Walk! Español! Errands! Azalea! 8.21.23

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:12 pm  

I continue to do well in the Duolingo leagues. Duolingo is the world’s largest language learning community.

I’ve been checking the weather on Acatenango regularly. That’s the 13,000 ft. volcano in Guatemala I’m planning on climbing in October. It’s the rainy season now.

Kathy has been taking this medicine as a sleep aid for a long while. We been reading about the risks of it for dementia. I ordered her some melatonin which is supposed to be safer.

OYB!

Español!

Kathy helped set up the psychiatrist appointment for Jessi. I got the information for her to call.

True.

I walked up the Pitty Pat hill twenty five times today. A new record. I studied Spanish the entire time I walked. A win-win. Makes walking a lot less boring.



It was really sweaty.

Lots of little sticks.

I talked with Mint Mobile today. I wanted to get reimbursed for an order that I made by mistake. I also got the insurance for J’s and K’s phone set up.

I also had an issue in June when the girls and I rode MARTA. I bought three tickets but it only printed out one. They are working on reimbursing me for that. Then I got a Breeze card and put a round trip ride on it to get to the airport and back in September. She told me that wasn’t on there, so she put in a request to get those trips put on my card in about a week.

While I was on hold, I’d work on sewing up the case for my jumper cables. I didn’t completely fix the case because the cables are really heavy and I figured it would just bust out the stitches again. At least it’s better.

Part of my medicare insurance includes $30/month of medical supplies. J and K went through the catalog and picked out stuff we needed, like that melatonin. I also got pain meds and vitamins. They give you $90 every quarter. Pretty cool.

Talked to Jason at T and G to get my oil change scheduled for tomorrow morning. K picked me up over there on my way home. That’ll get that worked on before lunch. I just leave it in their parking lot over night.

Had a nice chat with my Mom on the way into Chamblee. That’s always good.

Worked with the kids at the mission.

Listened to Don Cheto on the way home.

There’s one lady in this group that may give me some competition. She scored more points than me last week. We’ll see. I put in excellent effort today. She’s #5 this evening.
