Español! Walk! Anthony! Car! 11.2.23

Tim A. Cummins @ 7:59 pm  

I found this explanation interesting.

OYB!

Español!

Fun chat with Anthony.

Still cool.

Washed, dried and put up my clothes.

Couldn’t figure out what would have made that mark on the ground. Exhaust?

Walked 3.37 miles. 17 hills.

Picked up Thai food for lunch for J and I.

They fixed my car. That wasn’t easy.

Took K’s truck back to Young World.

Wrote down my milage.

Filled up the windshield washer fluid.

Went to Walmart to buy candy. The days of discounted candy are gone.

Watered my plants.

Looks like I made the week with no jury duty. Amen.

Just keep going.

Blew the driveway.

My banana plants seemed like they did ok in the freeze last night.

Good chat with my buddy Anthony.

I took two shirts to UPS to return to Amazon.

No jury tomorrow. One more day!

Walk! Ball Joint! Tow! Newsletters! 10.31.23

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:36 pm  

Cool day!

OYB!

Español!

Walked 1.51 miles.

Cleaned my hummingbird feeders. I really thought they had gone South, but something seems to be drinking it.

Repaired a crack (I hope!) in one of my birdbaths.

Refilled my other birdbaths.

Folded and stuffed the newsletters and added a stamp.

Pulling out of my driveway to put the letters in the mail the ball joint in my front will broke off. Huge CLUNK! Had to get it towed to Garmon which are my new car guys.

Walked to Young World to pick up Kathy’s truck. Gassed her truck up, mailed the newsletters.

Walk! Spanish! Returns! Anthony! PE! AZ! PO! Groceries! 10.31.23

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:54 pm  

I love the modern days SO much more because of this.

One of my very favorite Star Wars characters EVER! So glad Ezra is in the Ahsoka series.

Worked hard last week. Came in #3 out of 30.

OYB!

Ordered groceries.

Talked with my buddy, Anthony.

Walked 3.19 miles. Seventeen hills. This walking regime is so much harder than just walking around the neighborhood. Even going down is kind of hard.

Talked with my friend Andrew Toney. He’s bringing a team into town on Saturday. Looking forward to that!

Although I just realized I’ll miss Penelope’s last game. Bummer.

Returned shoes to Amazon for K. I ordered a couple of sizes larger plus wide mode. I also sent back a shirt I think we ordered by mistake.

Saw a voicemail I had with Ryan Hooper. He’s like my little brother from Kenya days. I enjoyed our conversation so much. GREAT to get in touch with family.

Picked up the girls at the bus. They got to talk with Ryan a bit. Went to Waffle House. Astonishing how much food Penelope can put down.

Took the shoes and shirt to UPS to get it in the mail. They have a station where you can scan the item in, put it in a bag and seal it with the label. UPS takes it straight to Amazon. The UPS people don’t even touch the packages. WAY better than standing in line just to hand the stuff to the guy behind the counter.

I took the newsletters over to FBC Doraville to let Renae make copies for us.

Went to the Post Office to get stamps. The self service kiosk was out of ink and couldn’t print. I went straight in, no line at all. Super rare. Told the mailman about the problem but went ahead and bought stamps.

Penelope is trying to help me find a Roblox name.

Helped the kids at the mission.

Two days down. Three to go. Seven years ago I never had to go in.

Listened to Don Cheto.

Checked the mail at my office.

Beautiful day. Started to get chilly with a lot of wind.

Got the groceries. I really wanted to get more cough drops, but somehow I didn’t get them on the order. I may have ordered them too late to pick up today.

Español! Walk! Ditchy! Labels! 10.29.23

Tim A. Cummins @ 3:26 pm  

I got Zelle squared away on my iPhone.

OYB!

Spanish!

Walked 1.32 miles. Seven hills.

Printed out the labels for the donors. Put the labels on the envelopes. I still need to get stamps tomorrow.

I should come in third this week.

Spanish! Anthony! Penelope Soccer! Newsletter! 10.28.23

Tim A. Cummins @ 9:02 pm  

Studied hard this week.

Hopefully, I’ll get a similar message every evening.

OYB!

Funny chat with Anthony.

Español!

Walked 1.70 miles. I didn’t just go up and down my hill. I walked an old route. Man, was it ever easy.

I always enjoy watching Penelope play soccer.

Perfect weather.

Blew the leaves off the driveway.

Wrote and produced my newsletter for November.

Tight competition this week.

Spanish! Jon! Rest! 10.27.23

Tim A. Cummins @ 7:31 pm  

Studied Spanish. Pushed to the front. Barely.

Had lunch with Jon Paul. Always a blessing.

Every so often Walmart has to send me things rather than me just pick them up. Not sure why.

OYB!

About the time to get the insurance squared away. I hope we can figure out something for Ashley and Jessi.

I tweaked my back and had a headache all morning long. Not sure what was going on. Took a nap after I ate with Jon. Felt better after that. Still didn’t get to go out an enjoy the great weather.

I have potential jury duty next week. I signed up for text information from the jury web site last time. I reckon it’s still in effect because it sent me information.

Just keep going.

Walk! Spanish! Anthony! AZ! PE! Bank! 10.26.23

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:39 pm  

Just keep going!

Changed our Mint Mobile amount to just 5GB per month. Should be enough.

OYB!

Had a great talk with my old friend Rollin Hooper! He’s like a brother to me.

I called his little brother who is also one of my favorite people and left a VM.

I always enjoy talking with my buddy, Anthony in the UK. He’s hilarious.

Español!

Walked 3.58 miles. That’s 20 hills.

I saw this weird root like thing on this tree. It was about three feet up. The tree is dying.

Listened to Don Cheto while I drove.

Took the grandgirls to Pho 24. It’s one of our favorite places, but it’s gotten quite expensive especially to what it used to cost.

Helped the kids at the mission. She drew me the picture.

Deposited checks. Amen. It’s amazing how much better I feel when the bank account has more money.

Beautiful moon.

I’ve been ordering my groceries on line and picking them up for over three years now. BUT I still have to go inside to get bananas. For some reason the app doesn’t have that item.

Spanish! Walk! Anthony! K! AZ! 10.25.23

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:08 pm  

Still working hard!

OYB!

Español!

Jessi’s birthday card came in from Nana.

Had a good walk, 2.97 miles. 17 hills.

Ordered groceries.

Ordered new shirts and shoes for K.

I watched this car back into a car at Azalea. Just drove off like no big deal. I left a note on the car he hit.

Helped the kids at the mission.

Ordered more melatonin for Kathy. Seems to help her sleep.

Walk! J’s Birthday! Anthony! AZ! Bank! 10.24.23

Tim A. Cummins @ 9:42 pm  

OYB!

Walk!

Good chat with Anthony about his teacher training course.

Worked on a video for Peachtree Corners BC to use for fund raising.

Went to the bank to deposit checks.

Azalea apartments are putting in some new hedges.

Picked up the girls and took them to Waffle House.

They like to pretend they’re riding the Waffle House Horse.

Helped the kids with their homework. I had a shorter day because of Jessi’s party this evening. We still got a lot of it done.

Listened to Don Cheto while driving.

K and I took Jessi to Provinos. It’s our favorite Italian restaurant and has free birthday meals!

The Speedway gas station had a price drop to 2.79. I stopped in to fill up, check fluids and clean my windows.
