Default What do you do for fun?

Hobbies? Any thing that takes your mind off the reason we're all here?

On good days, I paint...oil or watercolours. I used to teach art almost full time in my studio, but now pick up a brush and do a little for myself on good days. It's hard to teach when full of meds Staring into space trying to remember simple words is not good for credibility

I have horses too, and they make me get out of bed in the morning. Nothing like a deep nicker and a snort of horse porridge in your face to get the day started! While I can only do light feeding chores, I am still planning for the days when I can get the cross-country carriage out again and go driving through the woods and trails. My wonderful husband picks up the slack now...did I say how much I appreciate him?
