26 Becomes 27

February is the only month of the year that cannot be a bad month as it always ends with my Birthday which was yesterday and next year will be a funny one is it will be my 28th on the 28th but will go into detail in the week's summary.

Monday began a session on Lego Movie and as our kitchen was being done, I was up early and got my Warrington tickets ordered for next month and in the afternoon connected with a fellow RL blogger on Facebook. The evening saw the weekly blog catchup with the final Sochi post being done with the Liverpool and PL blogs.

Tuesday saw the monthly printing and designing of my TV schedule and sleep cycle and a session of Xbox writing with a quick trip to ASDA for tea and then off to watch Skem United against Farsley and my winning run as a spectator continued as Skem reached the semi finals of the Dootson cup with a 4-0 win, a nice walk home and a go on the Lego movie game.

Wednesday began with the completion of one of my yearly goals - 'Complete an Xbox One game' as I finished Lego Movie in the early hours and on waking up received my Warrington tickets and did my weekly weight check and Xbox sheet updating and somewhat spookily the first time I went downstairs, my WCC shirt had arrived and looked well worth the wait for it. The evening saw the writing of the SL preview and a spammer contacting me on a dating site, so sick of fake people so obvious as soon as the 'wanna see me on cam x' appears funny how I get fakes messaging but never any genuine people.

Thursday saw a quiet day with a counting of my scattered change that I've gathered recently and an evening on the Xbox on Vancouver 2010, inspired after having watched the Winter Games for two weeks.

Friday was Happy 27th and just like last year I had no tiredness so listened to some music but still awake so did some writing into the early morning and had a relaxing day watching TV and seeing some of the family while transferring some things off my Sky planner to DVD. The evening saw walk and chat with a friend and a takeaway meal with my parents something we have done for my past two birthdays which I have enjoyed.


A nice day saw me get some new clothes and £160 overall which meant I was able to order the Simpsons Lego set Ii have been after as I could afford it properly now so ordered after tea. A negative came from the fact I had only got 11 wishes from online friends but I didn't expect a lot as I haven't for the past two years and even got one from my ex from America which ended badly as she accompanied the wishes with a tirade about religion which meant a second cease in contact after the problems of the other week but a good 27th birthday overall.












As for February itself, I still remain single and unemployed but with buoyed confidence as my writing has gained a bigger audience and hopefully it could lead to something in the future but I am still applying for jobs just not getting any responses.


Fitness wise, Runkeeper and Nike showed progress from January with me reaching 10% of my yearly goal by walking 21.6 miles and reaching 29,600 fuel.


The Xbox achievement chase saw a superb month that set a new record as the best ever February and was the first one to go over a century of unlocks by reaching 103 achievements with the previous record being 74 set last year.

I earned 3091 TA points with a haul of 1930G which has benefitted by the 1000G from Lego Movie and means 2014 is the first year to begin with 100+ in the first two months.

My main goals of 5000 unlocks has the potential to be reached by the end of March (197 needed) and 100,000G is definately doable this year  (12,325) with an average of 2,400 per month so far.

Sports-wise, Skelmersdale ended the month in second after a little blip but still are unbeaten at home this season and also in the Dootson Cup semi final.

Wigan sit 9th in Super League but with only a single game played (8-24 v Hudds) is understandable with being in Australia with a trial win over the NZ Warriors (46-24) and the loss in the WCC to Sydney (36-14) making for a decent month.

Liverpool are still in contention for the title and are only four points off the top with a stunning 5-1 at home to Arsenal the highlight with wins against Fulham and Swansea adding to a draw against West Brom. The only loss came in the FA Cup at Arsenal (2-1) in the week following the league game.

On the subject of my goals for 2014,There has only been one this month which was the completion of my first Xbox One game which was Lego Movie but progress has been made on a lot so some are very likely in March.
