Hodgepodge Questions-Volume 620
Birthday party, beach party, cocktail party, dinner party, charity fundraiser, surprise party, costume party, garden party, Christmas party, reunion...what's your favorite kind of party? I am up for all but those I crossed out. I can't take much sun anymore, I rarely have a drink, and I don't care to dress up in a costume. I am up for any of the others!!
2. Cheese, wine, and balsamic vinegar all improve with age. What would you personally add to the list? Friendships, and ME perhaps!! LOL
3. How do you feel about your birthday? How do you want to be celebrated? Or don't you? Birthdays (mine included) should be celebrated and celebrated well! Just a card or an acknowledgement works for me these days. I wouldn't say no to cake and ice cream!! 🎂🍦 Joe always celebrated me well, and I miss that (and him)!! Just a note that my son, Jeff, will be here for my birthday this year!! Yippee!!
4. What remarkable feat, interesting piece of trivia, or historical event occurred on your birth day and month? Not necessarily your same birth year, just the same date/month.
On December 11th, Indiana became a U.S. state in 1816; Martin Luther King Jr. accepted the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964; and the first transatlantic radio signal was transmitted in 1901. I share my day with actress Rita Moreno and (according to AI) many other famous people whom I've never heard of.
5. Share two good things about your life right now. Just two? I'm thinking of wonderful family and friends, as well as my health.
6. Insert your own random thought here. I've been enjoying a detective show on PBS called Professor T. He teaches criminology at a university and consults with the police on murder investigations, but it is mostly about relationships between the characters, and is well done.
Jeremiah 1:5 states, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you," while Psalm 139:13 says, "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb". These verses emphasize God's intimate knowledge of individuals before their birth and His intentional, personal involvement in their creation.
