Carpentry! Bank! Mission! Bank!

Tim A. Cummins @ 9:31 pm  

I wasn’t feeling well last night. Had kind of a scratchy throat and was super tired. I was concerned maybe I was coming down with something. Went to sleep at 10pm and stayed in bed till 10am. I feel better now!

Studied Spanish/Swahili this morning.

If you’ve kept up with this blog, you’d know that I have been trapping squirrels. The last one I caught and released was #43! I started catching them because they were chewing holes in my soffits and boards around my roof. Today, I had the carpenter come and repair those holes. I know that all the squirrels are gone now. At least out of my house. I get new squirrels all the time at my feeders, but they don’t get in my house. Now they can’t!



The next step will be for my gutter guys to come and put new gutters on. The old ones leak a lot and are coming away from the boards. They’ve been up at least ten years.

Recorded a new episode of Verbal Surgery called “Rougheree!” It’s a good one!

Added some new material to my twitter feed. My version of sermon notes from church.

I had a problem with my bank. I was low on funds and got a couple of overdrafts. It happens every now and then. Not since last year, thankfully. I had a credit card from Bank of America that is only used as an overdraft protection. I knew something was wrong when I got penalized so I talked to the bankers today.

Apparently, because I hadn’t used the card in so long, they cancelled it! What?! I’d had that card number for over 17 years! So, anyway, I had to get a new one today because they one I had had different terms and conditions which they could no longer fufill. Oh, well. I got a new one and they took off the overdraft charges. Amen. I go back tomorrow to link the new card to my checking account for overdraft protection.

I liked this tree bark outside the bank.

Went by FBC Doraville to check on the mail.

Then to the mission to help the kids! One of my projects this year is to get a shot of all the kids with a name tag.


Jocelyn came by to visit today! She’s been having trouble with her algebra homework. Hopefully, I can help her.

Always great to see my girls!

Ashley had fun teaching the girls yoga! Groovy!






After I got home, I went for a 8.81 mile bike ride. I’ve been enjoying riding and listening to books.

Cleaned up after the carpenter. Collected and threw some sticks into my compost area.

Admin duties now.

I feel better than I did last night. Will probably still go to sleep early.
