Talked to Scott Deter who is our health insurance agent about my Mom’s dental account. I set up an online account with the insurance company, but couldn’t pay the bill on online. I’ll call them on Monday.

Screenshot

I’m having an issue with my payroll company. Chat GPT gave me some advice.

I like Deepstash, because when I have time I can study something useful.

These Redbud trees are absolutely gorgeous right now.

Took my Mom to get her haircut.

Already starting to get warm.

Ordered groceries.

Laundry! K and CT Scan! Laundry! 3.20.26

Tim A. Cummins @ 7:07 pm  

I edited the video, uploaded it to YouTube, and sent the Southshore team their Thank You note which included all the photo galleries and the video.

Deepstash!

OYB!

Nakuru weather.

Screenshot

Nana was concerned that the shower curtain might catch her walker so I moved it in about four inches.

Español!

Screenshot

Confirmed my eye appointment for next week.

Screenshot

Drove to Duluth with K to pick up her CT Scan disk that she had in December of last year.

Screenshot

Then to Lawrenceville to go to the Imaging Clinic for her scan today.

Screenshot

The current administration is making air travel a misery.

Screenshot

Sorry to hear this. I really liked Chuck Norris.

Screenshot

As a treat, we stopped at Donnie’s on the way home. We used to eat there regularly but they moved their location to about twenty minutes away.

Screenshot

I’m working on getting oxygen for K.

Screenshot

Looking forward to seeing this movie soon.

Screenshot

I’m always trying to make my email more manageable.

Screenshot

Did my laundry.

Vocabulario!

Screenshot

Keep going.

Laurens! Southshore! Plaza Fiesta! 3.19.26

Tim A. Cummins @ 7:22 pm  

From David Coggins’ book.

Screenshot

Got J a new keyboard.

Screenshot

We had a couple of guests come to The Show this morning. Lauren is planning on bringing a group in the future.

Screenshot

OYB!

Don Cheto!

Screenshot

Got to FBC Doraville early to set up and study Español!

Screenshot
Screenshot

The team got there 20 minutes early! I didn’t see that coming.

I had a good time with the two Laurens. I showed them around Plaza Fiesta and the Buford Highway Farmers Market!

Confirmed an appointment for my Mom.

Screenshot

I just confirmed an appointment for a CT Scan for K tomorrow.

I had a great Dedication Day with the Southshore team from Florida. They passed the baton, filled out their prayer card, and signed the Landing Pad.

Took them on Safari to Plaza Fiesta!

Always something interesting to see.

Keep going.

BAPS Temple! Kitab! Global Mall! AZ! SP! 3.18.26

Tim A. Cummins @ 7:44 pm  

OYB!

Morning set up at FBC Doraville.

Screenshot

I left a key with the group leader from Florida. I asked him to put it in our mailbox/lock box after they leave on Thursday night. Made sure the Deacon knew what was going on.

Español!

Screenshot

Took the team on Safari to the BAPS Temple, Kitab Bookstore and Global Mall.

Screenshot

Picked the grandgirls up at the bus and took them to Taco Veloz.

Seems like I’m scheduling medical appointments a lot.

Screenshot
Screenshot

Deposited checks. Thank you, Father. I really appreciate it.

Deepstash.

Screenshot

Listened to Don Cheto on the way home.

Screenshot

Had a fun time with the teams today. Took them on Safari.

Ministry with the kids. It’s their last day at the Missions!

Hopefully, we can get this medical document and get J’s taxes going.

OYB!

Cold day. But better than yesterday!

Screenshot

Español!

Screenshot

Took the grandgirls to Pho 24.

Keep going.

Screenshot

Had a great morning with the team from Florida. Took them on Safari to Asian Square and China Town.

We helped Mr. John set the crosses in the ground at FBC Doraville. I know he appreciated that!

Worked with the kids at Azalea and S. Pines.

Team Prep! PE! Snow! Rain! Southshore! 3.16.26

Tim A. Cummins @ 7:17 pm  

I liked Eric Barker’s blog today on aging.

Screenshot
Screenshot

OYB!

Deepstash!

Screenshot

Got a nice note from one of the team leaders from last week.

