Worked on a new podcast this morning! Fun!

Feeling a little under the weather. I have kind of a sore throat.

Yesterday, I realized that the bottom of the trashcan where I keep birdseed had begun to rust. Cleaned it out and let it dry over night. This morning I sprayed it with white spray paint. I put it in another spot where it won’t have that problem.

Enjoyed lunch with Kathy and Ashley.

Ash and I worked on the papers for the Board meeting on Monday.

We also have a team in town from Texas. It’ll be a busy week. I think we pretty much have everything together. There’s still some financial numbers that she’s crunching.

We are planning on sending out more promotional dvds to prospective youth directors. So I’ve been burning more dvds.

Only takes about five minutes to burn one, but I’m always working on something so I have to stop to go over the computer to put another disk in. Definitely takes time.

Went to Azalea to work with the kids. Great group!


Admin duties now. Still burning dvds.

I liked this grill.

Beauty.

Had a fun day with Ashley! It’s her birthday! 25!! We put on her new license plate.


She came over to my house and we ate lunch with our friends the Zamoras from Venezuela.

They’ve been doing great missionary work at Huntington Ridge for over 5 years now. The complex is getting a new owner and they’re also having a tough time raising the funds they need. Hard decisions have to be made.

It was great seeing them.

I burned more DVDs for the promotion project we’re doing for the Summer teams.

Ashley and I talked a lot about the information we need to put down for our Board meeting on Monday evening.

Cleaned out the fish tank.

Helped the kids at the mission. Always fun.

Some of my Bengali girls may need to rethink the whole flip-flop thing in freezing temps.

Jesse had his own room of kids.

Enjoyed eating supper with J.

He’s not been sleeping well. Pray that he’ll get over his cold and rest.

Admin duties now.

Went for a 5.19 mile run this morning. It was pretty cold even with a jacket on.

Still beautiful.

Really windy. Yow!

Ate a sandwich then went to Party City and Walmart to pick up supplies for Ashley’s surprise birthday party.

I got a lot of fun stuff for another Fabulous Year.

Also got her an ice cream cake and two other chocolate cakes.

We need to celebrate something as auspicious as 25 years on the planet for multiple days.

The kids liked to smell the candle.

This is supposed to be Ashley and me dancing.

Here are the kids doing their homework at the table.

Sure do love Ashley!

Helped the kids with their homework.

Working on the board report with Ashley.

Admin duties now.

Had fun doing some creative writing.

They are my short, pithy sayings I post on Twitter. I write for about thirty minutes then post a couple of weeks worth into a program that doles them out five times a day. Over 6,000! You can find them on Twitter @timacummins I have over 80,000 followers on Twitter.

Recorded a new podcast!

I thought this one was interesting. I call it “Dogs in Costumes.” Click on the title and groove!

Picked up my car today.

It had a bent cam shaft as well as two valves that were out of alignment. With over 225, 000 miles it comes with the territory. Nearly $1,000.

Filled up with gas. Glad the prices keep going down.

Helped the kids at the mission. Not too much homework today.



A new fad of wearing mismatched shoes.

Jesse and Ashley were both sick.

Admin duties now.

Beautiful sunset!

Kathy and I had a good time at Clarkston International Bible Church this morning. Jacob, our youth director, spoke. He did a good job. Pastor Phil led us in prayer for the Philippines. About half of our church is made up of Filipinos.

I liked this tree.

Enjoyed lunch with friends of ours from Mountain Park the Coxs and Mattiesons.

Kathy rode her bike back from Piccadilly in Tucker to Stone Mountain.

Filled up the Expedition. Actually it still had about 1/4 to go.

Came home and ran 4.98 miles.

Beautiful weather. And Fall trees!

I’m trying new routes. This one didn’t have sidewalks part of the way. Won’t do that again.

Steep in Georgia.

Hydrants for firemen who don’t want to bend over.

The #1 variable for how beautiful the trees are in the Fall? Wind.

Admin duties now.

Did you know my name in Cherokee is Full Sun Moon?

The first word I said as a baby was light.

I enjoyed having lunch with Ashley and Miles today! We ate at Mo’s.

On the way over there I saw this really interesting cloud formation. As if it was being blown away from the center.

Jesse is not feeling well. Picked up his prescription and a couple of Subs to see him through.

Drove over to the mission at Azalea to give it to him.

Also did the family grocery shopping.

Watched Fat Kid Rules with K. Pretty good.

Admin duties now.

Had fun recording a new podcast this morning.

I’m a fan of competition, but it’s not nearly as powerful as cooperation. The whole idea of being number one can be very destructive.

Check out #1!

I enjoyed lunch at Red Robin with Jesse.

After lunch, we went for an early showing of Thor–The Dark World.

It was better than I was expecting. Really enjoyed it.

Home now for admin duties.

Greek to me! Closest I can figure out is Do Not Run for the first section.

Gross.

Had a fun lunch with my family today! Always great to spend time with them.

The Expedition had a charger light on, turned out to the alternator. Cost about $450. PLUS I had the Chrysler being worked on today getting a valve job done—that’ll be another nearly $1,000. Yow!

So Kathy and I for most of the day were down to using bikes! Good job we’re fit.

We had planned on going out of town for the weekend, but with all these expenses we had to cancel. Boo hoo.

After lunch, I got my running clothes on and ran a big loop. Ran 7.11 miles. That’s a long way for me.

Felt pretty good, but the cold air wasn’t that great on my legs. Sure was beautiful!

I liked the geometry.

Looks like Korean.

Wonder what laid these?

Working on admin duties now. Checking on one of the teams coming. Ashley has really done an amazing job with the logistics of the teams.

Rest now.

Beautiful flowers!

Ashley and I hosted a team from the Sharon School in Jonesboro,GA this morning.

Had fun giving our briefings!

Then off to CD Tower and Hoa Da pharmacy!

Cobra juice! A perennial crowd favorite!

Culminating with a trip to the Buford Highway Farmers Market.


Whirlwind Missions tradition of kissing the frozen pig head.

Great having them with us.

Went to a couple of antique stores waiting for the kids to get back from school.




Then over to Lowes to pick up some supplies to finish mounting the whiteboards in the mission.

Worked with the kids on their homework.

Admin duties now.

Enjoyed watching Duck Dynasty with Kathy.

It’s my Dad’s birthday today! Happy Birthday, Daddy!

A rare type of cloud formation called tsunami clouds. Caused by a slow moving layer of air with a fast moving layer right against it. Causes a wave effect.
