What are your passions/hobbies?

AOBtahoe · August 2013

I'm in a rut and looking for something to take up or learn that'll get me some child-free time once a week or so. So, ladies, what're you into that I should try?

Crochet. Scrapbooking.

I enjoy reading and astronomy. The colloege I attend has stargazing parties occasionally that I could attend. They would let you look through their telescopes or teach you how to use yours.

Photography and baking

I used to knit a lot and loved it
I also used to run a lot, what about training for a doable event like a 5K or a triathalon?

ellcore · August 2013

Oh! I forgot home improvement is considered a hobby! Give me she power tools and I can make or fix anything.

I'm a scrap booking nut. I also love to ski.....but kind of need it to be winter to do that., I'd love to learn to knit. My MIL is going to teach me.

Bodybuilding. Although it's tough when you can only devote 1 day/week to this.

Cbeanz · August 2013

Woodworking - although the initial investment is a barrier if you don't already have tools.

I love astronomy. Took a lot in college!

Also when I had more time I really had fun learning sign language for babies. I'd love to learn to really sign ASL!

I am pretty crafty I used to make all my own jewelry, scrapbook, paint, a lot of diy stuff. Lately I haven't done much but I love to make and design custom invitations which I still do for every party I help plan. I guess my other hobby is party planning since I seem to have one every month. This month's party is our annual labor day pig roast!

@lady dixneuf I would have loved to take more astronomy classes in college but the school I got my BS was small and didn't have many and I do not live close to my current college so I only take classes for my degree. I love sign language. I have taken several classes, but I always forget what I learned.

scrapbooking. sewing. crocheting. reading. trivia nights.

ETA: and tap dancing! I forgot since I'm on summer break now.

Our city has a bunch of adult evening/night classes.... Dance and fitness classes. Those are the ones I am interested in taking, someday. And our community college has a wine pairing classes once a week that I want to do some day.

Or inside the home... Baking and cooking. Love it. Sewing, I also enjoy but wish my machine wasn't so shitty. I also do a little wine pairing at home. It's me, my couch, wine, and the baby monitor.

@cbeanz, what kind of stuff do you make (re:woodworking)? My dad was pretty excited when he got his own shop at the house...he invested in a few woodworking tools with the ultimate goal to build himself a rocking chair.

hamiltks10 · August 2013

Golf, hockey, triathlons, cooking/baking and Pinterest-ing. Oh, and garage sales! I love going to garage sales!

Cbeanz · August 2013

@ziegeficker little stuff - birdhouses, jewelry boxes, a shelf. Of course this was when I had access to my dad's shop. Never anything big like furniture!

ETA: My dad was a wood/metal shop teacher.

Cbeanz · August 2013

Oh what about brewing your own beer? I don't do this but I have some friends who are into it. You can get kits for it.

Heater2010 · August 2013

Sewing--anything from quilts to pillows. I used to do a lot of pj pants but they get annoying. I'm going to try to start to make doll clothes and random items useful for LO.

Scrapbooking....haven't touched that in years. Reading when I have peace and quiet (aka now never) and random crafty things.

This is my husband and his best friends hobby, I basically have a brewery in my laundry room.

I love beer and have had a couple of friends who have tried this. The overwhelming consensus (from the SOs of these friends) is that it's not worth it and smells up the house. Is it expensive to get started?

Napping! I also like to crochet though. My DH tells me I'm like an old lady when I crochet. Mean mean man.

Ziegeficker · August 2013

I don't even know how to sew...how bad is that?!?!
