    I enjoy paper crafting which includes making cards, calendars, booklets and so much more. If the weather is bad and I can't get into the garden them this is a hobby that I enjoy.

    Cooking and baking. I like fiddling about with recipes, adding a bit of this and changing a bit of that. A day in the kitchen when it's damp or cold outside is a true pleasure!

    I knit a lot, mostly for charities. Baby hats, blankets, ponchos, scarves, etc. I love yarn of pretty much all kinds and have to have a really good excuse to buy all of the ones I like.....makes me feel less guilty about the yarn stash I have.

    I like to cook and bake, and also can. I like crafting.
    I like walking with the dog and exploring new places with him.
    I like genealogy and spending time with family.

    I enjoy scrapbooking, cooking, visiting friends, keeping track of the kids, grandkids and great-grand kids, and, of course, gardening.

    I used to do Freehand embroidery until my hands gave up. Now I write children's' fiction when the mood take me.

    During the winter, I focus on my houseplants to keep my soul happy. I also love to sew baby quilts. I sit and stare out the window into my dormant garden and dream and plan too.

    I dance. I'm a ballroom dancer. It started out as a therapy of sorts when I left my abusive ex-husband, but quickly became a passion. I seldom go a week without dancing. :D

    I am also an avid reader. I love to read and the library now has an app so I can borrow books virtually! So I always have a variety of books queued up on my phone to read, and audio books to listen to when I'm driving a lot!

    And we remain a very close family in spite of the fact that several of my kids have kids of their own, so we are always having "kinfolk get togethers" as one of the kids dubbed them. :heart:
