Worked on a new video for the www.VerbalSurgery.com website. This one is about Losing Weight! I think it’ll be popular!

Also worked on a podcast! Heart WARMING! Want to be loved? GIVE LOVE! The more you warm other’s hearts, the more you warm your own!

Here’s my recording studio!


It’s a good one. Just click on the title!

Got some good exercise!

Biked 6.39 miles and ran 5.48 miles. I like my new RunKeeper app on my iPhone! Talk about exact! It also shows how many calories I burned (nearly 1,000) and how fast each went.

It’s a beautiful run.

I liked these mushrooms.

And this hibiscus.

Flowers!

Past Lake Lucerne.

And the Yellow River.

I liked this little pine tree growing out of a stump.

That’ll preach!

The trees are beginning to turn colors. Beauty!

Got a quick sandwich and paid for my car repair. I was expecting around $150. Turned out to be a little over $400. Ouch.

Went to the mission to work with the kids. Always fun.

I especially enjoyed working with Diego. It’s cute to watch the little one begin to read and write.

Had supper with Jesse. Always groovy!

Then came home to spend time with K and work on admin duties.

Are you smarter than a 4th grader?

This morning I worked on some flyers for a Pain Control seminar I’ll be doing at some local retirement homes. I have a special place in my heart for helping Seniors!

Took the financial report over to my treasurer’s house. THANKS to Ashley for generating that!

Went for lunch with Ashley and Jesse!

Then over to Perimeter Mall to look for some equipment for Ashley’s Mac. We got our money back but have to order the cable on line.

Ashley brought me my new iPhone 5 today! Went to the ATT store to get my new phone activated as well as change my old iPhone 4S into Miles’ account/phone number. GROOVY! I love my new phone!

Jerome did a great job setting it up!


Helped the kids at the mission today. They’re testing, so there’s not a whole lot of work going on.

K brought Sugar to the mission. The kids love her!

Picked up my car on the way home. It was leaking antifreeze out of the reservoir tank. If it’s going to leak, that’s the best place! Also had the dome light repaired. It was a hassle in the dark.

Back home now to work on admin duties and to sync up my new phone with all the applications it had on it.

Good day!

I like the sound of this!

We had a fun day yesterday with the whole family! We went to Marietta to check out the coin show! I bought a few old coins for $10. Over 2,000 years old!

Went for Brazilian for lunch. I love that place! But my stomach didn’t. Had bad cramping for the rest of the day and evening. Bahd luck.

Went to the mall to pick up some new pants for Jesse. He’s looking good!

Rested in Chamblee before going to Roswell for a family get together for Chili. Not exactly what the doctor ordered for my sickish stomach! I felt fine today!

Enjoyed a fun morning today with my new friend Richard. We talked about neurology and hypnosis.

Went to the mission this afternoon to work with the kids. They didn’t have much homework because they’re testing. We gave a couple of our older kids some new computers. They loved them!

Got home and went on a 5 mile run. Felt good in the cool air.

Had fun watching TV with K this evening.

This has been a fun and productive Friday!

I worked on a new podcast this morning.

Check out “Shine!” You’ll feel enlightened!

As I may have mentioned, I’m quite popular on social media. I have over 80,000 followers on Twitter!

Every week I practice some creative writing and then I post it on an automated server that spreads it out over 5 times a day. Today I posted up until mid December! So I’m pretty far ahead!

Went to eat Greek food with K and J. Delicious Greek salad for me!

Then I took Kathy’s bike over to the bike shop to work on her brakes.

Our neighborhood is WAY to hilly to go without excellent brakes! They got it done while I waited.

Came home to do some more writing. Love being creative! Added some more material to the www.VerbalSurgery.com site.

Worked out on weights this afternoon. I feel pumped up!

I heard back from Ian today. He ran over 16 miles! I think that’s amazing. He’s a Tiger Tank!

Working on admin duties now. Yeah, baby!

Had a restful morning today!

Then ran and biked for about 2 1/2 hours! Biked about 6.5 miles and then ran another 6.2 miles. Yow!

After running, I weighed in at my goal weight of 168 lbs. Groovy, baby! I’ll be losing a bit more than that still just to make sure I stay under that level. I’m looking forward to doing my blood work again to verify that everything in my body is back in order. ; )

It was a new trail I worked up. Beautiful!

I liked this lion.

And these flowers!

And this squashed snake.

Ate lunch with J and K at Zaxbys.

Ian North came over for some coaching time with me. We worked on some visualization techniques for his big race tomorrow. He’ll be going 31 miles! I’m proud of him.

Enjoyed watching Memorial Day with Kathy this evening.

