Title: As the evenings get shorter..................
Post by: maggie on October 15, 2008, 09:02:13 PM
So as i was coming home from work today, i noticed how quickly it had gotten dark and was just wondering what all you lovely ppl do of an evening to keep yourselves occupied?
Seriously bored and trying to think of a hobby thats inexpensive and fun?

I used to go to nightclasses Maggie. Did photography, MOUS and Web Design. A good way to get the long winter nights in.

I find that sitting on the couch watching tv, playing the ps and surfing around the net is quite fullfilling and worthwhile.

Something productive Maggie. TV is grand, but it's unfulfilling.

A couple of childer can take up a share of time in the evening, by the time they are fed, bathed and dressed for bed you might get a chance to watch the 9 o clock news !

Have a child. Hobbies, eating sitting down at a table, and adult conversation will soon seem like mirages from a distant past.

using the bathroom and eating my dinner in peace are in the past, 10 month old that is wired to the national grid takes up all spare time.
I used to restore old motorcycles,play football,fish,go to cinema, go to the gym and read.
Now, i have no time for anything with baby in the picture.

Maggie, in the same boat myself.  Started to play indoor soccer on Tues and Thurs night, so that breaks up those evenings.  Mondays and Wednesdays are very borring.  Home, cook dinner, wash dishes, surf 'tinterent, watch the box.  Much prefer the Tues and Thurs nights.  Fridays = high stool
