Hobbies

One more post today.  Why?  Because I skipped a day (not that I actually plan on doing this daily) and this was on my mind and didn't really tie in nicely with the last post. 



I think I need a hobby.  My hobby, to date, has been baking.  I know I can find healthy baking recipes, but it seems to be counter-productive to my cause.  If I have food lying around my house, I WILL eat it.  I also think I've been eating due to boredom.  Boredom?  How can I possibly be bored with two kids around??  Well my three year old seems to have a good handle at occupying himself at times (or he's playing with his grandfather) and my baby just wants to roll and play with his toes.  So I find myself sitting here a lot, either being told I'm not driving my toy car just right, watching Cars for the umpteenth time, or telling the baby no no don't put THAT in your mouth. 



I need something that is for ME.  Something I can do to unwind while the kids are in bed or it's ugly out and they're otherwised occupied.  Something that'll keep my hands and mind occupied so I'm not shoving food into my face.  I just don't know what kind of hobby I should try.  I'm thinking maybe knitting or crocheting, but I dunno.  I guess it never hurts to try!

  1. Crocheting keeps me sane... Kind of.
    I find knitting way harder to put down and pick up.