Admin duties now.

This reminded me of me.

Had a wonderful time at Providence Christian Academy today with Ashley!

We spoke at the Ethics, Missions & Evangelism class of our dear friend Dr. Carl Barrington!


Had some terrific students.

Ashley and I brought our A game!

Went to the church to check on office duties and take a short rest before going to the mission to help the kids.

They’re doing a lot of testing now so not really much homework. They’re happy about that!


Came home with Jesse to spend the weekend with us. Always good!

Enjoyed family time this evening.

Worked on admin duties including deleting hundreds of pictures and videos off my iPhone that were taking up way too much room. I have duplicates that I shot with my Canon.

Looking forward to spending some time with Ian North tomorrow.

Had fun this morning recording a new podcast!

Want more happiness out of your life? SERVE OTHERS! The more you focus on other people the happier you become. That’s why it’s better to be a YOUman! Click on the title and get to feeling good, NOW!

Met up for lunch with Doug Allison, Ashley and Jesse!

We went to Plaza Fiesta for lunch and to show Doug around.

Also picked up the holster for my iPhone. I got it modified to fit the longer iPhone 5.

Went to the mission to drop off some computers that Doug had brought for us. GREAT!

Ashley and I went by FedX to do some copies for the mission. She’s redecorating the computer room. Lookin’ good!

Also picked up some super glue for some projects I’m working on.

We also got flu shots. Ouch! Actually, they didn’t hurt bad at all.

I bought a skeleton when I was at Walgreens. I put in the back seat of my car. Funny!

Then to work with the kids. Always fun.

Gave some of the girls some popcycles!

Came home and ran 2.75 miles in the dark. Needed the exercise to burn off stress.

Enjoying spending time with K this evening.

Ashley and I will be speaking to Carl Barrington’s Bible class at Providence Christian Academy in the morning. Looking forward to that!

Over the last week or so I’ve been working on my new website: www.VerbalSurgery.com. I’ve been fascinated by how the mind can heal the body. Many times that happens through the power of prayer. Others by the power of our minds to focus our attention and harness our ability to visualize. I’ve enjoyed studying neurology, hypnosis, meditation and brain science for over thirty years. This new website illustrates that part of me as well as being home to my proverbs and my podcast Verbal Surgery.

Had an early lunch with one of my favorite youth directors, Ben Birdsong from FBC Pelham!

We had fun eating at Ashiana and seeing my Hindu priest friend, Tek. It’s always great to have the whole family together!

I also got a new Kurta, a formal Indian attire for a wedding.

I’m looking forward to the big festival with my friend Amit Badiani in England in less than a month. He’s like a brother to me!

Came home to exercise. Had a 5 mile run today.

Cleaned up, then on to Azalea to help the kids with their homework. Our biggest group, the 5th graders, were testing so they didn’t have much homework.


Went to Plaza Fiesta to get my friend to rework my holster for my new iPhone 5 which is longer than my iPhone 4s. He seemed confident he could do it!

Also went shopping for fruits and vegetables while I was there. My diet has been pretty successful. So far I’ve lost about 14 pounds.

Jesse has been staying with us on the weekends. It’s always nice when he’s here! And I enjoy having Kathy all to myself when he’s not. So I reckon it’s a win-win!

We enjoyed watching Castle and Dancing with the Stars. I can’t believe I said that.

Jesse, Kathy and I had fun at the zoo today!

Always something fun to see!

I liked the Orangs!

They are doing research there!

Beautiful birds reminded me of Kenya!


Never too much giraffe!


The star of the show today for me was the gorilla baby!

Rock on!

He didn’t seem impressed!

Simba!

Meercats!

Working on the new VerbalSurgery.com website.

Admin duties now.

Who would buy boots like these?

Kathy, Jesse and I went to Clarkston International Bible Church this morning.

This is the program that Kathy works in.

Pastor Phil spoke about the importance of Israel.

We enjoyed Indian food at Kathmandu grill before coming home.

Had a nice rest, then went out for exercise.

I biked 7.15 miles to Stone Mountain, then ran 4.12 miles at the Bird Sanctuary and to the lake, then rode 7.11 miles back home. Took about 2.5 hours to do that. Yow! It’s beautiful out there!

I thought this mushroom was huge!

I liked these leaves.

Couldn’t believe an azalea was blooming!

Came home and trimmed the bushes in the yard and fixed a gate. We need to keep Sugar penned up more. Silly dog has been running around the neighborhood too far lately.

K and I enjoyed watching TV.

Admin duties now!

Can’t believe they’re putting up Christmas stuff already!

Yes, we do!