Screenshot

Set up the Fellowship Hall to handle lunch for the church members after the funeral. The Florida team will use six of the tables for lunch and dinner the rest of the week.

Español!

Screenshot
Screenshot
Screenshot

We had drizzle and snow flurries this afternoon. I think the Florida team was kind of amazed by it. Me too!

Screenshot

Got a text from a prospective team. Always good.

Screenshot

I gave him a thumbs up.

Picked up the grandgirls and took them to Burger King and White Windmill.

Listened to Don Cheto.

Screenshot

Always gathering information.

Screenshot

Temps are really dropping. And the wind!

Screenshot

I sent a check to pay for my tax return: $365. No way I could have done it without their expertise. Still not sure the housing allowance was done correctly. I sent an email to Lamar to ask if he’d looked at it to make sure it was right. We’ll see.

I seem to be ok with being in the top ten.

Screenshot

Had a great time with Southshore Community Church from Sarasota, FL. Very enthusiastic. Not sure what they thought about the weather, but they seemed to appreciate the kids.

Mild! Podcast! Stone Mountain! 3.15.26

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:10 pm  

Very mild today, sprinkles. Supposed to have a hard freeze Monday night.

Screenshot

Continuing to find out details about the team coming tomorrow. Biggest factor being that they’re not eating lunch with me.

Screenshot

OYB!

I had issues uploading files last night. I restarted my computer and it worked fine.

I recorded a new episode of Verbal Surgery called “Zoom.”

Looks like they’re shooting a big movie at Stone Mountain. Even putting up power lines .

Effort.

Anthony! Team Prep! Arc Raiders! 3.14.26

Tim A. Cummins @ 6:56 pm  

I sent a message to the team leader for next week’s trip but it never got to him. It was sent to the work phone number rather than his cell number. I got that sorted out now.

Screenshot
Screenshot

OYB!

Español!

Screenshot

Added a team to our schedule in April from Birmingham.

Screenshot

Updated the cell numbers.

Screenshot

Deepstash!

Good talk with my buddy, Anthony.

Screenshot

I’ve enjoyed a rest day. Had fun playing Arc Raiders.

Screenshot

Keep going.

I’ve had some issues with my desktop version of Smugmug. Not sure what’s going on. I contacted Smugmug.

PEK! Thank You Letters! 3.13.26

Tim A. Cummins @ 7:30 pm  

I finished editing and uploading the third team’s video this morning.

Screenshot
Screenshot

OYB!

Got in touch with Don Howard this morning.

Screenshot

Español!

Screenshot

The girls spent the night since they didn’t have school today. We went to Hot and Cold for lunch.

I timed them running.

Screenshot

Tried to get in touch with her, but wasn’t able to.

Screenshot

I was able to get the CT scan set up for K. We will have to go back to the Duluth office to pick up the disk of K’s previous scan. What a hassle.

Screenshot

Lots of stuff to track.

Screenshot
Screenshot
Screenshot
Screenshot

I’m having trouble uploading pictures to Smugmug through my desktop MacAir. Mobile works fine. Weird. I took this picture as a test.

I wrote the Thank You letters to the three teams. They include links to all the photo galleries and to the video. When I’ve sent those letters off, I consider the team “complete.”

Just keep going.

D-Day! Gas! BHFM! Team Prep! 3.11.26

Tim A. Cummins @ 5:53 pm  

Trying to get a head start on the food orders for the teams next week.

We visited Plaza Fiesta. Always cool things to see and eat!

I need to get K scheduled for her CT Scan for her lung.

Screenshot

Chilly today.

Screenshot

Processed and deposited checks. Thank you so much, Father!

After I left the teams, I set up the chairs, cleaned up and threw away trash.

I set up each chair with what they’ll need.

I picked up groceries on the way home. I had the grandgirls with me! I also gassed up the car and checked the oil.

I edited two of the three videos. It’s hard to keep the three different teams separate when you’re making the final video. I have to keep lists of all the people so I can verify who’s in which video.

Screenshot
Screenshot

I had a meaningful time with the teams this morning. It’s our D-Day. Dedication Day.

We ate at Plaza Fiesta. I need to find a better place for these guys to eat. It’s just kind of hard with thirty people. Place has to be pretty big.
