I have so many different hobbies, my DH is driven nuts by it. He can't keep up with what my current hobby is at any given point. My hobbies are bicycling, hiking, cooking, writing, reading, crocheting, cross stitching, drawing, scrapbooking, collecting recipes, photography, quilting, learning about how people lived during the 19th century and trying to incorporate the things that I can into my life, and eating chocolate (though I'm trying not to do that as much anymore)!
I love animals and help people with thir livestock just so I can be near them. We have three dogs, our little babies, and 7 finches. Within the next 2-3 years, we hope to start our own ranch.
One of my dreams is to have a homestead with a 3-4 room log cabin and live as they did back in the 19th century. Though I know that a small one room cabin on the back side of our land for very short excursions will have to do (since my DH would die in such a primitive setting for much longer than a day or two).
