I read.....I parent......I love to travel but with prices nowadays
that's a dwindling hobby! Also a big music fan and try to keep up with
new bands, both reading about them and listening to them live ort on
CD. I trade tapes & CDs of live shows, and I download music.
I have a brown thumb and don't garden (except for my herbs, which are
self-sufficient), I'm not artsy/crafty in the slightest and admire
those who are! and i'm not handy!
I love to cook, love to shop for cooking-related stuff (gourmet grocery
stores & farm markets; do those count as a hobby?), love to read
cooking books and magazines, spend far too much time on RFC. I love to
take long walks, to, especially with the puppy.
My daughter and my boyfriend scuba dive, and they keep trying to get me
to learn. I need to come up with the time and money to do so. I wish I
was more artistic - I like to do beadwork, and I'd love to learn to
knit/crochet, as well as other crafty stuff. But the thing I've always
wanted to learn was photography. I'd like to know how to use a real
good camera, lenses, settngs, etc, to take pics of nice landscapes,
nature stuff, etc. I took a few classes when I was a kid at summer camp
& etc, but back then it was more about darkroom skills, which don't
apply to the nice new digutals people have nowadays!!
If I had the time and money, I'd also love to sail. Again, kid summer
camp experience but as an adult, none. I've been kayaking a few times
but they get pricey to rent. Horses might come on that list as well.
And if I had the time, i'd learn more about wildflowers and wild foods.
I love those nature walks where you gather edibles and them make a
feast out of dandelions and sorrel!! Oh yeah, and I'd learn golf, too.
The kind with no windmills and pirate ships to shoot through.
So much I'd love to do - so little free time and spare money to learn
them. I look forward to my retirement in 30 years or so.....
