What do you do...

What do you do...

to keep busy?

Extra-curricular activities?
Volunteer work?
Clubs?
Sports/teams you actually play(on)?

Not just 'hobbies' or 'interests (like reading, scrapbooks, shopping, etc...)

And no one say: 'I HAVE NO TIME FOR ANYTHING BUT SLEEPING, EATING AND WORKING!'

Re: What do you do...

I'd actually love to do something , I'm just not sure what. I would love maybe a sewing class or a knitting class.

Re: What do you do...

I don't have much free time. After work I try to go to the gym, then I go home, eat with DH, then do homework, and usually take a break to watch some TV. I go to school full time while working full time, so I have a lot of homework once I get home. DH plays on a baseball team, so I watch him on the weekends, and like hanging out with my family and friends and shopping...Lately I've been finally decorating our place more, and reading for fun, which I hadn't gotten a chance to do lately. That's about it. I went in spurts when I knit/crocheted, and baked...

Me too! I've been trying to figure this out for a while. I may take a Pilates class at Forest Hills HS in their adult education thing but it's still not what I'm looking for.

Honestly, I don't do anything to
keep buys' work, , commuting, family & social obligations & household chores keep me plenty busy.

I am starting a Yoga class through the local adult ed program in a few weeks. I have to leave work at 5 to make it, but I need to do something physical & hopefully relaxing.


ETA-- I also don't think something needs to be an organized axctivity to be an actvivity. I crochet on my own & DH & I hike when we can & I am trying to find time to re-learn to drive.

I don't know if this counts, but I'm obsessed with vacations. So I spend a lot of my free time looking into different trips I would like to take. It's kind of lame, but I enjoy it- even though it can be torture sometimes.

I do home improvement projects mostly. Right now I'm working on sealing and painting our garage walls & floor. I know - not terribly exciting but it will look good when it is done. I installed two bathroom ventilation fans last year that I'm really happy about.

Apart from that, I like to cook all our dinners during the week so that takes up some time. I grew some lovely tomatos this summer.

Oh yeah, I'm on the board of a non-profit which is great but luckily doesn't take up a ton of time. Just a conference call every other month and meetings a couple of times a year.

I read and watch movie, but sometimes I get bored w/ that I need to find another hobby too.

Re: What do you do...

I take aerobics classes at the gym.
I also like reading, but that is usually before bed.
Graphic design is one of my hobbies, but I don't have that many occasions to do it. I wish I could do freelance work, though.

Photography. DH and I want to start a 'side' photography business next year.

We also belong to a couple of hiking clubs, although we don't get out as much as we would like.
