I need a hobby.

I've been working a bit around the house.
A lot.
Every day this week.
A lot.

Started on Monday with the back bedroom. Matt came over and helped me sort things to send to Goodwill or throw out or take to work or whatever. Get the stuff out of the house that I'm not going to use.

I have been continuing with the cleaning.

And I realized part of my problem is that I need a hobby.
*A* hobby.
I have 37 of them.
I need to narrow it down.
I need one hobby. Or maybe two.
I have Sculpey clay and tools for working it, although I rarely (never) use them.
I keep thinking that I will try making a few little things.
So I haven't been able to part with the supplies.
Since I have them. And don't want to go buy them again. But I am not using them. So far. I keep telling myself to get the stuff out and try it.
So I made a deal with myself. If I haven't used them by the end of the year, I will toss them all into the Goodwill box. I should add that the majority of the stuff came from Goodwill in the first place. I don't buy things like that at full price.

Drawing supplies. I use the hell out of those, but I have a lot of paper that's been drawn on. Some things I am fine with recycling, but there are things I have kept because of the whole inspiration thing. So I have the paper stacked in a couple places now instead of everywhere in the house.
Paper and pens and pens and pens and paper and paper.
Colored pencils.
Crayons.
Markers.
Tie dye stuff.
Bins of it. Bottles for the dye. Little jars with different colors in them. Plastic bins with white 'blanks'. When I find a shirt that might make a good one for dye, I get it. It's definitely time to stop that. I have way more than I will ever need.


I have a ton of things for work. All my Dr. Seuss animals and their little wooden bench they sit on. Toys. Books. More toys. Kid art stuff. Craft supplies that I've been hoarding for ages.

Time to get rid of a ton.
And get a hobby.
