Love my girls!

Deposited money. Thank you, Jesus!

Then to the missions!





Found three dollars in the Dirty Money Game!

Came home and wrote my request form for NAMB for the MSC program.

Went for a 6.80 mile bike ride.

Always something beautiful to see!

Looked like the cloud was missing the bottom. Weird.

Mixed up bubble solution for tomorrow.

Refilled my hummingbird feeders.

Also cleaned and refilled the bird baths. Put more food out for the birds and raccoons.

Contacted my audio engineer who’s working on the Audible version for Story Tim. Want to make sure that the credits are correct or I if I need to add something. I have Friday to make that happen.

I tried twice to beat 10 different levels of Duoling at the same time this morning. I’ll try again this evening.

Never seen this before. Ice in the urinal. What?

Tim A. Cummins @ 10:21 pm  

Studied Spanish and Swahili this morning.




Went to Westside BC this morning.


Pastor Ben spoke from James about doing your best and dealing with “STUFF.”

I like verse 17 in particular.

Transported and released squirrel #39.

Recorded a new podcast! Great one called “Darkest Light.”

I have six “in the can.” Right at my target goal of seven. I’ve been good using the mic and not getting too hoarse. So I’ve been able to record at least a couple every weekend.


Converted my sermon notes to tweets for Twitter. Uploaded about another 65.

Rode my bike 12.96 miles.

I only started Runkeeper when I was a little over half way through my ride. The mileage came from the exact same ride from August of last year!
I love crossing the bridge at the Yellow River.

Perfect weather. Astonishingly cool today.
Saw two raccoons at my feeders tonight. What a blessing.
I received my cover for the Audible version of my book Story Tim. Had a couple of small revisions he needs to make. Haven’t heard from my audio engineer yet.

Podcast! Pre-Birthday! Ant Man! Audio book! 7.7.18

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:43 pm  

Studied Spanish and Swahili this morning.


Recorded a new podcast! Astonishing how much I love to hear myself talk! It’s called “Super Normal!” Should release in about two weeks.

Had a pre-Birthday party today! Had family members come to celebrate!



After the party, I went by two apartment complexes to remind them that we are sending teams their direction next week.


I set out some new crow decoys.

I’m not sure the crows like them. One of their heads got pecked on.

I worked on the audio version of my book Story Tim this morning. I hired a guy to do the cover art for the Audible version and also an audio engineer to tweak the sound files.


I didn’t have the equipment nor the expertise to make sure they were correct for ACX which is the publishing arm of Audible. I have an international team from Sri Lanka and Venezuela!

Enjoyed seeing Ant Man and The Wasp with Jesse! Fun movie!

Watered my plants.





I thought this was appropriate. Georgia now has a mandatory hands free law.

The crowd waiting for the release of Story Tim as covered by CNN. Lol.

Recorded a new episode of Verbal Surgery called “Different Difference.”

We kept the girls for a few hours today. Always a blessing.


Deposited two reimbursement checks. This will enable me to zero out my credit card debt again. Amen.

Rather than try to figure out how to convert my Kindle cover to ACX for Audible, I decided to work with Fiverr, which is an internet based freelance worker system.

I’ll have them work on the cover as well as tweak the sound files to make sure the tech parts are up to speed for Audible.
Admin duties now.
Editing video and uploading for my team last week.
Will answer some questions from my graphics guy this evening as well.

Ashley’s eyes were really bothering her today. After we got the teams sorted out, we went to Alpharetta to see an ophthamalogist. She had extremely dry eyes and just needed some special eye drops. She has to be extra careful to not fall asleep in her contacts and to really clean the containers perfectly. GLAD she’s ok!

The girls were asleep in the car while Ashley went in to see the doctor. I kept the car running with the AC on so they had a nice nap. I studied Swahili some more.

Also did research on what the best shampoos were for getting out tangles. I’ll try this one next.

Deposited checks for Whirlwind.

Dropped off a check for my Treasurer to sign.

Transported squirrel #35 this evening.
Plan on working on the cover for the paperback version of my book this evening. Not sure if it will work of if I need to get a higher definition for the photo.

Over a 1/2″ of rain yesterday.

After I took the picture, I cleaned it out.
I recorded a new episode of Verbal Surgery. Always fun. It’s called “Birth Mirth.”

I have five episodes in the can. That’s two and a half week’s worth. I need eight to finish off all of July.

I decided to release a paperback version of Story Tim. Even been formatting the book into a 6″ x 9″ framework.
Added numbers to each chapter in the Contents page.

Centered, bold and 14pt font for titles and chapter numbers.

It’s not hard to do, but I had to do every change 69 times. Stay focused and take your time. Get in a rhythm. Figure out faster ways.
