I was on the phone for about an hour working with Mint Mobile and Optimum internet services to try and get my Mom’s land line number transferred to her new iPhone 13 mini. Maybe it’ll work this time. They gave me a number to call in 48 hours to see if there were any errors to address.

Did my laundry. There was a lot. I worked the last eight days straight with three different teams.

I had an interview with JK Nickell who is an author and feature editor of the Texas Monthly. We had a fun conversation about the NoZe Brotherhood.

Had a great time with my team from Crosspoint Church. Their singing was especially good. It was like having ten other Mr. Tims. Incredibly intense. We had our D-Day celebration which include signing the Landing Pad.

Took them to Taco Veloz. So good.

These guys have been a lot of fun.

Plaza Fiesta is just so cool.

They’ve really done a great job with the kids.

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

Listened to Don Cheto on the way home.

Wrote the Thank You letter to Cindy Hunnicut for the team I had the last two days from Restoration Church. It includes the links to the galleries and the video. I consider the team complete when I send that email.

Every one of us has been #1 during this week.

I had a great time with my team from Bethel Church, AL today! I took them on Safari to China Town and Asian Square.

Woke up this morning to an email from Mint Mobile saying there was a problem with porting the number of my Mom’s land line to her new iPhone 13 mini. I called them and thought we had it squared away. They were supposed to send me an email hours ago with the link to the QR code to get her esim.

Great news!

Logistics. Planning for the team tomorrow. I’ll be by myself.

Unusually close.

I had an energetic group from Restoration Church in Roswell, GA. We explored the BHFM and served at Azalea Place.

I looked up some concert ticket prices. The cheapest to see Paul McCartney is $325. Wow. Black Suns is another favorite of mine. General Admission is $34. I’ll probably go see them. I think it was the most energetic show I’ve ever been to.

Still working on logistics.

Took my Mom to see Dr. Fussell. She was the surgeon who removed her gall bladder. Everything looked great! The hardest part was Nana had to walk all the way to the doctor’s office. We were expecting a wheel chair. No such luck. They found one so I could take her to the car. Nearly 800 steps in one whack!

Plans are coming together for the eye doctor visit.

K & I took the grandgirls to eat at Hot and Cold. They like to run afterwards, which I think is crazy.

Went to 5 Below to get a hair brush that Penelope would like. I have a sensitive scalp too. I understand not liking really stiff bristles.

Contacted Piedmont Hospital to set up a bone density scan for my Mom.

Steamy.

Took about an hour to set up the Patient Portal for my Mom at her new doctor’s office. Had trouble getting the email/password log ins to work. Finally did. Which is typical for me. We heard right back from the nurse when we asked a question on the portal so it was definitely worth the hassle.

I spent about an hour working with Mint Mobile and Optimum Internet to get my Mom’s iPhone 13 mini activated with a new esim with the phone number from her house in Georgetown. Sound complicated? It was. I had representatives on the phone with both companies and together we figured out how to do it. One of the problems we had was the name on the account was Al Cummins and not Peggy Cummins. Daddy had set it up a long time ago. I think it’s been squared away now.

When I finally got the jobs finished, I was able to take the girls over to the playground at Stone Mountain Park.

Strength training.

I always emphasize balance.

Keep going.
