Before I started quilting, I was involved with the Girl Scouts, both at the troop and at the adult levels. I also taught First Aid/CPR for adults and children with the Red Cross, and I was on several committees at my church. Poor health has limited my involvement with all three of those groups. With an 8-hour workday (9, if you include lunch) and a 1-hour commute on both ends, and those ongoing health problems, I don't have much time to do anything outside the home. I have two quilt guild meetings, one quilt bee meeting and at least one Saturday quilt day, each month. My at home time consists of keeping up with housework, the regular cooking and cleaning, keeping touch with FB friends and family, reading for relaxation and trying to get in some sewing/quilting every day.
