:31
current situation i must have put that
9:33
off until next year
9:35
maybe not even until late next year and
9:37
it was it was a big one it was a it was
9:39
a
9:39
doozy and there's there's a little
9:42
little part of me that is discouraged by
9:45
that that i was not able
9:46
not able to do that because that was
9:48
going to be my 2020
9:50
project that was something i was really
9:52
looking forward to but
9:54
this year for all of us
9:58
is a little different
10:04
halloween scene scene halloween season
10:04
and the scene
10:05
there's a big scene here in southern
10:09
california is always a fun one
10:11
and i will be documenting it very well
10:14
and i have i have some
10:16
some travel plans not a lot but i do
10:19
have some
10:19
moderate travel plans throughout the
10:21
rest of the year
10:24
nothing extreme but i do have some
10:31
this has been a very long-winded simple
10:31
explanation when
10:32
it could have just been a simple
10:33
statement but it has kind of dragged on
10:36
and i really appreciate you watching
10:39
to this to this point i'll see you guys
10:42
in the next video don't know when that
10:44
will be
10:45
but it won't be far off fret not
10:48
go back and watch some of the past
10:50
episodes i have been going going
10:53
on a pretty healthy regiment when it
10:56
comes to uploads
10:58
starting way back with the
11:01
40-day food videos about
11:04
the los angeles area you know some of
11:06
the iconic spots
11:07
around the greater l.a southern
11:09
california then i went to florida
11:11
documented the openings of walt disney
11:13
world theme park starting with
11:15
the very first day and continuing i did
11:19
that for a few weeks
11:30
maybe it shows it there reaches a point
11:30
where you keep putting off
11:34
you keep putting off relaxing and then
11:37
it just kind of hits you and says no no
11:39
no you need to
11:41
just chill
11:46
i'll see you guys in the next video the
11:46
vlog
