  1. What about trying quilting?  For more information go to: http://www.appliquequiltdesigns.com


  2. Gosh, thats hard to say without knowing a thing about you!  How old are you, how much money can you put into your hobby, do you have kids at home that can get into your stuff,,  etc.  Maybe you can repost with more details??  But here are a few suggestions:  Model cars, reading, baseball cards, raising aquarium fish, gardening, woodworking, cooking, etc.....

  3. I belive your hobbie should be doing something you love. Men are starting to knit too. Not saying that you want to do that. I also design other things. Can you draw? Try taking pixs to the next level.

  4. Paper Quilling or Painting ;)))

  5. coin collecting. its the hobby which pays off in 20 years.

  6. how about building plastic models? which boy hasn't when their young?

  7. i suggest you to play computer at night..  

  8. if u have a someone special in your life spend time with them if not go get find one.

  9. Crochet!  It is fast and easy to learn and works up faster than knitting.  Joann Fabrics carries a DVD that is called Crochet Made East for $6.99.  Than us your 40% off coupon.  This DVD and a size G, H or J crochet hook and a couple of skeins of worsted weight yarn are really all you need to get started.  I suggest not making the color of the yarn too dark so that it is easier to see your stitches.  Use brights or lighter colors.  Get a couple of skeins so you can change colors as well.

    I find crocheting extrememly relaxing and once you learn how, you will be able to do it without really looking at your work too much so you can do it anywhere and even when there are a lot of distractions such as television blaring, kids running through the house, hubby snoring, etc.  I do it everywhere.  Doctors office, waiting in line places, anywhere you have to wait for someone or something.  This year I am making 3 strand afghans for all the men in the family (9 to be exact) and I really need to get off here and go work on them LOL.  Pretty soon I will go curl up and work on one.  Oh, these work up pretty fast, too!  I make them oversized for the big guys.  

    With a size Q hook and three strands of coordinating yarn, Chain 89.  Single crochet back.  Chain one and turn.  Single crochet back.  Do this for however many rows are necessary for this to be long enough to wrap under their feet if they are in the recliner and than make it long enough that it goes to their chins.  The men LOVE these.  I usually by the Lion brand Pound of Love or the Caron Pounders.  (Pounders meaning they have 16 ounces of yarn per skein).  Try this.  They are great for winter and are cushy enough to throw on the floor and curl up on.  Good luck!

  10. Movies, oline games....

    I think that's really easy for u to kill time.

    And here is the site for games:

  11. Watch DVDs. Watch all your favorites movies, comedies etc. You'll be relaxed. You can also try reading. Jogging can be relaxing too if you do it at a very comfortable pace & also you'll get to enjoy the fresh evening breeze.

  12. You could try Knitting or Crocheting, I find either one helps me relax when I've had a bad day and you can do it anywhere, I've even taken my projects to the doctors to do in the waiting room, to a relatives house, to the bedroom, while watching TV, to the hospital when I had my youngest after she would fall asleep sometimes I just couldn't. They really aren't that hard to learn especially with all the books and websights out there. Wal-Mart Usually has the I TOUGHT MYSELF TO KNIT kit or the I TOUGHT MYSELF TO CROCHET kit in the fabric and crafts area those kits come with everything you need to start except the yarn. And I think it is so neat to see something that you created with your own two hands.
