03/14/26 Birthday Grif.Net - More than you Want to Know
b...@grif.net
Some years ago, a friend asked me to share some details about myself with a cute ABC format floating around the ‘net. Apart from my demonstrably warped sense of humor, I really had to think about these. Here goes!
A- Age: today I celebrate finishing 78 years
B- Biggest fear: Failing health but trust God
C- Current time: 9 a.m. Central Daylight Time (I think; someone robbed me of sleep this week)
D- Drink you had last: Calli and Fortune Delight Herbal Tea blends from China
E- Every day starts with: standing up to see if legs work since my stroke a few years ago
F- Favorite songs: "How Can It Be?" (not the more popular "And Can it Be?") and “Sweet By and By”
G- Ghosts, are they real? Whole realm of higher beings in spirit world - humans are lowest of the spirit beings
H- Hometown: First 20 years in Minneapolis, Minnesota. When I got old enough (and smart enough) I left for the frozen tundra in Wisconsin
I- In love with: Teresa more than ever (she may read this and kill me if I answered honestly and said "Myself")
J- Jealous of: Those with physical strength to do their bucket list
K- Killed someone? No, but the thought crossed my mind
L- Last time you cried? Every Hallmark movie and every time I pray
M- Most Loved food: Breakfast eggs over easy and ham; Lunch a Reuben sandwich; Supper a country-fried steak and fried okra
N- Number of siblings: 2, but my older sister died in a motorcycle accident when I was 17
O- One wish: Never quit marveling at God's mercy and grace for me
P- Person you last called: With almost a year of illness, I call the clinic and pharmacy more than anyone
Q- Question you're always asked: What is it like to be tall?
R- Reason to smile: love humor, but overall, Jesus knows me, this I love
S- Song last sung: “O the Deep, Deep Love of Jesus”
T- Time you woke up: Who cares? A little later now that I’m retired
U- Underwear color: Navy with red piping boxer briefs
V- Vacation destination: retired, so time and cost not an issue, but strength/energy about gone, so goals will go unreached
W- Worst habit: Forgetting my partials and then afraid to smile (and scare the children)
X- Rays you've had: Too many to count. Leg, foot, both arms for fractures, head, shoulder
Y- Your favorite foods: Only all-American foods like Pizza, Cheese Enchiladas, Egg Rolls, Gyros, and Gelato
Z- Zodiac sign: that’s pagan nonsense (but I'm a fish)

Continue steadfastly in prayer with thanksgiving.
