Bank! Yard Work! 4.2.20

Tim A. Cummins @ 11:12 pm  

Absolutely beautiful day here in the ATL.

Wild flowers are gorgeous.

I did my Spanish and brain training this morning.


Worked on my mileage log for this month. Not much going on because of the quarantine.

I captured and released squirrel number 94 today. Tends to pick up during the Spring and the Summer. I never transfer anything during the winter.

Went to the bank to deposit a check.

Gassed up my car. A new protocol for me is wiping everything down before I touch anything. I even wipe off the touchscreen at the bank.

I have about a half an acre of land. It’s a major job to do yardwork.

I picked up carts full of fallen branches.

I actually pushed over two dead trees and put them in my compost pile.

I cleaned off all of the honeysuckle and other weeds from my fences.

Had to use a shovel sometimes just to get it all cleaned up.


I took down almost all of the treehouse I had built for the kids almost 20 years ago. I actually called it the “Raptor Hide.” It was very high and had a zip line that we could escape from dinosaurs. It was dangerous. Ashley broke her arm on that zip line, to my horror. When I saw her arm I almost passed out. That was weird because I’m a hardened news man and I’ve seen people literally cut in half that I didn’t bat an eye for but when my little girl had a broken arm I almost fainted!



Mowing is a challenge.

I basically mow a forest.

I did about 2/3 of the backyard. All the hard part. If all goes well I’ll finish it up tomorrow.

Podcast! Bike! 4.1.20

Tim A. Cummins @ 9:14 pm  

Colder weather today.

Rained 1/4″ yesterday.

I did my brain training and studied Spanish this morning.


Recorded a new episode of Verbal Surgery.

I also released Verbal Surgery -748- Super Joy today! Terrific episode.

Rode my bike 15.19 miles. Quite a bit colder than it was yesterday.

Girls! Pizza! 4.31.20

Tim A. Cummins @ 5:41 pm  

Rainy and cool today. Major weather blew through.

Did my Spanish study and brain training.


Ashley and the grand girls came over today to do their laundry. Always fun to see them! I picked up some pizza for us to eat. Delicious!


The girls and Kathy and I enjoyed watching the live action version of Lion King. That was fun. Then they headed back to Chamblee. Sad to see them go!

Trapped and released a squirrel.

Just saying.

My plants are an endless source of joy.

Calls! Bike! 4.30.20

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:40 pm  

I had a great talk with my buddy Matt Hale last night. Always fun to hear from him.

Beautiful day.

I did my brain training and Spanish study this morning.




Reading Mind Over Mind.

Made some great calls.

Had fun talking with my buddy Amit Badiani as well as my Mom.

I went on a 15.70 mile bike ride.

My favorite part was smelling the wisteria in the air as I passed by the trees.

Parks were closed. Sad.

I loved the sunflowers.


I still find glass in my yard from the fire in 2008.

Research.

Tee hee.

Garden! Bike! Pick Up! 3.29.20

Tim A. Cummins @ 9:25 pm  

Mild.

I studied Spanish and did my brain training as usual for me.


Watched some of Westside Baptist Church this morning. Also Generation Church.

I worked on my indoor garden this morning. It really is a beautiful part of my life.








Rode my bike 14.74 miles.

Gorgeous outside.


Arch cloud.

I especially enjoyed looking at the Wisteria today. It’s fun to ride down the sidewalk and smell the different plants as you drive-by.


Here are a series of shots down roads were I have one of my routes. Looked like Walmart and Kroger were pretty full. Notice how hilly it is in the ATL.



All the soccer fields are empty. Wow.

Picked up groceries at Walmart.


I parked my car and had them put the groceries in my backseat, and was out of Walmart in about four minutes. Absolutely unbelievable. I can’t believe I wasn’t doing this a long time ago since it’s a free service if you’re buying more than $30 worth of groceries.

The cherry blossoms outside are blooming now. So beautiful.

I’ve been trying to identify a particular bird sound. I think this thrush or warbler made it. I still haven’t had a good look at him.

Interesting.

Two years ago at the Hypnosis conference in Brazil. I was the final speaker.

Pick Up! Bike! 3.28.20

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:06 pm  

I studied Spanish and did my brain training. I got the Muse to work properly so that was good.


Had a great talk with my buddy, Anthony.

Rinsed pollen off of my cars.

I went through all of the poems that I know and wrote them on cards. It becomes tiresome after a while to practice everything every day so I’m gonna put them on rotation. I know over 30 pieces of poetry. It takes around 30 minutes to quote it all.



A few shots of objects from my desk.


Several of my orchids are blooming right now.



I went on a 12.76 mile bike ride. Beautiful today.

Listened to Harry Potter in Spanish.

Picked up my groceries from Walmart. It’s the first time I’ve ever ordered it online and have them do it all. Sure was easier than going to do it myself! Just need to make sure you have over $30 of groceries to get the service for free.

Podcast! Bike! 3.27.20

Tim A. Cummins @ 10:34 pm  

It was a very warm day today. Up to 88°.


I studied Spanish this morning. My Muse device was having problems sensing Brainwaves today. I did my brain training, just without the technology attached.

Released a new episode of Verbal Surgery. For all the hippies out there, “Flower Power” is for you.


I downloaded the Walmart grocery app today. I ordered all of my groceries online. It was very easy. I set up a time to come by and pick it up: tomorrow 4-5 PM. I pay for it there. And it doesn’t cost any extra money! Which was amazing.


Replanted an aloe.

Went on a 12.77 mile bike ride today.


It was marvelous. The air was just perfect. Everything was so beautiful. Highly recommend bicycle riding during these crisis times.


It was so weird to look up in the sky this evening and only see one airplane with one contrail. Normally the whole sky is full of those. Our airport in Atlanta is the biggest in the world.

Building blocks of life. Beans and rice.

We finished the labels together and got the newsletters in the mail.

Got a box of donuts. Delicious.

Enjoying the book, Mind Over Mind.

Used some my high-tech oil on my bicycle chain today.

Rode my bike 12.70 miles.

So beautiful. Wisteria! I have five little plants I’m growing.



Cleaned and painted my shoes.

Podcast! Bike! Labels! 3.25.20

Tim A. Cummins @ 10:12 pm  

I recorded an episode of Verbal Surgery today. Always fun.

Studied Spanish.

Rained another inch last night. Equal to about two more gallons of rainwater for my collection.

Got stamps.

Good talk with Anthony and Kat.

Went for a 10.97 mile bike ride. Beautiful weather. Great ride. Had fun taking pictures of nature.




Working on getting the labels on the envelopes for the newsletters. Ashley and the girls are supposed to come over tomorrow. Will fold the newsletters and get all of those in the mail tomorrow. It’s best to try to keep as much of our normal behavior as possible.

Podcast! Water! Newsletter! 3.24.20

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:50 pm  

Rained slightly more than 1.5″.

Reading Mind Over Mind.

The county where I live is now closing down its parks.


Did my brain training and Spanish study this morning.





I figured out a way to get the leaf matter out of the rain water that I collected yesterday.

I produced my newsletter. Hopefully will get that printed up by our friend at church soon.


Released a new episode of Verbal Surgery called “I Patch.” That’s always good!

Took a few pictures of objects on my desk for your amusement.
