What's your hobby?

FirstTyMom · May 2011

We just moved to a new city a few months ago, so I'm still trying to meet other moms and make friends. We go to playdates, the gym, library time, etc. all throughout the week. I'm looking to start a hobby that I can do without DH and DS (I'm starting to feel like the nanny- DH plays tennis, goes to car meets, etc.!)

So, I'm looking for suggestions - what do you like to do on your own time?

I like to embroider and make jewelry

JOEBunny · May 2011

I have a book club, a theater group, a playgroup ladies (and SAHDs) night, and I sew. Those are my main hobbies.

I used to draw a lot. Charcoal and colored pencils mainly. After that it was cake decorating. Took some classes at JoAnn's. Then went to knitting, but that was short lived. Now I'm looking for a new one. I'm leaning towards beading/jewelry making or something like that.

As soon as the kids are all in school, I'm taking up drawing and cakes again.

I like yoga. I had in my last yoga studio a group of ladies and we would do coffee after class and just hang out in general. Also your local parks should host free hikes here and there or there should be a hiking club if you think you'd be interested. Not only is that a good way to meet people it is a good family activity.

MrsRoy07 · May 2011

I scrapbook and make cards, I'm (slowly) learning to crochet, and I go through jewelry making phases. My favorite thing to do is scrapbook.

HarrietNJMommy · May 2011

Knitting and sewing (including machine embroidery).

bim38106 · May 2011

reading (book club), cooking, photography.

Have you looked into mom's groups where you are? I see it says you're in Switzerland, but I'm sure there are groups there like there are here My mom's group offers evening mom-only activities once a week and it makes a world of a difference to my mental health to be able to get out regularly w/out the kids!

memali26 · May 2011

I read and I used to scrapbook before DD came along. I really, really want to get back to it, I have all the supplies and everything, just don't have the space and time right now. Hopefully once we move to a bigger place I can set up my table and be more motivated to make time for it.

DevonPow · May 2011

The gym is my main hobby. Also I do volunteer work, am on the board of my MOMS Club, am in a book club, etc.

jazmynalex · May 2011

I crochet and do photography, but I need to find something else because I'm getting to *that point* where its getting old lol.

Alexandra*sMom · May 2011

I like to sew, but since it has gotten nice, running.

gatogrrl · May 2011

I read, write, and play the guitar. DD especially likes to join in on the guitar.

JenWhite123 · May 2011

I love to read - I will go to a coffee shop by myself and sit and read.

I also love to cook, bake and workout. I also enjoy time alone either at our neighborhood pool or at the beach

BabyH2010 · May 2011

Drinking.

Hehe. Just kidding. Sorta

I have a blog - like everyone - that is all DS, all the time. So there's that. But hobbies? Hmmm... I guess I gave those up when DS was born.

Now I has a sad.

Liz342 · May 2011

Baking. I love it!

Also, crafty-type things. I used to scrapbook but pretty much gave it up when I had DD since it took me a year to complete my first, and only scrapbook. I got into making felt flowers and made a cool yarn wreath with them. I've also made things like birthday banners for the LOs.

JennaHope · May 2011

Cross stitch

supermom83 · May 2011

My new favorite hobby is refinishing furniture! I love to sand, prime and paint old peices of furniture and bring them back to life. I never thought I would enjoy it so much but the end sense of accomplishment is indescribable! I love it. I also enjoy going to flee markets, salvation army and such and finding these little beaten CHEAP bookcases, dressers or chairs and then turning them into something beautiful and useful for the house!

MaxandRuby · May 2011

I do genealogy and ballroom dance.

WhitePicketFence · May 2011

I love to read. Otherwise, I don't really have any hobbies. I need to work on this.

MrsKatie07 · May 2011

I love going to yard sales and antique shops and decorating my house with what I find. I refinish some things. I also love photography (I'm trying to get better and learn more), gardening and entertaining. I want to get more into Zumba after I have the baby since I started right before I got pregnant and didn't get very good at it. I think during the winter I'll try to teach myself to play the guitar. Sounds like a lot of hobbies, but I have to stay busy or I start feeling pretty depressed.

LOL! That's it....I'll start building my tolerance - back to pre-baby weight class ;-)
