Bike! Clouds! 6.12.20

Tim A. Cummins @ 10:02 pm  

Been studying tree climbing recently. I’m interested in trimming some of the branches off some of my trees. Not real high up off the ground. Curious to see how hard that would be.

Studied Spanish and did my brain training.


Had a great talk with my buddy Anthony in the UK and Dash here in the USA. I

It was a beautiful day today.

I rode my bike 15.45 miles.

I always like going right at dusk. The light through the clouds was absolutely gorgeous.

I like the contrast and the bright colors.

Tim A. Cummins @ 9:43 pm  

Studied Spanish and did my brain training.

Beautiful day today. Much less humidity.


In centigrade.

Also studied Hebrew letters.

I got a call as a character reference for a friend of mine so he could get some housing.

Mowed the lawn. Massive job.


Put up some new windmills near the front of my house.


Trimmed small limbs coming from the bottom of the tree.

Trimmed the azaleas way back.

I thought these roots were interesting.

I’m looking at transplanting monkey grass to the front of my yard.

Cleared some rocks away from my fence.

Picked up groceries today.


Cleaned them off and brought them inside.

I also saw site for COVID-19 testing. That’s the first I’ve seen that.

Bills! Microwave! Storms! 6.10.20

Rainy day. Big thunder storms rolled through the ATL.

Enjoyed playing Horizon Zero Dawn. Fantastic artwork.


Microwave conked out. That’s never good. Got another one ordered.

Yard Work! Groceries! Thunderstorms! 6.9.20

Tim A. Cummins @ 9:30 pm  

I studied Spanish and did my brain training.


Cleaned out the bird baths.

Mowed half of my backyard.


Picked up a lot of branches on the ground.

I could see some of them were already being eaten by the mycelium.

I put them in my pit with the other lumber.

After I finished mowing, I restapled the tarp covering a small section of my roof. It’s not leaking, but the wood is soft so I’m protecting it from further damage until I get the roof repair guys over.

Went to Walmart to pick up my groceries.

Cleaned them all up before I brought them inside the house.

Powerful thunderstorms went through the ATL today.

I got a bag of dog food to feed the raccoons.

Threw some out in front of the red light so I can watch them. The raccoons and possums cannot see that spectrum of light. So it’s easy to see them but they think they’re standing in the dark.

Released an episode of Verbal Surgery called “Just Let Go 2.” An excellent edition.

Also released a squirrel today.

Jon! Bank! Bike! 6.8.20

Tim A. Cummins @ 9:38 pm  

I studied Spanish and did my brain training.




Had a good talk with my friend Jon. He lost his wife one year ago yesterday. It was a very sad time for us all.

Went into Chamblee to check on the mail. Watered my tree while I was at the office.

Went to the bank to deposit checks.

That’s always good!

Went to Walmart to pick up my groceries but somehow there was a problem with the app. I made a re-order to get them tomorrow. The technology doesn’t always work.

Came home to ride my bike 13.29 miles. Beautiful clouds today.



I’m enjoying playing Horizon Zero Dawn.

Watered my plants. I love my green friends.

Rumi! Yard Work! Horizon Zero Dawn!

Tim A. Cummins @ 9:31 pm  

Studied Spanish and did my brain training.



Interesting study on Rumi a 13th century philosopher.


I’m starting to memorize one of his poems.

I keep a list of the poems I know.

Did a lot of yard work today. Started by picking out all the poison ivy I could find.

Later, I mowed the yard and made sure I shred that completely. It’s best to try to pull it up as much by the roots as possible. I’ve been doing this for years! I pretty much got it all cleaned out and then it’ll start going back here there.

Also edged the yard and cleaned up with the blower.

I still have two more days of yard work to do. I was absolutely soaked with sweat when I was finished.

I’ve been enjoying Horizon Zero Dawn. The art and the graphics are incredible.

Podcast! Bike! 5.6.20

Tim A. Cummins @ 11:58 pm  

I studied Spanish did my brain training today.



Perhaps you wonder why I tell you that every day. It’s because it encourages my behavior to have a streak.

Released new episode of Verbal Surgery “Blanket Conundrum.”

Had a fun talk with my buddy Anthony Jacquin.


He talked me through making an Italian red sauce. I thought it turned out pretty well.

Went for a 15.17 mile bike ride.

Beautiful clouds.

I’ve really enjoyed the art of Horizon Zero Dawn. This second time through it’s been interesting for me to look at all the different costumes.

Beautiful day today. It never did rain.

Put some air in my bike tires.

I rode my bike 15.16 miles.

Went over all my poetry. I keep notecards in my little bike pouch so I can glance down at new stuff.

I listened to Harry Potter in Spanish.

After my bike ride, I painted my shoes. Made them look good again.

Studied Spanish and did my brain training this morning.

Recorded a new episode of Verbal Surgery. That’s always good!

I released an episode called “Ramped up/Amped up.”

Get fired up: check it out!

Put in an order for pick up at Walmart tomorrow.

I got my new lid for my wok in today. Looking forward to using that.

Beautiful day today.

Enjoying playing Horizon Zero Dawn.
