hello

So the last few days I have been working on a few fairy gardens for my kids. I have been loving the experience and I find myself waking up excited to start the day just to work on the project. I also find that I have no urge to drink while working on them and I am more careful with my drinking that day. when I am hung over I never have the energy for hobbies so I can't be hung over. It got me thinking that I should really have more hobbies I enjoy. I have dedicated my life to my family and as a result I have put little effort into my own interests. I think if I develop more interest I will drink less out of boredom. I thought I would post here because I would love to know what everyone else does on their down time? What hobbies do you enjoy? How do you entertain yourself? I figure the more ideas I have the better and I am sure others might benefit as well.

Thanks in advance!!!!
