Arc! Podcast! 11.30.25

Tim A. Cummins @ 5:31 pm  

For a game as big as Arc Raiders, you have to research if you want to do well.

Cold and rainy. Good day to be inside.

My first PS5 controller developed stick shift. I found a company that fixes them.

Cold!

I recorded a new episode of Verbal Surgery called, “Nudge.” I’ll release it tomorrow.

I looked up when I first started playing Arc Raiders. It’s been one of my favorite games ever because of meeting and playing with other people.

Close.

One more day.

Penelope’s Birthday! Thanksgiving @ Ash & Miles! 11.27.25

Tim A. Cummins @ 5:26 pm  

I wrapped the presents for Penelope & Everly last night.

Cold!

OYB!

Great to have the family together!

We had a fun time watching Penelope open gifts.

I love how Ashley does themed parties. They are going to take her to a special wildlife reserve that has animal encounters. One of them is with a Fennec fox. That’s by far her favorite animal. I think it’ll be a dream come true.

A great time!

Adelante!

Penelope! Nana! Dollar Tree! Guidestone! 11.26.25

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:33 pm  

Ten years ago tomorrow, my beloved Penelope was born! What a blessing! We’re having a Thanksgiving/Birthday Party at Ashley’s house for her tomorrow.

This may be a good place to look for mushrooms on Arc Raiders.

Vocabulario.

OYB!

Beauty!

We were expecting to have the girls all day long. Miles got them around noon. We were sad to see them go.

I just printed off the sleep form for J.

Screenshot

Took Nana for a hair wash/dry.

Went by the Dollar Tree to get presents for Penelope and Everly.

My carnivorous plants go outside during the Winter. They are N. American plants and need a dormant season to do well. I bring them inside whenever it gets in the 30s. They are too exposed in the water and in pots above ground to handle those temperatures, imho.

I keep them under the table in my sun room.

My Mom and I were on the phone with Guidestone for about 1.5 hours today. I think we got the situation figured out. We wanted to get a direct deposit rather than a paper check for the end of the year property taxes. We had to fill out a couple of files and take pictures and send them back to Guidestone. They said they got the information so I reckon it will work out.

Screenshot

Did some laundry for my Mom.

Went to DQ to pick up the ice cream cake for Penelope. Yeah, baby!

I put it in our freezer until tomorrow when we go to the party.

Ash and I are still working on details.

Screenshot

Just. Keep. Going.

Eye Doctor! Tree! PE! 11.25.25

Tim A. Cummins @ 6:32 pm  

PE are still spending the nights with us. I love having J help the girls.

They’re having fun!

Got up a little early to study and then take Nana to the eye doctor with PE.

Screenshot

I reckon this sounds reasonable.

Screenshot

Big front blew in this morning.

I’m propagating some ficus rootings. I have enough light by my bed to keep them happy.

Nana, PE and I went to the eye doctor. Her eyes are looking the same, which is actually good news.

Screenshot

Medicine is big business.

These trees coming up from the ground are cool. The girls had never seen anything like that before.

We went to Good Will and 5 Below to look for birthday presents. You can tell they’re growing up. The things they really enjoyed, now they pass without a glance.

It’s all about longevity.

PE! Stone Mountain! Groceries! 11.24.25

Tim A. Cummins @ 9:14 pm  

PE spent the night. Always a blessing!

Beautiful weather!

Screenshot

OYB!

As I predicted, I came in third place last week.

Screenshot
Screenshot

Did my laundry.

The girls and I climbed Stone Mountain. We made it over half way. Too scary for them to go any higher.

This is Campsite #1. We mark our names on the rock.

It was a lovely walk. I go on the side of the mountain with less people.

True!

Good exercise.

Screenshot
Screenshot

We listened to our first playlist on our way home. This is the first song.

Screenshot

Still studying Arc Raiders.

Screenshot

The groceries were delayed. I picked them up an hour later. We had a technical issue with the Walmart app. We got four or five times more than we meant to on some items. Like four 24 packs of Coke, instead of one.

Screenshot

The girls seem happy and comfortable at our house. Love them so much!

Beautiful sunset.

I released Verbal Surgery -1130- “100%” today. Excellence in broadcasting

Don’t stop. Won’t stop.

Car! Leaves! PE! 11.23.25

Tim A. Cummins @ 9:15 pm  

K’s sister Ann died last night. Her life was so bad at the end. K did a lot to make it a little better.

Got my new PS5 controller in today! Works great!

Screenshot

OYB!

Ordered groceries. I’ll pick them up tomorrow.

Screenshot

Español!

Screenshot

I’ll be taking my Mom to the eye doctor on Tuesday.

Screenshot

Texted my yard guy again. He’s never worked for me. I know he does a yard at the bottom of my street.

Screenshot

Watered my upstairs plants.

Gorgeous weather. Changing this week.

Screenshot
Screenshot

Vocabulario.

Screenshot

Enjoying playing Arc Raiders. I spend a lot of time figuring out where the items I need are.

Screenshot

Gassed up my car, checked oil, and cleaned the windows.

I stapled down the linoleum in the sun room area.

Listened to Don Cheto while I moved leaves.

Screenshot

The leaves accumulate fast. I want to keep them out of the road.

Screenshot

Picked up my stuff and checked out the final product.

Then cleaned off the deck.

Looks better.

Glad to have the girls over for a few nights.

Third place this week.

Bike! Rubber Tree! Plants! 11.22.25

Tim A. Cummins @ 7:01 pm  

Checked my blood pressure last night. Looked good.

Ordered more Jasmine wax melts.

Screenshot

I enjoy watching videos on YouTube about playing Arc Raiders better. I’ve gotten some fantastic tips.

Screenshot

Vocabulario.

Screenshot

Mom got a note from her eye doctor. We were expecting this.

Screenshot

Incredibly warm for my bike ride. I’m doing as much as I can outside when the weather is nice.

Screenshot

OYB!

Rode my bike 12.38 miles in 1:17 hours.

When I brought my rubber tree inside, I trimmed the long branches off. I decided to try and propagate the plants. I haven’t been successful in the past. First you have to cut the plants at an angle and trim the bottom leaves off.This is the mother plant in the back.

I used a distilled water gallon jug as a planter and put perlite and water in it. I put some rooting hormone on the tips. Things usually do a lot better for rooting in warm environments, which my room doesn’t have right now. We’ll see. Can’t do it unless you try.

Put up my table and tools and watered the rest of my plants.

Rode my bike 12.40 miles in 1:18:24 hours.

Screenshot

My PS5 controller was having “stick drift” where the camera or character moves with no input from me. Super irratating. I watched a few videos and tried the solution and they worked!

Screenshot
Screenshot

Took Nana to get her hair washed, trimmed and dried. Makes her happy. Makes me happy.

I taped down a section of carpet that was pulling up.

Keep going.
