What's Your Hobbies?



Recommended Posts

I'm not a crafty person, dont have the patience and generally dont like the results either, lol, not into country style decorating, patchwork etc etc. Give me a stark, minimalist modern interior any day.

Although I did have quite a successful business sewing cloth diapers for a while there, and enjoyed it thoroughly.

But overall, my hobbies would have to be running, the computer and filling my pandora Bracelet. Nearly done, am going to have to start another bracelet soon!

I have done just about everything as far as creative hobbies. I don't have much time, but I do manage to organic garden, and because I have to cook anyway, I do gourmet cooking. Right now I am making jewlery.

Hello All,

My hobby is raising these adorable furbabies. I have owned 7 of these babies myself. I lost one back in 2004, and one this past September. My baby is the chocolate colored one. Her name is PJ. I keep only two of them in the house. PJ and Jellybean. (The two together in the chair). I love newborn shih tzu babies!

I was enrolled in college until I graduated this past quarter!:whoo:I finally got my associates degree in supervisory management. I don't know what I'll be doing with all my free time now!

Animal Rescue

I do animal rescue. I have been in rescue for about 7 yrs. The group I work with is great. We take dogs/cats from hig-kill shelters and some owner surrenders that would other wise be put to sleep. We have them completley vetted- Spayed/neutered, vaccinated etc, and they stay in our homes until they are adopted out the their forever home.

I have seen some VERY terrible things in this line of "hobby"

It is pretty much a ful time job with no pay...however no monetary amount could out weigh the joy of knowing that the pets we save are now in loving forever homes and not left alone to die in a shelter or worse.

We are a small group so we cant pf course save them all and we are non profit so work on donation alone..

I have to admit that its a very expensive hobby....alot of our personal money goes into helping these babies and feeding them..but its worth it.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
