I thought that I was the only one that had so many projects going on at the same time:

1. Quilting
2. Sewing for Grandkids
3. Gardening
4. Woodworking
5. Painting
6. Crocheting
7. Mowing our yard and weed eat for a neighbor and Mother-in-Law
8. Help Clean at the Church
9. Help a friend with Cabins
10. Play with our 3 dogs
11. Computer, (alot)
12. Set up Communion at Church

I do a little bit of each. Some days I can't do a whole lot because of my arthritis. So it depends how I feel and how I can get along, is what I choose for that day.When I feel good watch out, I go until I drop because I never know how long it will be before I can anything again.

1. Crochet
2. Embroidery (hand only)
3. Tatting
4. Spinning (drop spindle only -- DH won't get me a spinning wheel yet)
5. Want to try hand dying as soon as I can make a space
6. Want to learn trapunto
7. Canning
8. Baking
9. Genealogy
10. Scrapbooking

No wonder I can't get everything done!

Great post RedGarnet22!!! It's fun reading through them all!

For myself:
Gardening - the kids have teased me that soon my whole front yard will be flower gardens, it's close now. DH has also beome addicted to it too. :D
Reading - Read 1-3 books a week, of anything.
Yard sales & Estate auctions - we almost need to pull a trailor with us!
This Board - too much so sometimes! lol!!!
Canning - got back into it last summer, and want to do much more this summer.
Anything having to do with our kids & grandkids! :D
We're also quite involved with our church, and both of us are on our local AngelFood Ministries board, and are quite involved with that.
Soon to be drag racing again, as soon as my youngest son gets his car ready to go, is letting me drive it! :D
Bike riding
Walking with our dogs.....
