Enjoyed lunch with my girls.

Went to the airport to pick up my mom, Peggy Cummins! GREAT to see her!

Picked up Ashley and Penelope and went to the mission.



Penelope liked this jeep.

Mr. Google has taken us home in at least ten different directions in the last two weeks. Go AI! It’s been fun to see new parts of Atlanta AND beat traffic by miles!

Picked up Kathy and treated my Mom to some good Southern cooking at M&J’s!

Admin duties now.

Poison Ivy has been rough. Grrrr. Hard not to scratch!

I liked this sticker.

This truck drove in the middle of two lanes for miles. Never seen that before.

And this sign.

Cool penguin advertising the Georgia Aquarium.

Beauty all around.

Went to Walmart to do the shopping.

Washed my car.

Went to lunch with Kathy and Jesse.

Came home to study Portuguese and get ready for the mission.

Went by Lowes to check on washers. I’m thinking about using them at the conferences in order to help people remember their awesomeness!

Of course I’ll paint them gold!

Picked up Ashley and Penelope in Clarkston. Then fought traffic to the mission.

Enjoyed working with the kids.

Back through traffic on the way home. Having 85 messed up has made driving home a lot harder. Sure am glad for Mr. Google figuring out new ways to get home!

Did a 6.34 mile bike ride. Takes me a little over 30 minutes which is my goal three times a week.

Suffering with poison ivy from this weekend’s yard work.

Beautiful flowers at Walmart today.

I liked this sticker.

Picked up supplies.

Installed a Bluetooth device in my car for my iPhone 7+.

Now I can listen to audio AND charge my phone. Still not sure about Apple’s decision to eliminate the 3.5mm headphone jack.

Been studying Portuguese. Looking forward to my trip to Brazil next January! One day I’ll study Italian and then I can make complicated mistakes in ALL the Romance languages. I’m using Duolingo and listening to books on tape in Portuguese. There are a LOT of cognates and words similar to Spanish so I’m way ahead of starting from ground zero. The pronunciation is tricky. I immerse myself in the sound of the language.
Cleaned and refilled my hummingbird feeders. Love those little birds!

Gassed up the car.

Worked at the mission with the kids.



I had some older kids visit me today. Amazing how fast they grow up!

Easter! Westside!

Tim A. Cummins @ 7:17 pm  

Sunday morning, Kathy and I met up with Ashley and Penelope at Westside Baptist Church.

The choir did a great musical.


I liked the life size cross.

Pastor Ben was fired up in his sermon!

This was my first Easter since Pilgrim Tim went to the Holy Land. It means so much more to me now that I can envision the events and where they took place in my mind.

He’s not dead! HE is RISEN!

We ate lunch with the congregation. Ashley ate with the Kendalls.

Came home to rest.

Went for a 6.27 bike ride.

Kids sized.

I liked this mirror vase.

Yard Work!

Tim A. Cummins @ 10:14 pm  

Spent several hours today working on the yard.

Mowed.

Weeded.

Raked.

cut ivy off of the trees.

Cut back a bunch of branches.

Cleaned up. Looks a lot better, but it was really hard, heavy work.


I actually walked 2.36 miles. Wow!

Just about wiped me out. Got really nauseated and threw up a few times. Delightful.

Rested for an hour or so and felt better.

Cleaned the fish tank.

Repaired my comforter. Probably sewed at least 15 tears.

Organized my iPhone7+. I have so many photo editing apps I needed to put all the stuff in separate folders.

Lot better now.

Enjoyed playing Battlefront.

Shopping! Family! Mission! Penelope!

Tim A. Cummins @ 1:33 pm  

Thursday, I recorded! I didn’t have a chance to upload the episode because I had Penelope spend the night. Friday morning, Ashley had an early doctor’s appointment.

I spent about an hour talking to the billing department of the company that handles Kathy’s CPAP and Oxygen needs.

I did the family shopping.

Kathy bought some little cups on our Safari to Rome last week. The girls enjoyed a little tea party.

Jesse came over. too! I brought Crazy Ron’s BBQ home. Delicious.

J and I also went through what our lawyer told him about his new company. Looks like everything is going according to plan.

Jesse and I went to Walmart. His glasses had broken one of the arms off. Incredibly, they were still under warranty until SATURDAY! Wow. So free replacement. God is good.

I got the device in the mail to attach my iPhone7+ to the pistol grip for shooting videos and pictures of the teams.

It works great. Very secure.

Went to Clarkston to pick up Ashley and Penelope and went to the mission to help the kids. Lots of homework today.

Penelope in her Supervisory Position.


Brought Penelope home with me to spend the night. I got about six hours of sleep. It’s Friday now. I had a nice nap and feel better. She’s such a blessing.

I liked these African Violets of Ashley’s.

Bike! Girls! Mission!

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:26 pm  

This morning I went for a 4.94 mile bike ride.

I’m still figuring out the exact route that I’ll be taking. I’m determining where the best side walks and fewest cars are.

Beauty!

Got subs for Ashley, Penelope and me. K was getting her hair done.

Met up with AP at Azalea. Helped the kids with their homework.

Penelope has the sniffles. Pollen I reckon.

BRAIN.

It was the first time that I’ve actually seen Penelope draw. She was quite colorful!

BAD traffic on the way home. Ate some chicken and got subs for J before I fought traffic.

I’m starting to use Google’s Maps a lot more. The traffic is so bad because of the i85 collapse. Mr. Google is always taking me some back way and suddenly I’m in front of everyone. It’s glorious.

Worked on the plants outside. Fed the animals.

Admin duties now.

Beautiful clouds.

I installed the app “Retouch” on my iPhone7+. It took out the lights.

Vacuumed the house this morning.


Blew the back deck.

Recorded a new podcast! WOOT! Love to hear myself talk!

Went out to eat with Jesse and the girls!


Worked with the kids at the mission.

My Venus Fly Traps are all blooming.

A moment ago, I went outside and heard over 100 crows flying over my house! Wow! I’ve never seen a murder of crows that big in real life.

This morning I had fun: RECORDING!

Jesse set up a small office with VR gear development in our walk in closet. Penelope enjoyed typing.

Ate lunch with the family.

Then to Dollar Tree to look for fun stuff for Penelope.

We liked the hats.

Came home to work on media projects.

Picked up Ashley and Penelope in Clarkston.

Went to the mission to help the kids. Not much homework going on right now.

Traffic was terrible. Decided to use Mr. Google to find an alternate route. Sure enough saved us at least 20 minutes this evening following the Ai’s suggestions. And believe me, that is exactly what it is: Artificial Intelligence.

Worked on my plants. Restocked the feeders. Had to change the filter on my light. We’ve had some short power outages. When that happens it goes back to the default mode which is a random selection of colors. Raccoons can see those colors, just not red.

Got a new grip for my iPhone. I need to get a better adapter to connect it. It will we way easier to be safe with the phone with this grip. I’m constantly thinking of how to make the videos and photography better for the teams.
