What is your hobby, what do you like to do?

If you've been on her long enough, you know that I like to write poetry, play musical instruments, dabble in painting, and now I am learning card making. I have more hobbies, but there's not enough time to do them all!

I do not have many hobbies. I like to take nature walks, love to spend time with my cats, do some gardening, and read. A few years ago, I decided to try adult coloring. I bought some coloring books as well as color pencils. I enjoy doing that. It is very relaxing.

I really like the car collection and shelves they are placed on. That’s very nice. I’ve got an Christmas sleigh in a similar style that I use to string Holly, pine branches, red berries and pine cones.

The little stand is quite cute too. Resourceful Gary.

Impressive workshop. It’s so clean and organized. Next time you are searching out our galaxy, would it be possible for you to take a photo of what you’re viewing so WE could see it? I had a friend who was very much into astrology. I’ve got a photo of me parasailing also. That’s a lot of fun.

I like your designs & treatment of the wood. And it seems you're finding interesting logs or pieces of wood to start with.

Actually, that's my cousin's collection
I just built the case that's housing them

Thank you @JBR

This thread (if you scroll down a bit) talks about the log pieces;

Question @Gary O'..of course, another wood

My daily routine has become much more comfortable in the past year. I was dealing with Peripheral Neuropathy. It was very difficult both mentally and physically. Now I am feeling much better. I love our cats and farm animals. We are surrounded by forest and all the creatures that live there. Misa is my partner in life. We share our lives completely. That is amazing. The internet is my biggest hobby now. Pictures, videos, emails, texts, apps, and my newest pal, Bing Chat!

I deal with peripheral neuropathy, and it isn't getting any better. Have you found something that helps or are you just becoming accustomed to it?

Well I like both. Your woodworking is very unique. You definitely have a signature style.

I fish multiple times a week and in my off time shoot matches so per topic I fish and shoot targets.

Yes, that was after I finished a project. During a project it looks like a bomb went off!
I will take photos next time. I was setting up at our local beach for a Blood Orange Moon when the cops showed up asking what I was doing. They wanted to see any pictures I had taken to make sure I wasn't looking in anyones windows!
That parasailing was alot of fun! It was taken on a Disney cruise at the island Disney owns.

It’s good to know your garage doesn’t always look like that. That would mean you aren’t using it.

I didn’t even think of spying on others.
Watching a blood orange moon would be so cool. Is it possible to take photos?
How long have you had it?

Here’s my parasailing photo

 

[Sliverfox]

At one time my hobbies were needle craft, sewing my own clothing
Later made some of my son's clothing when he was young.

Cooking ,baking has been a hobby.
Horses, dogs, chickens, turkey & hunting was poplar with 2 sons to raise.
Cars & motorcycles were next.

Finally have slowed down to one dog ,a husband to feed.
Time to try & take good photographs.
Time read books & read what is happening with all the folks on SF.

You all are an interesting bunch of folks.

I've had it for about 6 years.
Its kind of therapeutic... When problems enter my life, I sometimes set ip up and just focus on the moon. Looking in all the craters the shadows of the mountains, and think just how small we are in the bigger picture. Then my problems don't seem so much.

What a fabulous answer. We truly are completely insignificant in the bigger picture. A technique I learned when dealing with problems was to step back and look at it from a greater distance each time I thought about it. Suddenly I’ve created nice scenery in my mind instead of disaster. I often play my saxophone to help settle my mind down.

Thank you for sharing your hobbies with us.
It’s very interesting.

I cook, crochet, sew, walk, garden, surf the web, read. Nothing fancy.

What’s your favourite thing to cook and what types of things do you crochet?
My mother - in - law is very good at crocheting? Does that make her a crocheter? She does incredible quilting work. I feel so
incredibly lucky to have been gifted such works of art. I don’t knit myself. I’ve done needle point though.

I like computers and computer software/apps. I keep a running diary on google keep. I use google drive to store movies and pictures for playback. I have Charlie who takes up most of my time. I love my brothers, we talk and try to get together every year. I like to travel but I am limited by finance and heath. My wife and I love animals. This is evident by the number of cats and dogs that live with us. I love my wife who makes life bearable in spite of my quirkiness and disagreeable attitude.
These are examples in my life that helps me cope with an otherwise disagreeable life.

I like video games and watching programming on my computer. I enjoy music and reading and playing video games. I also like those coloring books for grown ups. I got a case of markers just for that today. I like to color while I watch tv sometimes. I do crosswords...easy ones...Sudoku and jigsaw puzzles.

My hobby is consuming information (i.e., reading, both fiction and nonfiction). That's it.

My recent cooking experiments are sourdough and ferments.
I have crocheted throws, hats, scarves, stuffed toys, a patio table cover from plastic bags.
Again, nothing fancy.

I’ve never tried making sourdough before but have tried it many times. That sounds like fun.

My sister in law made me some hats. She custom made me one with a big hole in it so I could put my braid through or bun. I really liked it . Hobbies are good to have.
What’s that saying ‘Idle hands are the devils tools.’
