I love having this thread where we LOL Sistuhs can just chat and get to know each other better.[]
 
 So here s my question:  what hobbies or interests do you like to pursue in your free time? (and I use that term loosely!)  I know that C wooder and G-whiz are into scrapbooking, for which they have my utmost admiration.  I m lucky if I can get my photos into a photo book![]  
 
 I have been teaching myself how to quilt, and just finished my first quilt last month--a twin for my stepson.  Only took me a smidge over a year to do it![]  I m also taking guitar lessons, and before we got Griffin, I used to be a volleyball maven (indoor and two-man sand).

 Good, Bill, tell that to Mike when we re at SLO next week.  BTW, congrats on 36 years.  Monday will be #15 for us.  []
 
 Lori, sewing (not quilts) and scrapping here.  (Although I think more time is spent NNCing.  Did I just make up a verb?)  []

Hello ladies!!
 
 What a great place to come hang out when the boys get too rowdy on the other threads. Such a warm, homey feel to the room []
 
 In answer to the topics of late, Kevin and I just celebrated our 11th anniversary last Friday, and other than teaching a bunch of nutty/hormonal fifth graders every day [][:@] (plus all the other jobs the principal has conned me into doing at school [: (]), Going to school AGAIN for my Masters/Reading Specialist Credential [&:], dealing with my own two little monsters (and one big one), I don t have time for ANY hobbies other than camping and maybe a book now and then.  Even so, life is good and I try to appreciate what I have now so I can appreciate retired life with no kids at home without regret [][]

what hobbies or interests do you like to pursue in your free time?

 I m slowing down...but still make baby blankets:  ususally flannel and flannel or flannel and polar fleece.  It started as a product to sell at Pow Wows, but now everyone wants me to make them with and without the native american designs. I am sitting looking at 50 yards of material and a local pow wow happening in 6 weeks.  
 I like to do kneedle work too.  embroidery, needlepoint (newly learned) .
 But mostly I swim, play with my granddkids and do jigsaw puzzles while I watch the Giants and A s.
  That s when I can get off the boards.
 thanks for asking!

Hubby and I are going on 14 years in June.  I am with Lori, it seems longer[:@]
 
 My hobbies include camping,  Scrapbooking, bowling and playing bunco.  Unfortunately, I don t get to do scrapbooking as often as I like.  Can only do it when I go to class.  Matthew (2 year old) would have my stickers spred from one end of the house to the other.   I think camping is the ultimate.  The weekdays are so hectic that our family never spends much quality time together but me make up for it when we camp.
