Right now, my favorite hobby is swimming.

 

I've been doing 30-35 lap's a day in my pool,

since about late july...I'm slowly getting into

the best shape of my life..and for a guy who

just turned 53, that's sayin' something. it's not easy.

 

My goal is to have a totally flat stomach, and abs

within 1-2 months. Since my pool is not heated, it's

gettin' colder and colder by the day. it's a shock the first

4 or 5 laps, but then you get used to it. Anyway, I'm forcing

my way in the pool every day, no mater what..even if it's 45 degrees!

Mahjong Titans (really more of an addiction)

What's that? Anything like the traditional game of mahjong?...which is THE game played at Blaze family gatherings. During those gatherings, members take turns at the mahjong table (or we have 2 tables set up, 4 people at each). PapaBlaze is talking crap and intimidating opponents, MamaBlaze is complaining that she's not getting good tiles to win, and every Blaze bro stuffs his face with meats and treats as he tells PapaBlaze to stop cheating and talking his crap. laugh.gif

It's not my hobby but it's good family fun. smile.gif

:syrinx: I play drums off and on (currently off) and have recently taken up the ukulele and piano.

 

 

:sundog: I enjoy raising flowers in my garden (mostly roses) and am an amateur arborist.

I keep tropical fish.

 

I am starting to pick up golf again.

 

I play tennis.

 

I like to shoot skeet with my shotgun or punch paper with one of my handguns at the gun range.

 

when the weather is bad, I like to put together jigsaw puzzles.

 

I enjoy yard work. Mowing, pruning flowerbeds. I like it when the outside of the house looks sharp.

Not enough time to do all of my hobbies, but I'm still trying.

 

I bought one of these a while back. Still trying to master it.

Do you race your drone like the guys in the vid?

I'm not nearly that good. FPV is very disorienting and I can't see things in the video goggles well enough to fly like that. I probably just need more time to do it. I do have a nephew who can fly through the trees like that.

I didn't know you did the longboard. I'm imagining you coming down 207 at 50mph causing a traffic jam. :LOL:

I've slowed down considetably! It'd be dumb to break a rib or something at 50.

Hello, I'm 51. :)

 

Anyway, it only hurts when I sneeze.

 

 

And cough.

 

 

And laugh.

 

 

And get out of bed.

I used to write a lot. I published something a while back. The Starchild thread at Chris Moore's website actually belongs to me. The one with 100,000+ views. Yup, that was mine. :)

I love writing and I've started over 20 novels. Getting them finished is quite an accomplishment.

Congrats! That sounds like a mountain of work.

I've finished two and am getting a draft of #3 together. Then I start #4! Whee!

I only do it to entertain myself, but good lord it's addictive!

I enjoy sitting around the house smoking Pall Malls and pulling the wings off flies.

 

Cool! Do you make art out of the butts and wings?
