The need for a hobby is becoming more apparent to me. My blood brother picked up a new hobby: sewing. Yes, sewing. Not a manly hobby but still it gets the stress out. My neighbour picked up taking care of fish. So, for me I want to describe my perfect hobby right here:
-
It has to be creative. At the end of the activity, I've built something.
-
It has to be something physical. Doing the hobby must make my body move and make me get off my butt.
-
Can be indoor or outdoors -- doesn't matter. But it's getting colder -- would prefer to be indoors.
-
As much as possible, I don't want to be working with too much technology.
-
I need money to do the hobby.
Is going to the gym a hobby? I think not, that's separate from keeping yourself fit and healthy.
I saw an ad from the school near the city library. They offer a short course in floristry in one day. I am interested. Until then, I will concentrate on my backyard. It's full of weeds and I hate it to the bone. I will put energy into it this coming weekend. Buy my materials and make it good. I know how to get rid of weeds. All I have to do is act on it. Remove the fucking weeds already.
Here's the plan:
- Buy mulch.
- Buy a tool to get the weeds out.
- Use old newspapers to cover the ground and suffocate the weeds and the seeds.
- Put mulch on top of the newspaper to ensure the newspaper will not be disturbed.
I am excited.
