I wore my old blue jeans. The newer pair needed washing, which I did along with the rest of the laundry.
OYB!
Took Mom to her eye doctor this morning. They did a thorough exam, took pictures and then gave her shots for macular degeneration in both eyes.
I like all the models and posters.
Here’s the data from the visit.
Got gas and checked the oil.
Got this note from my buddy Paul. It’s a serious matter and kind of mysterious. Huh. I prayed for him.
I’ve made contact with J’s sleep doctor. Trying to make some progress on Jessi’s sleep.
Ordered groceries this morning and picked them up on the way home.
Got this email today.
Deposited checks. Thank you, Father. I really appreciate it.
Helped the kids at the Mission.
I was notified about some black dude who was cutting through Azalea. I let the manager know
Coordinating with Mom’s PT team.
I’ll probably come in second place this week.
These articles have been really good. “Ahorita” was explained. It literally means “Just a moment,” but apparently, it can mean pretty much anytime. Maybe even later this month! I’ve enjoyed the Unedo app.
Two of my baby rose bushes are blooming. I love the candy stripe look.
Español!
Beautiful weather.
I’ve been to this museum in Mexico City. It was one of the lessons from Unedo.
I started walking up and down my hill again. It usually takes me about 45 minutes to drink my coffee. I’ll exercise while I’m doing the last of my lessons. Another about thirty minutes. I can’t do lessons, hold a phone and a coffee cup.
I took J’s blanket and washed it in one of the industrial washing machines at Azalea.
We picked up the girls and took them to Bobby’s cheeseburgers.
The girls had fun doing their cheerleader routines. They would call out the letters of their sister’s name.
Kathy helped me with the kids at the Mission today. Amen.
Coordinating Mom’s PT appointments.
She goes to the eye doctor tomorrow morning.
Ordered J’s medical equipment.
I’ve had my Mom’s bags on and under a six foot table in my room. This evening, I took an inventory of the six bags remaining to unpack and put away. I’ll be glad to get that table put up.
Keep going.

Vocabulary with Unedo. I’ve enjoyed the puzzles and the “sparks” little articles about Latin life.
Went for my “annual” physical. My blood pressure was a little high. They drew blood from my hand. I saw Dr. Lee. I thought she did a good job, but the exam wasn’t particularly thorough.
I took my old foam mattress off my bed, cut it up into pieces and put them in garbage bags to be thrown away. My new mattress is not nearly as dense.
Swept all the little pieces up.
Did laundry.
Took my Mom to get a hair cut. She liked her new hair dresser.
I saw these locks in the parking lot.
Keep going.

I put my new hummingbird feeder pole up this morning. Fun to watch the little birds. Having one in front of the house will give the other feeders less competition. He can’t chase what he can’t see.
I set up a new storage area container for my Mom.
I put my Mom’s new side table together.
I got to use my new screwdrivers. Amen.
I did a lot of yard work as well as biking.
K and I picked up the girls. I got to choose Taco Veloz for dinner. So good.
I braided Everly’s hair. She wasn’t impressed.
We went by Huntley Hills Elementary to see Penelope’s class and get a book she needed. I saw this by the bathrooms.
K and P stayed at Ashley’s house while E and I went to Azalea. Went to the bank to deposit money. What a blessing you are to me, Father!
Azalea for tutor time.
Ordered a new stapler for the Mission.
I put a new screen protector on K’s iPhone 11 Pro Max.
A lot of serious students this week.

I sent a text to a volunteer who’s been helping me at the Mission.
Vocabulario.
Setting up appointments.
OYB!
I’ve been taking my roses more seriously. I planted four more this Spring.
Español!
Setting up a pre-site visit for Russell Mann to come check out the International Village.
Good chat with my buddy Anthony who is currently in Brazil.
We had a scare at the bus today. Everyone got off except for our two! Turns out Penelope got hit in the face with a ball and got a bloody nose. The teachers decided it was better for us to come get them because they weren’t sure how badly it was going to keep one bleeding. She was fine when we go there.
Ate at the Buford Highway Farmers Market with PE.
After we ate, we got some mango ice cream. Great marketing!
Renae at the church printed the newsletter. I added stamps to about thirty and stuffed all the envelopes. Went to the Post Office to get them in the mail stream.
To the Mission to help the kids with their homework. They still have a lot to do for tomorrow.
Coordinated with one of my Mom’s physical therapists.
Keep going.
I’ve enjoyed this Unedo app.

Talked with the fact checker at Texas Monthly about the NoZe Brotherhood article coming out in October.
Confirmed my annual physical appointment for Friday.
OYB!
I ordered a new foam topper for my bed. They last maybe five years. I’ve had mine seventeen.
Español!
I ordered a pole that I can hang a hummingbird feeder on. I’ll put it in front of where I sit in the mornings. There was a time when I would have hummingbirds flying all around me. Just a handful now.
Had a fun chat with my buddy Anthony. He always cracks me up.
Ordered groceries.
Gorgeous weather.
K and I picked up the girls and took them to Cici’s Pizza/Bobby’s Cheeseburgers. Then on Safari to Dick’s sporting goods. They liked the cheer stuff.
Flexible!

Helped the kids at the Mission.
One of the kids was studying about black light. He didn’t know what it was.
Picked up groceries.
Push harder.

Got this message from our neighborhood watch. I like it.
I downloaded a new language app called Unedo. It has puzzles in Spanish plus articles about Latino heritage. After you’ve listened and read the article they have questions on what you’ve learned. It’s pretty hard. What I need.
We got a big box last night from Vietnam: Nana’s new vanity! I also received a smaller box which was a table for her refrigerator. I built the table and put the fridge on it.
Then I opened the big box and sorted all the pieces. Took me twenty minutes. Hundreds of screws!
SO GLAD that I had Jessi to help. She’s great with complicated instructions. Even with her help, it took about four hours to put it together.
Great to see it coming together!
Love you, Jessi!
I’ll come in third place this week.
