Babies on the Brain

Since it's slow...

What (if any) hobbies do you have?  What (besides the bump) do you spend non-working, non-child-rearing, non-ttcing, YOU time doing?

I am the queen of too many hobbies.  I scrapbook, knit, crochet, & paint.  I tried my hand at sewing but suck at it for whatever reason (I blame my ancient sewing machine) so I decided to put that on the back-burner for now. 

Re: Since it's slow...

  • I bake/cook/can summer fruits and veggies, play with power tools, and love doing DIY projects (everything from crafty stuff to actual home renovations).

    I read a lot, too.

  • Photography is the main one now (no business or anything like that, just learning how to take better pictures of C)

    Music - piano, guitar, voice (I was a music major in college for my undergrad degree)

    House decorating/renovating - we moved last year and had some large renovations to do. We are still working on them. This hobby would be much more fun if I had endless amounts of money!

  • Just getting into photography.

  • I knit, make stuff with polymer clay (cake toppers etc), I play video games, and I make jewelry.  I used to run a lot, but I haven't lately, I need to get back into that.

    I'm sorry- I'm not familiar with what this means. ;)

     

    Finding a me-time hobby is actually one of my NY's resolutions. In the minimal amount of time I have not doing any of the above, I usually just veg out on the net or in front of the tv. I think for my upcoming b-day I'm going to ask for a Cricut play around with that. I'd also like to get into some DIY furniture things. There are some shelves on anawhite.com that I'm dying to make.

  • I used to do alot of crafty things like make picture frames and scrapbook (I sucked at that) but now I mostly just read. I'd really like to get a dslr and get into photography so that I can get better pictures of the kids but I'm not great at figuring out electronics.

  • I scrapbook (mostly digital now).

    And since I got like six new books (about midwifery) for Christmas, I am going to have to revive my hobby of reading.

  • dog training. I'm a super dog nerd. I compete with the border collie in sheep dog trials. 

     

    I would love to do crafty sh!t again, but I'm lazy. :P  

  • I hike, backpack, camp, torture my dogs,"work" (they don't pay me, I just go over there for experience and something to do) at the angus ranch just outside of town, play video games, write (well I guess that probably isn't a hobby so much as my piddly source of income right now), and countless other things that I can't think of right now.

    And yes I am a sahw- what made you think that? 

    Fuuck TTC - I'm moving on.
