Coyote alert in our neighborhood.

Vocab!

OYB!

Beautiful weather.

Got groceries last night. The bananas were hiding under my seat.

Español!

Walked 1.62 miles.

Mileage.

Had a good lunch with my Pastor John Weldon.

K came with me today. She’s still having a hard time getting around. Pretty much uses the walker all the time.

Helped the kids at the mission. We enjoyed a Bible story together and had a prayer time.

She was wearing her Nana t-shirt. That’s what we call my Mom.

The kids liked the books.

Love my girls.

Looking forward to my team coming this weekend.

Checked the mail.

Tim A. Cummins @ 11:01 pm  

Came in #1 out of thirty people.

I liked this from Eric Barker’s blog.

Had a great talk with Pastor Bill Cordrey. He’s always a blessing to me.

Español!

Hiked 2.20 miles.

Ordered groceries.

Made J some sandwiches.

Kathy is still using the walker. She came with me to Chamblee today. We picked up the girls and took them to Taco Veloz.

Helped the kids at the mission. I was glad K was able to help Penelope.

I’m helping one of my middle schoolers learn about basic geometry. It’s pretty intimidating. Not for me, of course.

I look forward to this.

Went by my office to check the mail.

Picked up groceries.

Looks like a serious group.

Westside! Español! Podcast! 2.4.24

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:09 pm  

OYB!

Español!

Colder, windy and turned wet.

K and I went to Westside BC this morning. Hard for her to get around but she did pretty well with her walker.

Pastor Devin spoke on the international nature of the Gospel. I’ve been practicing translating in my head what the pastor is saying into Spanish.

I got two new Spanish versions of the Bible to check out.

I also enjoy looking of the derivations of words.

Also looked up some words in Spanish.

After church we ate at El Guero next to Publix. I also picked up some meds for J.

Released a new episode of Verbal Surgery called, “Physical Magic.” Excellent!

Hard to be humble when you’re #1.

I downloaded two Bibles in Spanish this morning. The NIV and the Bible of the Americas.

Got a message from NASA that said I could see the ISS fly by this evening.

OYB!

Beautiful weather!

Kathy has been helping me write thank you notes. Amen.

Walked 1.71 miles.

Deposited checks. Thank you, Father!

Downloaded Outlive. It’s supposed to be really good.

Listened to Don Cheto while I was playing Borderlands 3.

No one ever catches 4,000 points.

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:54 pm  

Bad news out of Nairobi.

Cleaned the fan in my bedroom. The wet/dry vac did a great job.

OYB!

Español! Listened to Don Cheto and studied a vocabulary word.

Absolutely gorgeous weather today.

Picked up Thai food.

Heard from Pedro today. He was in my original youth group.

I’m looking into getting some cedar shiplap to repair a couple of small areas by my deck.

Did my laundry.

The more time I spend the more I learn. Period. These leagues motivate me to spend more time.

Yard! Gymnastics! Mission! 2.1.24

Tim A. Cummins @ 11:44 pm  

OYB!

Español!

Blew the deck.

Walked 2.56 miles. Eighteen hills.

Took my carnivores back outside. Not supposed to freeze for a while.

My new bird feeder came in today. Amen. A big branch fell and crushed the last one.

Cleaned the bird baths and bowl.

Raked and swept the carpet outside my door.

Cleaned and organized the St. Francis shrine.

This looks pretty good to me. Clean water. Suet. High quality bird seed.

Reset all my spin wheels. These point towards the cardinals.

Rehung one of my mobiles. I tie a rubber band on the wire and it doesn’t slide down.

I need to focus on these conjugations. I hear them all the time. Someone says or said something.

Worked with the kids at the mission. Took a break and went to see Penelope and Everly for gymnastics class.

Cleaned out the area behind the mission. The kids helped me take the stuff to the dumpster. Even now I think I should have kept that table.

Now I’m teaching people this kind of stuff.

Ordered a new external power brick. Mine are starting to fail, taking forever to charge.

Sunset!

Checked the mail at my office.

Indefatigable.

Newsletter! Stamps! Azalea! 1.29.24

Tim A. Cummins @ 9:21 pm  

OYB

Took a couple of hygiene things to UPS to send back to Amazon.

Came in third place last week.


Duolingo had a maintenance break. Listened to Don Cheto instead. Measured how long it takes me to walk up and down my hill one time.

Walked 1.31 miles.

Cool, beautiful weather.

Good chat with my Mom.

Let our church secretary know my letters were ready to print.

Went to Publix to drop off a prescription. She told me it was too soon to do it. I don’t think she read the prescription correctly.

Post Office for stamps. Sadly, the machine could only print the single stamps that are way harder to use.

Picked up the grandgirls and helped the kids at the mission.

Went to my office to check the mail, pick up the newsletters, stamp and stuff them.

Also wrote some thank you notes.

OYB!

Español!

Walked 1.08 miles.

Released Verbal Surgery “Every HIll’s A Victory.” TASTY!

Produced my newsletter.

I have the newsletter written, produced, labels on the envelope, return envelope and the tax letters for our donors complete. I still need to get stamps. I’ll take the newsletter to get copied tomorrow afternoon. I should be able to have them in the mail tomorrow. Amen.

Went to the US Post, but the stamp machine wasn’t working. At least according to the note.

Listened to Don Cheto. Sometimes I’m really getting a lot. My ear seems like it’s picking out words better. I’m thinking now that that might be thanks to using my ear buds rather than listening through car speakers.

I’ll come in the top three again this week.
