Biking is my hobby! I agree . . . where does everyone find the time?
When I retire, these will be my hobbies as they were before marriage, work, children:
Photography
Drawing
Reading
Writing
Tennis (Oh, how I miss Tennis)

of course, cycling, both road and mtn
working out

being a "soccer mom"
baking

I like to photograph interesting cloud formations as well as landscapes. I am also a doggie rescuer and transporter.
reading, writing, history(sorta goes with the previous ;) ), and 'puters (hey that sound like work!
Very cool to read what everyone does!
My latest obsession is wire wrapping. This one is called 'The Way the Winds Blew on Wednesday' after my bf went riding and was complaining that no matter how he turned, he was always riding into a headwind! The stone is Rainforest Jasper:D

I started wrapping because another hobby is being a rockhound and doing lapidary. This is an Ocean Jasper cabochon I did:

I also love to spin, knit (working on Mermaid fingerless gloves), dye fibers and yarn, sew, grow heirloom tomatoes, and play competitive tennis.
Ha, in my local cycling club, my girlfriend have just started a Cycling/Knitting club! Once a month, we meet at a local coffee shoip with our knitting projects and talk bikes. So much fun!
Alpacas are cool. Talking of fiber bearing animals, after my dear doggy has lived his lifespan I'm planning on getting a house bunny: a French or German angora. :D
Cool!
Mine:
Weaving
Rock hunting
Knitting, crocheting
Ha! I used to be like that, but I changed my life around to be more in balance. I still work full time, but from home and very flexible hours. I had enough of fitting life around other people's schedules!Quote:

Brandi, you have found the secret and followed you heart--a rare and courageous act, indeed. I love seeing photos of your work and hearing about your travels. Any news on where you might go in South Carolina?Quote:

what's the story behind your new pic?????

My hobbies are the following:
crochet, cycling, hiking, team estrogen visits, cyclingnews visits, reading, working in the yard, mowing grass, and most importantly being with the family. When I am not at work, there is always something I could be doing. There just are not enough hours in the day for everything I like to do.
Red Rock
Other than the bike, I enjoy:
-reading
-yoga (I just started a few weeks ago, I have a love/hate relationship with it, LOL)
-cooking (I am turning it into a career, hopefully I just started culinary school this semester! I am so excited!!)
-music (listening and making it, I play four different instruments, and my husband is an amazing guitarist)
I used to do cross stitching. I loved it. Don't remember why I stopped. Hmmm...
It's my new look ;)Quote:

So much for taking it easy as a rehab sport.
I have a lovely lop earred House Bunny named Percy, 2 cats (down from 3) and many fish.
I can commit mass murder with my cooking so I refrain.
Oh and jujutsu and boxing too.
what wonderful photos, such cute dolls!

Getting ready to do fall and Halloween cookies soon :D.
Other hobbies include reading, collecting books I had as a child, counted cross-stitch, refinishing thrift shop furniture finds. Oh, and cycling.
Wow, five one, your cookies are BEAUTIFUL and amazing!!! You should definitely start a business -- you really should start a business; you'd do well! I am very impressed!
No kiddin'! They're practically too pretty to eat. ;)
Thanks :D.
At the moment, they are too time consuming to make more than just seasonally for family and friends. But it helps me to do something somewhat artistic when my daily grind job is so... not. One of my daughter's grad school friends thinks I should get this future business off the ground by sending a sampler to Oprah. Maybe someday. I don't think I'm quite ready to live up to my sig line.
