GTKY: What other interests do you have these days?

bornmommy · June 2013

Between full time work and then DS when I get home, there isn't time for much but I do still love taking walks with my pups, my wine, and making lists. (Yeah. I said making lists. It makes me feel in control and soothes me. Wink )

You can't get away from me bornmommy! :Cue evil laugh:

Running is my new interest. I can't get enough of it. I tend to go after LO is in bed, that way DH can be around if she needs anything.

Sleep. I'm interested in sleep. I plan to begin a long term study in the near future, although the timeframe in which to complete the study needs to be extended.

LOL!! Translation: I REALLY want to sleep in, but DD won't let me.

Right now I am into photography. I am a novice with a nice camera. I still have a lot to learn. I like to travel, but with two kids that is limited. Normally I enjoy a glass of wine after the kids are asleep, but right now I'm more into a fun cocktail!

bornmommy - your siggy is great!

michyme - how did you like the new Dan Brown book? I have read most of his others and enjoy them. I didn't know he came out with a new one.

I also love to read and now that it is summer we just spend a lot of time outside hanging out with family and friends.

I love to read and bake, neither or which I do anymore due to my full time job and my 2 kiddos.

I would love to be able to exercise again! I just don't ever seem to have the time.

I've started getting into photography and I've started running/working out. I go for a run in the morning before DS gets up and while DH is getting ready for work. I go to a weight training class on M and W for 45 mins.

haha I love making lists too. In fact, just made 3 today!
Anyway, I love reading. Just finished the new Dan Brown book, and can't wait to start another book this weekend.
I also love watching tv once the kiddo goes to bed. All my shows are pretty much done until the fall, but currently love watching Masterchef, and am counting down for Breaking Bad and Big Brother to start! MH is trying to convince me to watch GoT so might start that series this weekend...
Big Brother!!! I can't wait.
I feel so boring now because I can't even think of a hobby that I do anymore. I do look forward to my wine at night. I excercise daily but if I dread it more than enjoy it does that count? I used to love running but can no longer enjoy that activity due to peeing my pants every time.
So that leaves me with drinking lots of wine while watching Big Brother. Don't judge my life! Ha!

I've never tried this but I heard this works, that before you go running if you insert a tampon it keeps you from leaking pee, something about it helping position things. I don't know why it would work but I've heard it from several older women who run, who said after they gave birth running wasn't so fun until they found out that tip.

As for me I like to sew so I'm working on Reddy's halloween costume, he is going to be Russell from Up. I have the yellow shirt and have been making the sash with the badges. I also belong to a charity quilting group so I go to that once a month. DH has a friend who lives near the group (which is about an hour away) so he takes LO to visit the friend while I quilt, it's a nice chance to get some quilting done and catch up with those friends

I also just got back into making instructables, which is a website where you upload instructions on how to make stuff. They are always having contests and I enjoy the baking/cooking ones. Here's my latest one for the Chinese food contest.
