I was wondering what other hobbies you enjoy during your free time.
I knit, shoot handguns, do some mixed media art journaling, cook and play with my cats.

    I read, take pictures and scrapbook...I work full time and go to school part time, so I don't have much time for hobbies anymore :*(

    I love reading, esp vampire type novels! (Maybe kinda lame but I LOVE it!) I like doing crafty stuff--working on a scrapbook, beading necklaces, re-doing my junky furniture, just making stuff and getting a little creative in general. I like gardening--well I like pretty things to grow in my yard but I sometimes fail to put forth the needed effort! I really enjoying cooking (although I'm having to rethink my approach there). I really enjoy good tv and movies. And I love traveling--nice long trips, short day trips, far away places and near places I haven't seen before. I'm just an enjoyer of good times, with friends and family, new and old. :)

    I use to crochet toys for baby cousins. I don't do it anymore since they've all grown up. Nowadays I refashion clothes, play the piano and guitar. I like to cycle a lot with my sketchbook and DSLR camera to visit new areas and go to art galleries.

    I love to read. Some weeks I read around 1,000 pages. I have a little Shi-tzu, her name is Abby Buttercup.
    She is an absolute joy' I'm just getting back into playing the piano and singing. I love
    music, I use to Dj a little. I'm trying to set up my DJ program now with a new data base of music.
    My other major time involvement is attending a Greek Orthodox Church. I am to have my
    Chrismation on June 12th, Pentecost Sunday. I live 52 miles from the church I attend. I am disabled and retired.

    I love to scrapbook and read. It helps to clear my mind. Other than that not too much free time.

    Those are awesome. You could probably sell them at consignment stores for children's clothing. (Side business).

    I have only been shooting for about 2 years, and I love it! It is a great stress reliever and you would be surprised how many women shoot for sport. I don't hunt and did not grow up around hunters/guns and if you said to me 2 years ago I would own 3 guns and love shooting, I would have said you are crazy. I just tried it, loved it and even joined a competitive shooting league.

    Who has time for hobbies these days... between MFP calorie counting, keeping up with the blogs and message boards and then oh yeah the exercising.... I have no time.


    .......and I forgot to add in my two girls and all their extra activities like girl scouts and ballet, the two dogs and three cats and last but not least the husband - we enjoy a little saucy and spicy hobby :blushing:

    Cycling my bike round the park with the sun shining and my ipod blaring.

    I'm trying to get in to some martial arts now as well. There's nothing like walking down the street knowing you could defend yourself if you had to. Going to a self defence class tonight actually. Bring it on :)
