I liked cross-stitch particularly because you didn't have to know fancy stitches, you just had to be able to count.

My dad loved to crochet as a hobby but was never able to teach me. Scrapbooking? I admire those who can. Instead, though, I've been trying to organize all those boxes of photos to be digitalized (one of these days).

I have two crafty sisters and often feel like the clumsy duckling. My problem is that I'm too fidgety (much like a kenneled border collie). My hobby is running because it eases my mounds of anxiety (like a kenneled border collie). Like Roz, I like things that are active like hiking, biking, skiing.

All 500,000 of them! My first two children have their first years documented. The baby of the family has close to 10 months.
