Monthly Musings: July 2017

An overview of opinions and observations for the month.

Been a traumatic 24hrs! Why don't UK vax against Chickenpox I'll never know! ๐Ÿ™ˆ

Creep Catchers UK have cornered a 21 year old who thought he was meeting with a girl he understood to be 13 years old for sex at Hanley Forest Park this morning. He's been taken off in handcuffs, but it really drives home the proximity we live to these problems. It's not just in other areas, it's right on our doorstep. This is the same week as the article broke about the guy they arrested as a suspected terrorist in Stoke too. Christ on a bike, this is the world I'm bringing my children up in.

Well, fuck. Schmuck bait, but still. Fuck. Ghost ain't going out like that!

Just heard some brilliant news, my little Princess went back school today all scabbed over ❤️ - just on that recovery phase now getting all the damn pox scabs to fall off without scarring!

06/07/2017 @06:49
Just woke up, no sound of alarms and thought fuck, how late is it!? Answer; that late, Im going back kip!

Learn to appreciate the journey, not just the thought of the destination - every moment of your life is a gift, that's why it's called the present ❤️

"Every word you read of this useless fine print is another second off your life. Don’t you have other things to do? Is your life so empty that you honestly can’t think of a better way to spend these moments? Do you read everything you’re supposed to read? Do you think everything you’re supposed to think? Buy what you’re told to want? Get out of your apartment. Meet a member of the opposite sex. Stop the excessive shopping and masturbation. Quit your job. Start a fight. Prove you’re alive. If you don’t claim your humanity, you will become a statistic." - Tyler Durden

Facebook needs to add a reaction for eye-roll, because it's literally how I respond to 90% of the posts I see on here... ๐Ÿ™„

09/07/2017 @19:01
Also applicable to all other creams where Ilysha is concerned ๐Ÿ™„

09/07/2017 @21:12
Fuck watching this makes me so enthusiastic about this project! This is the most excited I've EVER been about a TV series!! I can't help but think Zach McGowan would make an immense Geralt! 

10/07/2017 @19:00
This kid and her bloody obsession with ice lollies tho! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ™ˆ xo

12/07/2017 @17:56
My little Princess ❤️ she's growing up quickly and making me proud every step of the way! Love this little sweetheart so damn much! xo

They say we are what we eat; guess that explains why I am so cheap, simple and predictable. And also why so many lasses are dicks, and so many lads are pussies.

14/07/2017 @08:50
Heading back to the shackles of employment. Too busy lately, next week is gonna be utter pandemonium getting in front of my workload before my week off with my little sweetheart ๐Ÿ˜

14/07/2017 @21:15
What even is life? Ilysha just says to me: "Dad, I wish I had a bum at the front and a Mary at the back." I'm like, what?? She replies casually: "Then I can watch my poo come out properly, not just my wee." What. The. Fudge?
[feeling surprised]

14/07/2017 @23:41
Fus Off. First one down. Fus ro dah, bitch.

14/07/2017 @23:58
Seriously, how boring and mundane must life be? What you up to Daisy, fancy coming for a beer? Nah mate, just gonna stand in this field for another 12hrs.

15/07/2017 @14:54
I don't think at any point in my 29yrs of life did I ever envision a future that involved my daughter insisting I pretend to breastfeed a toy doll on a Saturday afternoon.

15/07/2017 @16:11
Some people are absolute poison! Toxic is not the word. Claire Meigh is my oldest sister and this post is absolute bullshit! I am fucking fuming!! If you have Claire Meigh on your friends list kindly remove yourself from mine!!! ๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก

16/07/2017 @04:12
Okay, so I just watched a video discussing quantum theory and theoretical physics, and agree with the proposed conclusion that we are in fact in an alternate reality from our original one. It is speculated that the LHC CERN in it's quest to prove the existence of the Higgs Boson particle in fact destroyed our original universe by unbinding energy during particle acceleration and collision. Since energy can never be destroyed or created, only transferred, our unified consciousness transcended our original destroyed universe and transferred to the next adjacent alternate reality. If you think this sounds mental, look up the Mandela Effect. This theory of energy transfer offers an explanation for why such a large volume of people misremember the exact same things; in this universe we are now in, those things were different from our original one. This theory is scientifically founded as plausible insofar as theoretical physics can be. "Luke, I am your Father." Nope. "Mirror, mirror on the wall." Nope. "Hello, Clarice." Nope. None of those things are correct in this universe. And I know it used to be "Sex In The City" too!!
[feeling mind blown]

16/07/2017 @14:16
Watching some real interesting stuff atm. Learning the fundamentals of Quantum Theory and about the prevalence of the Golden Ratio from celestial scale to non-trivial eigenvalues from a binary matrix. From current understanding, it is entirely plausible that one day using Quantum Entanglement we may actually achieve human teleportation. The photon teleportation experiments being undertaken at present are mind blowing; China recently teleported photon particles 300 miles to a space satellite! This is fucking mental!
[feeling intrigued]

17/07/2017 @01:13
I was all there amped up to take the tenth & the trophy, when this fuck-nugget satan spawn completely repeatedly rekt me. Fuck this cunt seriously! #PS4share

17/07/2017 @01:20
Well, that's enough dragon slaying for today ๐Ÿ˜ - should probably go to bed... Not looking forward to this week at work! Ugh! At least I'm off for a week after this one!

17/07/2017 @17:42
Straight in, and getting GoT straight on. Priorities 101. #SpoilerFreeSuckas

Unexpected and enjoyable meal out with Terry & Stace x

19/07/2017 @01:26
Actor John Boyega has slammed Game of Thrones for it's lack of ethnic diversity in the casting, stating: “I ain’t paying money to always see one type of person on-screen, because you see different people from different backgrounds, different cultures, every day. Even if you’re a racist, you have to live with that." It's a bit sad that someone would deprive themselves of watching amazing TV purely out of a misguided victim complex.

