0:03 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

11:13 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
