Hobbies

What hobbies do you all have? I tried to take up knitting after my daughter was born. I didn't have enough time, and finally just gave away all my knitting stuff. I want to do decoupage, but don't ever seem to have the time, still. Just wondering what you do for fun?

laughing and making others laugh

FreeCycle - love it!
Graphic T-Shirt design - I do a ton for local kids sports teams and for my kids' teams and then ones for fun or for vacation or groups.
Word Puzzles, regular puzzles

Now if I had more time/space/money I would undoubtably take on many more - which is probably a good thing I don't have more time/space although I could still use more money! :)

Can I list "contemplation" as a hobby? It really is, actually. Mine, I mean.

Doing this list makes me realise how little time I have given to these soul-refreshing activities lately. The "dailiness of life" has overtaken too much.

This is so true.  We must make a conscious effort to not let this happen. ;)b

Proper place nothing. My easel is in the dining room. Don't eat the cadmium red.

Google Reader!  Yeah, it's pathetic I know, but I have like a gazillion different feeds on it and it's always on so I'm always checking it and reading stuff and saving the really important stuff then organizing all the feeds into different and ever increasing categories then organizing all the stuff I save because it may be interesting or use it for something later.  You never do know when you'll need it.

Also I write.  I'm an aspiring novelist so I guess now it's just a hobby that is slowly producing some results.

Just in the time I wrote this two more things showed up in my Google Reader that I have to attend to....

Seconded!!

I used to have a little space on the floor of my dorm room that worked just fine for this purpose.

....my hobbies, in addition to the above ^, include:

drawing
photography
making weird mixed media art/collages
baking
inventing recipes
...other things that keep me in the kitchen
figuring out how to use the equipment I have to do things that "require" other equipment, aka MacGyvering
sewing
reading
cleaning (no, really)
jamming and using random objects as percussion instruments
VegWebbing

...I also think that contemplation, pondering, daydreaming, and fantasy planning (ie, what I'd do if I won a million dollars, etc.) are my hobbies.
