Personal Hobbies and Pastimes.

Personal Character:
 
1) Quiet and shy at first. I am more shy without my glasses on because can't see people's faces clearly. They seem too far away to be part of my world, so it's hard for me to talk to a stranger that's several feet away or more if I don't have my glasses on. And I don't like to wear my glasses.
 
2) Honest. My mother says I'm too damn honest.
 
3) Very little temper. It takes a lot to get me angry. My father was very tempermental. I was tempermental until I started reading the Bible. Also, I didn't want to be loud like my father.
 
4) Family and Friends. I live with my mother. She turned 93 on Dec. 17th. She's in pretty good health for a woman her age. She can move around. She takes care of herself. She can still cook. She can't see or hear too well; she wears a hearing aid.
I have few friends except the neighbors (Millie, Marge, and Peggy) who live in the same apartment building that I do. Occasionally, we visit my older brother (Mark), his wife (Marcia), daughter (Mindy) and her husband (Benjamin), and his (Mark's) two sons (Cory and Andrew). His eldest son (Cory) just got married this year (to Kelly).
There's a neighbor in another building I'm friendly with (Mark). Another neighbor (Ken, his wife Joanne) worked on my bicycle. I sometimes say hello to one of the building maintenance guys (Jeff). The building owner (Jim) and I say hello to each other whenever we see each other. I have a long-time friend (Ron and his wife Chris, and married children (Ron, Kathy, Karen, and Ricky) whom I knew when I was in the Worldwide Church of God. I don't see him too often.
