CanyonBaby 1,852 Posted March 17, 2015 Have you ever turned to eating because it is something to do? Do you find yourself reaching for something (it used to be food) but nothing is there? Maybe it's time to re-focus your attention to something other than that bowl of chips or that latte that keeps calling your hands! Hobbies don't seem to be as popular as they once were, sad to say. I like to watch TV in the winter (not much else to do when it's dark, cold and snowy out), but when I do, I usually have something in my hands (I especially enjoy crochet and cross-stitch). They say if you don't have a hobby that you do by the time you are 40, you won't ever have one. I don't know if that's true, but it seems I see a lot of folks over that age that don't seem to have anything to do but sit there and watch that TV, unless it's eating. My husband enjoys model trains, N-scale. He loves to read. We garden and ride the Harley in the summer when he gets off work. Things to do. Fun things! Find one! (or two or three....)
