Tennis, photography, hiking, running. Unfortunately, my back issues keep me from doing them. I’ve done various forms of needlework but they just don’t give me the same satisfaction. I'm sorry, and I so get it... My IT band flares up terribly whenever I run any distance over a mile or so. It takes days to recover to be able to walk without limping. Last time I went for my usual 5k route I decided I just needed to push through and by morning time I could barely make it to my car after work. I almost had to sit down to make it down the stairs. I wanted to cry. Lesson learned. I can still walk up to 5 miles or so without lasting effects so hiking is still ok, but it's not the effortless thing it used to be. |

Tole painting and cake decorating back in the 1990’s for me too. I used to teach cake decorating back in the day too.

1. Scrapbooking - did it for 20 years and love seeing my old albums
2. Cross stitch - still do it and have 5 really nice ones over the years, I want to try embroidery next winter
3. Reading - wish I could focus more, but when I find a good book!

I collected Wee Forest Folk, anyone heard of them? Adorable, detailed (mostly) mice figurines. Tiny but spendy. I still love them, but I only collect one about every five years or so. Many of my favorites are retired and too expensive now. I was an avid scrapbooker and stamper, and then got into photography for awhile. I collected beanie babies and after that, Haagen Renacher figurines. I started a watercolor art business so I am busy with that now. As a child, I loved and collected stickers, now I am a sticker designer, and I get to sell them. I love it! I love thrifting and enjoy garage sailing sometimes. Horses and riding has always been a huge part of my life too.
I tried resin a few days ago and immediately ordered more supplies. So that’s a new interest! I’m never bored lol.

I used to cross stitch and do some
freehand embroidery. I wouldn’t mind getting back to the latter.
Music has always been my main hobby, but how I pursue it has evolved over the years. Currently focusing on classical guitar. I would like to get back to playing piano more - that was my first instrument.
