I think I've had too many hobbies to get my head around these past few months. This weekend I hauled out my jewellery making supplies and sat and wept as I couldn't even make a loop out of a piece of wire. I could have looked it up in my instruction book, but instead I rolled around on the living room floor, moaning. All the materials are still sitting there. It's something I want to be able to do, but I can't say that it's brought me any joy, yet. It feels like an unsurmountable chore.
Same with dance class - I dropped out because I don't care for the instructor. I've got costumes, music - and no desire to dance right now.
Same with book club - the "smart, engaging" group of women (to quote from one of the members) require greater committment from me to attend meetings regularly.
Don't ask about all the plants I've killed in my garden.
I still like to cook, and my growing size attests to that. Something just doesn't feel Right.
