nuke'em ttg Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Can't say FFB is a hobby anymore, all i do is work and sleep. I had 1 hour with no work, wife and kids around yesterday and it hit me, i have no interest in anything. Don't mind workin but it's been consuming and will be the rest of the year. How do you guys relax/enjoy life? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duchess Jack Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 I do a lot of writing. In the summer I am big into volleyball and camping. I also dig games of all types. I love board games, card games and video games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skilly Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 I'm kind of in the same boat. I like to read during my down time, but I'm not sure if I consider reading a hobby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you guys relax/enjoy life? Like the early Pennsylanvania Dutch, I have two: Fearing God Loving Work After those two are accomplished I like to garden/farm, read, eat robustly, hunt, a little fly fishing, lie on my back and make shapes out of clouds, watch TV, study all I can about the American legal system.

montster Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 I enjoy woodworking. If I'm feeling really lazy, I'll play video games at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt770 Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 I've felt like that part of my life has been put on hold the past few years. Really looking forward to having a new yard to landscape, and I'm going to try to build some bookcases and maybe a couple big wooden chaise lounges. If I suck at woodworking, I've always wanted to take up golf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliaz Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Guitar Painting Warhammer Models WoW But I also have a secret hobby where i like to manipulate lower level managers at work and pit them against each other. Read a book called the 48 laws of power and then once you are done start doing it at work. It's fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footballjoe Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 (edited) I have my veggie garden in the summer but that really does take up a lot of time once the planting is done. I have been giving a lot of thought to thos lately: http://www.spirainternational.com/ http://www.spirainternational.com/index.html Hope I follow through with it in the early fall.

detlef Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 A recent meniscus tear in my left knee as sort of sidelined me from some of my hobbies (cycling, and generally working out). We spend a lot of time in the garden and now have added chickens to mix. This isn't completely a hobby, because it's an extension of my job, but "studying" beer and wine, cooking, and making cocktails is something I really enjoy. I also like building things. Our chicken coop, raised beds, my desk, our kitchen island... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clubfoothead Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I exercise. Even that requires a 5:30 wake-up with the wife, kids and work. I listen to a ton of music too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polksalet Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Haven't played in 2+ years... What happened? When I saw you in Austin you were headed to a kickball game in the middle of a thunderstorm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
