With social distancing and quarantining many people have taken up hobbies. So what hobby or hobbies have you taken up during COVID?
I’ll get this started.
I have taken up hatchet throwing. I even built a heavy duty target board, just completed it last night.
Otherwise not too many new hobbies but been catching up on a lot of stuff. Been doing tool recovery, lots of minor auto repairs, fixing broke stuff around the house, and a lot more cooking. I’d like to see some of y’alls hobbies as possible options for me to investigate.

    I accidentally domesticated a squirrel. Now I am responsible for his wellbeing.

    This is the best! ❤️

    Nothing crazy.

    But I had balayage blonde hair for the longest time and then during lockdown I went in and put more blonde in it- it’s mostly blonde now. The health of my hair is really important to me that’s why I never went full in with the bleaching. I hate the look of dried out, over processed, crispy blonde hair. But I’ve managed to keep it looking shiny and healthy so far because I been obsessed with making my own concoctions of hair masks, and finding oils to maintain it. Right now I’m using grape- seed oil on my ends.

    I don't really know what to call them 😆 just trying to be creative using pieces of beach wood I picked up and leftover yarn.

    All I'm saying is - do not offer a squirrel some cereal on a whim if you aren't prepared to buy him a picnic bench, deal with him staring into your soul through the windows, invest heavily in organic unsalted peanuts, and make daily IG updates about him for his 6-12 year lifespan which you did not know about when you originally offered him cereal. Its a full time thing.

    i want him

    The real life equivalent to the book series "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie". :lol:

    Real talk: I haven't been using this time wisely. Working, eating and sleeping seems to be my current hobbies. 😳

    No time like the present!

    Nothing too wild. I feel like I've been making the most out of the solitude.

    - Playing Hide & Seek with the vacuum attachments
    - Writing long-winded, irate reviews on Amazon under the pseudonym Gloria Hallelujah
    - Starting a support group on Zoom for depressed goldfish owners
    - Having staring contests with the liquor cabinet until one of us budges

    Actually, I have taken up the old bartending bug I use to have and making different coattail's.

    Well, they are beautiful and they remind me of native American works. Are they?

    That is really nice! I did paint a few shells a few years ago I found on the beach. Maybe I'll revisit that and get more creative.

    That is amazing. I don't think I could manage that.