20/07/2017 @01:38
Solid progress on this... 98hrs in! #trophywhore

20/07/2017 @19:35
It's very rare that a celebrity death particularly resonates with me; I aren't the type who really cares much for that side of life, the whole media hype around celebrities. After all, they are only human like the rest of us, and despite their talents, they too have hardships, troubles and emotional trauma. I just learned that Chester Bennington has taken his own life, and for a change, this death actually cuts a little into me. I grew up listening to Linkin Park and have always found comfort in their music; even now, Hybrid Theory especially takes me back to the innocence of my childhood, the times when life was simpler and I was naive to the suffering it brings. Rest easy Chester, thank you for helping me through darker days of my life. Absolutely heartbroken for his family, most of all his six children. Gutted x

This is what happened next ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ x

22/07/2017 @10:03
I'd been doing very well with reducing how much coffee I drink and replacing it with water. I've gone down from about 8 mugs a day, to just 1 or 2. Then today happened, and feeling like a zombie after Ilysha had me up at 5am, 6am, and 7am, I am already on my second mug ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ™ˆ

22/07/2017 @17:02
Fun afternoon with the little Princess ๐ŸŠ plus bumped into Jade & the kids down there. Absolutely bolloxed now... walked down in the sun, few hours in the water, then walked back at Ilysha's request... sods law it started pissing down half way home so ended up like this! ๐Ÿ˜‚❤️

22/07/2017 @23:58
Bed! I should really know better than to go bed this late when I have my little Princess sleeping over buuuuuut I need to adjust if I want any "me" time whilst I've got her all week! ๐Ÿ™ˆ๐Ÿ˜‚

23/07/2017 @10:37
Wait, what? ๐Ÿ˜ฒ If you ever need a wake up call to how much you take simple things for granted, realise this: "Over the past 22 years, the number of people practising open defecation fell by a remarkable 21%, from 1.3 billion in 1990 to one billion in 2012. Those one billion people with no sanitation facility whatsoever continue to defecate in gutters, behind bushes or in open water bodies, with no dignity or privacy. Nine out of 10 people who practise open defecation live in rural areas, but the number in urban areas is gradually increasing." (World Health Organization & UNICEF - Progress on Drinking Water & Sanitation | 2014 Report) So that means, 15% of the global population literally shit in the streets. One billion people. ๐Ÿ˜ต

MGTOW is the philosophy of men focusing on bettering themselves emotionally, spiritually and financially by discarding the traditional and societal expectations and burdens imposed upon them. MGTOW Expat supports MGTOW, and in return MGTOW support Expat. Keep up the good fight brother.

24/07/2017 @08:46
This morning will be spent trying to strategically watch Game of Thrones on my phone whilst entertaining Ilysha ๐Ÿ˜

Since when do circuses have pole dancers? Thought I'd accidentally taken Ilysha to a strip club for a moment!

24/07/2017 @16:42
My bad, it's not a strip club, it's a fricking rave!

25/07/2017 @23:27
Thoroughly enjoyable, albeit exhausting day at West Midlands Safari Park with Ilysha, Terry & Stace. Now crawling into my pit ready for a deserved rest, praying little madam let's me have a lie in until at least 8am! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

26/07/2017 @07:54
Little pud had a right cry this morning. She asked how many sleeps she has left, and when I told her 3 more, she burst into tears saying she wants to sleep here everyday because her Mum's the worst ๐Ÿ˜ข says her Mum just always works and never plays with her, and she hasn't got any brothers or sisters to play with either and has to play by herself ๐Ÿ˜ญ feel so sorry for the little buggo! Hate seeing her so sad!!
[feeling emotional]

26/07/2017 @16:35
Couple hours out with the kiddos ❤️ Ilysha ๐Ÿ’™ Char xo

27/07/2017 @21:46
So was planning on taking little pud to Cinebowl iSkate today for cinema, bowling & ice skating but she's kicked off at the suggestion saying she doesn't want to go there! Bloody kids ey!? Looks like we may have to venture down Stone and go Flip Out and then Oatcakes & Milkshakes instead! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘Œ

27/07/2017 @14:43
Well we made it, let's see what all the noise is about! ❤️ x

Life with Ilysha in 5 sentences:
1) Can I go on your shoulders, my legs hurt.
2) Can I have...?
3) My bellys hungry.
4) Can I have an ice lolly?
5) My bellys aches.

As I tuck her in before going to bed myself for the last time this week, I look down at my beautiful daughters face and I already know how quiet and empty my home will feel tomorrow night. I went into this week slightly apprehensive, a little uncomfortable with the thought of not having much time to myself, a little concerned about how exhausted I'd feel from the constant attention a child demands... and as I lie here beside her, just looking at her peaceful little face, the cute button nose and the way a piece of her hair always falls across her cheek, I realise how much I will miss her the next few days. I hear her soft breathing, recall her soft voice telling me how much she loves me right before she dozed off, the warmth and love as she cuddled me before falling asleep. I am reminded how much I have already fought to have these moments with her, and I am grateful for all the memories we make together. I place a kiss upon her forehead as she rests, and I know there is nothing I wouldn't do to keep her safe, to make her smile, and to make sure she always feels loved ❤️ Daddy loves you Ilysha Jade, more than you could ever comprehend. Sweet dreams my little Princess, I miss you already ๐Ÿ˜ข xo

29/07/2017 @08:43
Haha forgot how good this is ๐Ÿ˜‚ little madam better not be getting any ideas! ๐Ÿ™ˆ xo

29/07/2017 @17:39
Asked Ilysha what her favourite part of the week has been and her reply was genuinely "eating ice lollies" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
